I found there are four different types of shading in pixel arts (at least I think).

1. rainbow (basically from color to color while shading. example: https://www.minecraftskins.com/skin/12767815/hope-of-morning/)

2. directional (mainly used for curvature).

3. diffuse (seems at random)

4. line (just what it sounds like)

this one is extremely important. with it, you can create depth and curvature. the most important part is understanding the object you're trying to create.

further examples are

the tree from the tree that fell in fall
