New to Unity, doing Ruby's Adventure tutorial, help with sprite animation please

A few days ago I decided to pick up Unity and so far it's been going great. I'm already comfortable with Java, so C# isn't too foreign to me, and the editor is intuitive. I'm up to the Sprite Animation part of the tutorial, and I've followed all the instructions exactly. When the animator is not attached, the sprite appears between the boxes as expected and moves as expected(left to right), it's just not animated. When I add the animator to the robot sprite, it offsets the sprite up by about half a unit(but not the hitbox!). Here's a bird's-eye view of my situation:

I've redone the animator controller for the robot. If there's something wrong with the animation itself I can't figure it out.

Thank you! For anyone also looking for the solution to this one, after some digging I found the solution in the thread here:

The problem was that the original imported sprite did not have its pivot set to bottom. The animation's pivot is set to bottom, causing a discrepancy of half a sprite height between the location of the sprite and the expected location for its animation.

 

Thanks for this, I kept trying different things and even had to reimport stuff before I found this thread. Thanks @SaltpeterTaffy for posting that.
