idk if you know this but orange and brown are the same color. “Brown” is just orange that’s very dark and so our brain treats it as it’s own color but when you darken the surroundings to be darker it becomes clear that it’s just orange.

[@DreamingOwnWorld]

Fun fact: many parts of the world don’t have a word for the colour orange. Even English only gained the term “orange” and started applying it to the colour when the orange fruit arrived from the Mediterranean; things that were orange were called red. I’m not going to claim to be an expert in Japanese, but as someone learning the language I did find it interesting that despite “mikan” being the term they use for the mandarin orange fruit, their term for the colour orange is “orenji” - it is highly likely that the concept of the colour orange is a western thing; thus, like old Englishmen before they saw the orange fruit, orange colours are designated as red. And the word orange has now lost all meaning to me 😝

[@andrewince8824]

It was a Naranja, originally an Arabic word. Over time it became a Noranj then finally an orange. It paralleled another quirk in the development of English. At one time you'd try not to get bitten by a nadder. Now you try to avoid the bite of an adder. Yep, an is a newish word hence its bizarre use prior to words beginning with a vowel. English is one of a tiny number of languages with such a quirk.

[@tatianavignudelli8607]

[@Omnamorudraya23]

​@@andrewince8824 Originally a Sanskrit word, not Arabic.

[@MumboJ]

I'm from England and I still don't consider orange to be a real colour. I've argued with my friends on multiple occasions, but so many board game pieces or video game team colours have a "red" piece that is very much orange, because a fully saturated red would look too harsh (or possibly be too expensive to dye idk), but nobody ever questions it because our perception of colour is all relative anyway. If you have Orange, Blue, Green, and Yellow pieces/teams, people will automatically refer to the Orange colour as "Red" without realizing it. Don't even get me started on Brown, which is literally just Dark Orange.

[@herowither12354]

Magikarp and Kingler are the same color, but you said Magikarp is red and Kingler is orange. Also, dark orange is visibly similar to brown, and red and orange are similar too. So similar that half the shades of red and orange get mixed up with each other.

Elgyem being in blue is kinda baffling to me personally because it kinda looks like a pastel mint kinda color in my eyes, and also it'd just be more fitting to be in green given its namesake is based off the term "LGM", Little *Green* Man And even if y'wanna brush that off as being a purely localization deal, in a similar vein to Mr. Mime having the masculine honorific despite being able to be female [even if the name was before genders were properly added in the following Generation], Elgyem's original Japanese name is Ligray, so going off of that, it should be grey like you originally assumed

On your pokemon shield you could do an eeveelution challenge: every time you beat a gym you need to add an eevee to your team, which will be evolved later. By the end of the playthrough, your whole team will be eeveelutions. Every pokemon on your team must be a different eeveelution.

[@edelweiss8598]

For the sake of argument; in Japan, blue and green were considered one colour, "ao", for a very, *very* long time. Even after the word for green, "midori," was introduced, plenty of things that are green are still referred to with the word "ao." This more flexible outlook on the two colours can be used to explain bronzor and bronzong: bronze, having high copper content, oxidizes green. Bronzor and bronzong, being an ancient bronze mirror and bell respectively, are obviously oxidized. Thus, the pokemon must be green, despite the colour of the design being what we would call blue. Copperajah vs. vikavolt is the same thing: oxidized copper is green, so the copperajah is green. Vikavolt is *not* oxidized copper, so it's blue. \o/

I will die on this hill: *ELGYEM IS GREEN!* *GREEN!!*

[@mrgirafarig8100]

Well it should be green but it’s way more blue for some reason.

[@cintronproductions9430]

Its name is even pronounced like LGM, which means Little Green Man!

[@WhiteRaven696]

It’s literally LGM, aka the Little GREEN Men. So yeah, it’s a pale mint green.

Nobody: Michael: wears colour tinted glasses while judging colours

[@xBloodxFangx]

There are sunglasses that are tinted so the sun doesn’t hurt your eyes but you can see regular color and not the tint

[@Leo-ws3bp]

@@xBloodxFangx sunglasses are black, absorbing all coulours equally, but his glasses are orange-ish, mainly absorbing blue, which makes everything an orange-ish tint

[@xBloodxFangx]

@@Leo-ws3bp and you can have that tinted orange color AND see through them with normal color. They do make them like that.

[@Leo-ws3bp]

@@xBloodxFangx no, the whole point is that it blocks out blue colour, because that hurts your eyes the most. That's why most android phones have the option to apply an orange colour filter in the drop down menu.

Maybe play through shield with only shield exclusive Pokemon? Could be an interesting playthrough, even if it's not really a challenge.

[@dr.sajidmadethisaccount579]

Yea tru

[@AidaN....]

That's actually a really good idea

[@Zman2552]

Do that but add more to it by making it a nuzlocke

[@angelfan2009]

that would be a good idea.

[@shahanajabeen3028]

Oooh

[@therod789]

You could do a play through challenge of only using Shield exclusive Pokemon.

[@DementedDoritoOfdoom]

Your pfp Is cursed

[@dawsonglawe5810]

I personally already did it with sword instead of shield. I included flapple in it (at least once it evolved) because flapple really can only be gotten in Sword without trading.

[@edmg7]

Just catch a Galarian Corsola and give it an eviolite. Easy playthrough.

[@JKsetsuna]

i was gonna comment this i think it would be good

[@gabriellockwood2780]

I got 2 copies of SwSh each lmao 🤣 I had placed a preorder, changed Debit//Credit Cards, and THOUGHT I cancelled the first order. Ordered a second pack nearly 9~10 months later, got 2 packs, and now I have a copy of each for my Switch AND Switch 'lite'.

[@Gaeb1207]

Chimecho is actually blue[a little bit] in MS Paint said it was "Aqua" and "Light Turqoise"

[@moochuckle1182]

I just realized that Mikey is wearing his gamer goggles that have a orange tint, so he could have been seeing some colors wrong or something

[@maxjoaquin2883]

Moochuckle i think its a real life version of random glasses in sun and moon

[@mickenzietucker440]

🤣🤣🤣 i thought about that too

[@ellienugent3120]

DEFINITELY. Several times I would have debated with him on the colours. Especially when he ran into the same or similar colouring but said it was a different colour, *sigh* Whatever. A lot of these are overcontroversial anyways.

[@rafaksionek8377]

True he said haxourous was green

[@yurui1237]

Me with color blindness: "Yes that's red, no problem here" Michael: "That's not red, that's orange/pink" Maybe the one to sort the Pokemon by colors was color blind too

[@mystora7159]

What color is your (and mine) profile picture for you?

[@nattyegdelp9663]

Hahaha XD

[@mjincorporation30]

@KiwiPower Green yours is a bright green and his is a navy blue

[@jacksonvaughn2111]

As someone else who’s colorblind idk why I’m watching this yet it’s so interesting

[@boocrimson7720]

His is navy blue but like dark. His is the swellow honchkrow and murkrow colored navy blueish black. I will die on the hill that those birds blue tint aside should have all been in black cause it was that thing where it's supposed to be black but they gave it a bit of color to make it have that kinda feather glow birds have in the sun. And the one who asked the colors yours is between like a green apple green a true green and a lime green and has that like neon highlighter color brightness to it. So for me it's hard to tell the difference but I am not colorblind so that doesn't answer your question properly XD

[@kez092]

I dont know what’s worse, the fact that bronzor is in green and milotic is in pink, or the fact that Mikey pronounces Minccino as “min-seen-oh” like.. ITS A CHINCHILLA. ITS NOT A “CHIN-SILL-UH”
