I see a mention of an orange palette for Pit. I'm just wondering when and where this was shown? It wasn't at E3 and I don't remember seeing it in a POTD.--[[User:Raph the Great|Raph the Great]] ([[User talk:Raph the Great|talk]]) 02:38, 29 June 2014 (EDT)

::But it does resemble Takamaru, it may not look ''exactly'' like Takamaru, but it resembles him nonetheless. In fact, I actually don't see that as white mage, (and I am a fan of Final Fantasy) so it might as well be mentioned.

::: Lickilicky has a pink body, lighter pink tongue, and yellow accents. Just like Greninja's swap. cool. Aerodactly has a whitish gray body and dull purple wings just like Charizard's swap. No go. How is that more of a stretch? I don't understand the distinction you're making.

::::In Generations 4 and 5, Aerodactyl's body is more grey than white. That's probably what I was thinking of. Looking at that, I say go ahead and add it.

:::::Also, how does Charizard's blue coloration resemble Golbat. Sure, the color might be similar, but the rest has no resemblance. Plus, we still have no mention of Aerodactyl yet, and Palutena's blue only resembles Pandora in that they're both blue. Other than that, no similarities. Also, I see Zelda's pink sprite as resembling her Ocarina of Time color scheme, but no mention of that. But why in the world does Greninja's purple color say that it resembles its Shiny colors, when in fact, it doesn't resemble it in any way. This page needs some work to be done.

::::: Golbat is blue with purple wings. We all know Charizard doesn't actually look like a Golbat. The reasoning on Zelda's pink swap is that its the only one that gives her a blue trim on the embroiderers on the bottom of her dress. The only Zelda's who have blue on the bottom of their dresses are ALttP and ALBW. All others tend to have purple, red, or dull grey gold trims. I'll put in the Aerodactly update. <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:Allsalts|Allsalts]] ([[User talk:Allsalts|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Allsalts|contribs]]) 21:57, 29 October 2014 (EDT)</small>

::::Post here with what you think each of Pikachu's costumes should be named. As with all other characters, try to keep names to one-word simple colours (red, blue, white), move to more complex colours if necessary (chartreuse, lavender), and only move to non-colours if there's no alternative (see Jigglypuff and Shulk).

== Find Mii/StreetPass Quest ==
The stage [[Find Mii|Find Mii/StreetPass Quest]] has a mechanic where the [[Dark Emperor]] powers up all characters wearing a particular color at once. Preliminary testing has shown that the color of the costume matters. I assume this is based on the 12 colors you can pick for your Mii (Black, Brown, Light Blue, Blue, Light Green, Green, Pink, Red, Orange, Purple, White, Yellow), like in the game Find Mii/StreetPass Quest. Since this is relevant to costumes, I think it should be listed here. I'm not exactly sure how it should be, but my first thought is to title the colors as whatever Find Mii/StreetPass Quest classifies them as, then add any other necessary note in parentheses after it to distinguish from other costumes from the same character. Of course, it's going to be tricky to start adding this before all of the color groups are established. Note that the game never actually states the color, so it's necessary to pick obvious characters and use them as reference points (Kirby and Yoshi are particularly good for this). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:01, 29 October 2014 (EDT)
:Interesting - this would be similar how Brawl's tournament mode uses twelve colours to denote costume (though Brawl has grey instead of a second green). If that's the case, we may be able to wait until the Wii U version comes out - if its tournament mode does the same thing as Brawl's does, we can start by assuming that "tournament mode colour" and "Dark Emperor magic colour" are the same, until a piece of evidence shows up proving otherwise. If the Brawl palette swap page is any indication though, we'll carry on naming costumes with colours that make sense, as opposed to just sticking with what they display, and just noting the game-decided colours in the image and/or text.

::Hmm, if tournament mode could do that, that would be useful. The reason I thought naming them with the colors from Find Mii/StreetPass Quest would be advantageous is that it would remove the subjectivity (although the parenthetical notes would still be subjective). On your note about the Brawl page though, it doesn't seem to note the tournament mode colors at all, so I'm not sure that that's a fair comparison. I don't really feel that strongly about displaying it in the way I suggested though. Also, I have now realized that you could easily use actual Miis to compare colors against, which each fall into known color groups. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 15:08, 29 October 2014 (EDT)
:::The images on the Melee and Brawl pages have coloured bars beneath each option that show its tournament mode colour. It is true that subjectivity is bad, but I'd argue that confusion is worse - Brawl says that Peach's Daisy costume is "orange" (obviously yellow) while Ike's and Snake's defaults are "light blue/cyan" (nonsensical).
