To be fair that's one model from a decade-old Wii game. More recent and consistent portrayals from the main games, anime, TCG and other spin-off material are clearly tan/brown. I doubt that the inspiration for this alternate colour is from one cherrypicked portrayal of a Pokemon that isn't the base Pokemon (some Pokemon do use official non-shiny alternate colours that originate from Stadium or old sprites, but only their own), especially when the shade of orange is better matched to Scrafty's orange than the PBR Infernape colour anyway. The skin definitely isn't Infernape.

== Chrom's alt colours ==
Currently we don't have much in regards to Chrom's alts, so I'd like to throw my hat into what they might be referencing. For reference, I'm using [https://youtu.be/ROd0H43R78I?t=2m6s this video] to see the full costumes.
* Default
* This might be [[fireemblemwiki:Walhart|Walhart]], due to the deep red throughout, as well as the black undertones.
* This is almost certainly [[fireemblemwiki:Gangrel|Gangrel]]. The dark main coat with gold highlights, as well as a yellow cape on both sides just screams Gangrel in my eyes.
* [[fireemblemwiki:Owain|Owain]] (already on the page)
* The dark main colour along with the brownish/orange highlights, and dark blue inner cape may reference [[fireemblemwiki:Gaius|Gaius]], one of his support options, though this one's more tough to say.
* This is very likely [[fireemblemwiki:Sumia|Sumia]], one of Chrom's possible love interests. That shade of purple and pink highlights are unmistakably hers.
* [[fireemblemwiki:Kellam|Kellam]] (already on the page)
* This is the most difficult for me to ascertain. The black main colour along with the purple highlights may be referencing [[fireemblemwiki:Brady|Brady]], one of Chrom's possible future children, but there are quite a few black/purple colour schemes around ''Awakening''. Plus, the light blue buckles are throwing me for a loop.
If anyone has any other ideas, please throw em down. [[File:MarthHeadSSBU.png|20px|link=User:Xamad]][[User:Xamad|Xamad]] ([[User_talk:Xamad|talk]]) 14:18, 4 December 2018 (EST)
