The real color is revealed next to yours and scored out of 10. Five rounds make a run.
About this mode
Thirty creatures from the first generation, each stripped of the color that made it recognisable.
Gen 1 designs were built around a single dominant color, chosen so a creature could be told apart on a screen the size of a matchbox. That constraint makes them ideal to guess: you know the shade exists, you have seen it a thousand times, and yet reproducing it from memory is another matter — Pikachu leans warmer than most people remember, and Charizard is closer to peach than to red.
Examples from this mode
- Pikachu
- Charizard
- Squirtle
- Gengar
- Snorlax
- Gyarados
- Lapras
- Mew
How scoring works
Each guess is scored out of 10 based on how far your color sits from the real one. Five rounds are averaged into a final score, so one weak round does not decide the run. The reveal after every guess is the part that makes you better — it shows whether you missed on hue, on saturation or on brightness.
