Shoutout to whoever let Litleo finally lose the staring contest!!! Yay yippee!!!
Also I really like the new albino and melan colors :D And the base sprites themselves for Pyroar especially. The smooth swish on female Pyroar's mane?!?!? She's slaying!
I do think I prefer the sort of cooler snowy white for the albinos and the more saturated blue and purple on the melan quite a bit. I'll admit I was a liiiittle worried but everything turned out quite nice imo! I looove albino Litleo's little blue nose, it's very cute.
I do like the new furfrou sprites. I’m not mad because the melan colours still do look nice >_>
The pharaoh trim is my fave melan! They look gorgeous.
I appreciate the different colours for the trims, personally. I know it's just dye but also dye can behave differently on different colours of hair/fur!
from what i can tell, some of the more blatant colour shifts might have been due to limited colour palettes? there are THREE blue trims after all, and trying to get 12 different shades can be difficult without leaning in one direction or the other on the colour scale. this is where the slightly more indigo la reine trim would be coming in, the more cyan star, and the lot more purple pharaoh
just my 2 cents, though

Recently in pokemon Home the color changes slightly, with shiny trims being lighter than the ordinary coloration
I can see Çelestanê's point that, as it's fur dye, the colours of the trims didn't necessarily need to change; but it's not necessarily a bad change in my book. It's not too terribly drastic. The new melan Pharaoh is the only one I'm not a fan of, blends a little too well, but I was always gonna go for melan Debutante anyway, so no big loss.
Saying that, I might go for melan Star or Kabuki instead now? Very pop-y, those ones.
They/them, for simplicity. Beathan sprite; egg sprites from Bulbapedia; avatar; Acacia sprite by me; Bee from Pokefarm Advent
I looove the new melans for litleo, as well as the albino!! Plus the fact that it's no longer staring directly into my soul lol.
Buuttt honestly not sure how to feel about the some of the new melan furfrous.
Some of the new melans have been awesome with contrasting colors that step away from the recent trend, but with these, some of them honestly feel like we're getting back into that "muddy melan recolor" territory imo.
Some of them do the opposite, like the heart trim! I quite like that one! But for instance, debutante:
It went from a gorgeous contrast to olive tones which give it a completely different feel. :(
Personally I also liked the face color better originally, it makes the contrast nicer and makes more sense to me personally since melanism would make the face/feet darker, whereas now, the face/feet of the melan are lighter than the original.
(New melan compared to regular, non s/a/m sprite.)
But I totally get not wanting to stick solely to irl logic with colors! It just made my brain feel good and I liked the way it meshed with the colors.

as someone who wasn't on PF1...Hydreiglitch looks so cool! I've just started the event but the new Variants are really cool :3
new to forums, still learning
I like to talk about magical animals called Pokemon
can get emotional easily but that's ok since I love you all anyway
my icon is from Pokemon Cafe Mix btw! Such a cute game~
I absolutely can't believe the S/A/M forms were found this quickly (Also apparently a melan delta??, whoa and dragon type the best type), I haven't even finished my scours lol
