I am honestly wishywashy on the idea of changing the names. People who want to complain, will always complain. People who are simply confused can be helped. I think an in-depth explanation of what albinos/melans are in a tutorial would clear up a lot of confusion. Every single Nintendo Pokémon game has specific cut scenes/tutorial that go into explaining new mechanics and new terminology used in the game. Pokefarm has relied on a lot of self guided reading into things or community guided through word of mouth. There are still mechanics I am learning about because it’s takes a lot more self exploration in my opinion. But all of that being said I could possibly suggest albinos being called “pastels” or something along the lines of that. But doing so may cause for some sprites to be redone if they do not fall into the category of being high value and low saturation. I’m not too big on art terms so I am unsure what the opposite or pastel would be. Possibly “chroma”? I hope some other users have some good ideas!
