The Lustery Brilliance of Vivillon

Of all existing Bug-type Pokémon, Vivillon has to be one of the most, if not the most unique Pokémon species of the type. The reason for this is certainly its multitude of patterns that are begotten from certain locations, in one sense of the games they're featured in and of the real world as an extension of that. There's a certain brilliance in all of this - in particular, a "lustery" one - and with that, I've decided to take a post to discuss that quality.

The luster would definitely come from those multitude of patterns, which exemplify a number of different colors that aren't often seen in Bug-type Pokémon that are similar in form, even though they are mostly present in the wings. There is additional luster in the form of "powder" since the species family is known for its ability to use "powder" moves, which in certain ways would enhance the appearance of the patterns on the wings.

Some could say that the brilliance would look a little "papery" because of the way they look; they're almost like the motifs found on certain kites, especially homemade ones for example, which are often made out of paper. Yet the luster and brilliance are still there, and the "papery" description may not be all that apt, and the "lustery" description remains the more apt one given the characteristics mentioned above.

I originally wanted to combine this discussion with an external aspect that is actually the "prompt" for the discussion itself, but after looking further into it, I found that the "prompt" may not be all that great to be included in the discussion. The above is actually what remains of the discussion "prompt", and it may be further considered a bit of a "reminder" for what makes the discussion as it is for the relevant Pokémon species.

All Pokémon of the Bug type dazzle in all their own ways, but the ways of Vivillon, also pertaining to the species family of which it is a part, are particularly dazzling. It is certain that all those wing patterns that it has are part of that dazzling deal, and so may be other aspects related to it and its species family. That dazzle is certainly the lustery brilliance that the wing patterns bring and in turn how that would be seen and perceived by all.
