Closing off this week of "gimme five" discussions related to Café Remix, I want to discuss another set of subjective favorite things. I had actually intended to bring up "favorite outfits" again, but quite a few things from that are still applicable, so I couldn't bring it up in the same vein. Luckily, I can (could) restructure it a bit and still talk about favorite outfits... just of different colors and different applicability to certain Pokémon.
Those Pokémon have the basic staff outfit, but they have colors not from the usual leveling. In fact, they were created by Leah (the café owner) as part of certain events; according to her, she is trying out new colors for the staff outfit, and certain Pokémon - associated with the events, surely - get to try them out first. They may or may not be extended to other staff members, but in the meantime, they're still fanciful for the staff Pokémon that do get them.
One of these new colors is called "stylish night sky", which is a dark navy blue color that is reminiscent of a good sky at that time of day. Rayquaza and Inkay are the representative Pokémon of this outfit color, and it quite befits them, with the former having its domain where the color is, and the latter being contemplative within that space. It may be that the color has its own intrigue in addition to interest.
Leah also made the "stylish spring" color, and its recipients are (or were) Flabébé of the Red Flower sort and Fidough of the Shiny sort. It is perhaps a coincidence that the two Pokémon are those of different sorts, but then again they may be quite symbolic of variety. The color itself is also a rather "punchy" or "highlighting" yellow-green and may be considered befitting of being symbolic of variety as with the two Pokémon.
As a last color I'm featuring, there is the "stylish plum" color. It is a dark purple that is quite reminiscent of the namesake fruit, and Maushold and Dolliv were chosen to wear it. These two are from the ninth generation, and the newness and novelty of the color stands out along with the two species as part of the latest cohort. At the very least, they also bear the "stylish" aspect pretty well alongside the other colors above.
If the "stylish" moniker is of any indication, it is that these outfits can become select favorites of players without them being different in appearance from the regular outfits, aside from the color. Such is definite for the three colors I've featured above, and it may well be true for the other colors that I haven't featured - and likely possibly to come as well. And after some time, Leah might also gain newfound appreciation for them to expand them even further.
