The first 2 letters of the Pokémon's name goes with the first to numbers of the ID number to decide the Pokémon's color. The 3rd, 4th and 5th letter goes with the 3rd 4th and 5th number in the ID number to decide the shade it will be. The upper case letters make the result color darker. lower case letters make the result color lighter.

Depending on their nickname

It has this nasty puke green color... it makes me sick to see it

(Mr. Shady what's a G-string?) It's yarn Claire

I enjoy experimenting with colors, and I've found one that I haven't heard anyone mention before. I named my Vaporeon Hope after one of my favorite hamsters who also has that name, and it has green ears and an almost purplish tint on the outer rim! I don't know how much this has to do with its name or it's ID number.

I've found changing the capital letters and adding exclamation points can make a difference too. For example I named my Articuno Breeze, and it was indistinguishable from an ordinary Articuno but when I added and exclaimation point it had a slightly darker shade.

I named my pidgot Tweety prefectly ordinary until I capitalized TWEETY and now it's a very distinct darker brown color. So name your pokemon anything, you never know what you may get!

I'm trying to forget myself, but if I do where will I be when I need me?

Out of Desperation, courage is born

My jolteon was named PSION and it was light green; I changed it to AMPERE and it became a nice dark amber.

My favorite crazy-color pokemon is my mewtwo named DIABLO. His whole body is shades of dark blue and white, and his eyes glow green when he attacks. Looks so cool when using thunderbolt.

BTW, does the version of Pokemon you're playing matter in what color your Pokemon are going to be? Those Pokemon are on my Yellow cart.

Just a thought....

------------------
[EDIT]Its probably relative to the default name, so, for example, an Alakazam named CLAKAZAM would be about as much lighter as a Lapras named NAPRAS. That would explain why a Ninetales named TAILFLARE and a Rhydon named STOMPER would be lighter and a Gengar named CREEPER would be darker. I still have no ideas about the ID#s though, not enough samples.... Same thing with Lapras named Waterslam being lighter, Jolteon named PSION being lighter, and when named AMPERE being darker. There are some exceptions, though. Either the name thing is more complex or ID#s are causing this.[/EDIT]

I named a Koffing "GasBall" and it had the same colors as Koffstor.

* GLOOMBOY: The Vileplume Trainer *

This is what I've concluded through observation:

I have three Mewtwo:
(They have the same Trainer # and Name)

SPECIALIST--> Reddish-Purple
LASTCHANCE--> Reddish-Purple
EL CHEAPO-->Standard Mewtwo color

Notice Specialist and Last Chance have the same number of letters and they are all in CAPS. EL CHEAPO has CAPS, less letters and a space in his nickname.
Color must be dependent the # of letters, CAPS or Lowercase, and if the name has inversed syllable like Pidashra (Rapidash).
Probably symbols also affect it, but I haven't tried it out yet.

I'm going to test it with different OT names, OT #'s, Capitals, lowercase, the works.
(I'll use Gameshark to modify the #'s, names, etc.)

I'll post up the results when I'm done researching.

I started researching that way, and it is a shit load of work.

Reaserch halted a bit due to the fact that Charmeleons have subtle color tones that can't be so readily recognized at oak's lab. That small fact screwed my data up. Hmm I'm going to look for a pokemon with more color tones that aren't so damn subtle to restart research.

Well, back to work!

I also have a Pink Rattata named UELB. I wonder what it'll look like when it evolves...

The other two have a more orange tone than usual, but it's not as excessive as the green.

Also, for a more varied spectrum of colour, try a bulbasaur. They can end up looking REALLY weird.

Give me its OT Trainer name and ID number, and I'd be happy to shark it, then evolve it and tell you. I'd also need to know if it's a yellow version pikachu or one from the red and blue. Anyone else who is curious about what favorite pokemon would look like in Stadium if they evolved it, I'd be happy to do the same.
