Oddy @ Loki: "PINK LEAVES?! JEALOUS! I need pink leaves!! How did you do that? How do I get pink? I wish for pink please. Only green. :( "
"Hmm... little one, I'm no Jirachi, so I can't make your leaves pink, sadly." The hybrid smiled gently, her tail swishing in thought. "Well... I've heard of something called a Pinkan Berry. They say if you eat those, you can turn yourself pink. I don't think I've been to the island where they grow... but that's okay. That's not really how I got these pink leaves and purple markings, anyway."
"I'm sure you've heard that us Leafeon are similar in cell structure to plants, so it's no surprise that we're affected by our environments like plants are. However... it's not just sunlight and water levels that can change how we look in that regard. There are plenty of cases of Leafeon who have changed colouration to mimic their gardens and forests. Of course..." She cupped her left hand to her cheek. "That usually takes a few centuries, which, thankfully, I've had since I planted the dogwood in my grove."
"I suppose I have that tree to thank for this foliage. All the pinks and purples and whatnot. I don't think you want to wait centuries to get pink leaves, though... maybe you should look for a Jirachi at this rate." She chuckled. "Or Pinkan berries..."
