Color Genetics and Combinations

Tamagotchi can change their body colors based on food, the parents, and random genetics in the Tamagotchi On and Tamagotchi m!x.

Body Colors

Tamagotchi colors range from base, saturated colors to combined colors. Regular colors include white, pink, red, yellow, blue, and black. Combined colors include orange, pale yellow, green, pale blue, purple, light grey, and dark grey.

Color Genetics

From parents or grandparents

Tamagotchi can inherit colors directly from either parent or their grandparents. It is also possible that a color may jump from one body type to another. As an example, the color can jump from a grandparent's body color to a grandchild's back accessory.

The color of the tamagotchi may also change as they grow up. For example, they may start as one parent's colors but once they reach an adult, they may be the other parent's colors or a mix of the two.

Color mixing

Tamagotchi can also create new colors by mixing existing colors that occur in their lineage.

Combined colors:

• Orange = Red + Yellow
• Pale Yellow = White + Yellow
• Green = Yellow + Blue
• Pale Blue = White + Blue
• Purple = Red + Blue
• Light grey = White + Black?
• Dark grey = White + Black?

Additional color combinations:

• Pink = White + Red
• Orange = Yellow + Black
• Orange = Pink + Yellow
• Blue = White + Green
• Blue = Yellow + Purple
• Purple = Pink + Green

Color Outlines

Colored outlines are not a gene, instead acting as a sort of "paint" on the tamagotchi. They can only be passed down on to the next generation if the user's tamagotchi already has a colored outline on a device where it's possible to have one.

• Light blue outline (Pastel Meets): At the park in Easter Island, the tamagotchi can randomly meet Usatchi who will give them a Big Egg. This will be stored in the special category in the item menu and using the item will give the tamagotchi a light blue outline. Using the Big Egg again will turn off the blue outline.
• Red outline (Fantasy Meets, Wonder Garden On): At the Card Paint option in Wonder Garden, the tamagotchi can randomly be given a red outline or black body color. Unlike the light blue outline, this change will only last until the tamagotchi takes a bath.
