      Tbh that could totally be part of the inspiration. But I feel like if it was the main concept, the log would still be tan on the inside like actual white eucalyptus?
      The white + *pink* just feels like its meant to read as soft to me. and combined with the "sleepy cuddly teddybear" idea of the pokemon, a pillow just makes too much thematic sense

    I would make a couple of counterpoints to two of your explanations:
    - Silvally's shiny could also easily be a reference to Shiny Arceus, which was also gold colored.
    - Shiny Mimikyu is likely meant to evoke the original 8-bit monochrome Game Boy games (when not played on the original lime green screen at least), especially since Sun/Moon were the 20th anniversary games.

    Guzzlord is probably based on the theoretical white hole, if the regular version is based on a black hole. It's theorized that if a black hole is a point where nothing can escape, not even light, that a white hole would be the reverse: light would constantly pour from it and nothing could get in. Some people hypothesize that if you go through a black hole you come out of a white hole in a different universe, which would work well with the theme of the games.

    Fun fact about Vikavolt: it's also a reference to the Vic Viper space ship from the Gradius series. The looks, the names, and its description are all similar. The shiny doubles as a reference to another space ship in the same series: the Jade Knight. It has the exact same color scheme. Furthermore, the animations from gen 7 and on of all of Vikavolt's best attacks look similar to attacks the various player space ships use in the Gradius series.
    It's a wonderful reference that not many people catch, but I absolutely love the Gradius series, so seeing Vikavolt made my super happy!

    Jangmo-o's shiny line is referencing the hoarding of heart scales, a coveted and collectable item in the Pokémon universe. It probably goes gold to symbolise the higher wealth and status compared to non-shiny jangmo-o. Although you can't sell heart scales for much, compared to nuggets of gold in the game, they ARE worth very exclusive services that money can't buy so in a way they're priceless, way above the worth normal currency can match.

    Togedemaru is based on a hedgehog. Most hedgehogs are a Grey color often mixed with brown (some appear mostly brown but some can be very dark grey, likely what togedemaru is referencing.) Blonde hedgehogs are another color, and common among pet hedgehogs. Blondes can be anywhere from mostly white to very yellow-blonde. The quills of an Albino hedgehogs can also sometimes be an off-white, and appear more blonde.
