- With confirmation Pearl served Pink Diamond, let's revisit a previous theory of Pearl not being Pink's first Pearl...and why it's more prevalent than ever.

The Roundtable Noice vid
This a very intresting theory
Lots of big words your smart like me
The Roundtable It's all very interesting to think about but in terms of her character I don't think it really matters. I don't think the revelations about her relationship with Pink Dimond negate her character growth throughout the rest of the show. Her growth from being almost aggressively reserved to being more open and understanding to other people is more interesting to me than the reason she decided to rebell against Homeworld to begin with.
Hmm, but what if our Pearl was actually White Diamond's Pearl at some point? I mean think about her personality. Even in the scene where she expresses her doubt that Pink's plan would work she's expressing her worrier's personality (as I call it). I don't remember if it was you Vox or if it was SliceofOtaku but one of you theorized at one point that White might end up playing the role of a grandmother (whereas Blue played the role of a mother and Yellow played the role of a father), and what do Grandmothers do but worry about their grandchildren and dote upon them, which is much like how we see our Pearl act with Steven
Diamonds: Let's give Pink a smart Pearl to help her.
Pearl: *learns how to wield two swords and help Pink start a rebellion*
Diamonds: No wait.
Jell-O 101 I hope someone draws this now.
KanaHyoshi yes
What an amazing short theory
Lol
This is exactly what i was thinking xD
THANK YOU holy shit. I've been saying this since _forever,_ but no one wants to pick up on the obvious hints that she's not her original pearl, for some reason? It makes me kinda mad tbh like,, why does pink pearl have to be shoved under the rug like that?? Y'all are doing her dirty man smh
Like seriously, why y'all being so rude to pearl lmao
also do yoU LIKE BMC
Yeah C: I also agree actually XD
Kokoboi Right!!
The way things lined up it seemed like Pink Pearl wasn't even made yet and that Pearl was there as a guide. How can I explain it....think about it like this after a Diamond successfully conquered a new world she would get her custom made Pearl but until that first conquest was done they were given our Pearl. You know how like Pearl makes Holo-Pearl as a training dummy?
I still strongly believe Pearl was originally made for White/served White, but was given to Pink later on. White is at the top of the chain, she can get any amount of Pearls she likes so it's probably not hard for her to give one away. Maybe she even has a harem of them, who knows? It's like marrying a harem girl to a prince/political figure in the court, as sultans with harems did from time to time.
I also LOVE the idea of White actually being colorful and prism-like, as in mostly white but with dashes of blue, yellow, pink, and maybe some other colors. Like Pearl herself. Peacock Mom, I NEED
Selin Naz Sur I really don't think she served White. People really need to take that theory to rest. Maybe atleast White made her as a gift for Pink. As Yellow Diamond and Blue Diamond gave her a colony (The Earth) then White gave her a special multi-functional Pearl.
Selin Naz Sur Peacock Mom XDDD that killed me XD
Your comment reminds of the big Boss from Kill La Kill.
Selin Naz Sur hmm..
If pearl served white diamond at first and she IS super colorful... that would explain rainbow quartz.
But female peacocks (aka peahens) are brown
... There is still something that bothers me why didn’t Jasper recognize pearl
Alex M Wells maybe they never met. The real question would be why nobody 'during the war' recognized Pearl. Even if they were the lowest tier gems one would recognize her overall design and gem placement, unless we're playing the Clark Kent/Superman game with her outfit change.
Well. There where at least 800+ pearls in total from what Peridot said. More than a few of those are bound to have it on their head. And they had all changed their look since the war.
@
Kouya Williams
Not maybe, Jasper didn't hide that she never meet Pink. Furthermore people commonly forget that Pearl join CG after assassination and get huge infamy despite that. I think soldiers on battlefront did know that Pear is a high profile traitor, but because most of them died information why didn't reach the top. When data for trial was collected Pear wasn't yet member of CG, so no one connect that fact.
Alex M Wells jasper never met pink diamond. At least there's no evidence she did.
+redholm-Yeah, it is likely that even the Crystal Gems assumed that Pink Diamond had a whole "harem" of Pearls at her disposal. It could even be that Rose made up a false origin story for even Pearl where Rose claimed that she liberated Pearl from a Diamond and everyone would be so impressed that a Rose Quartz freed a Pearl underneath the Diamond's noses, no one would ever really ask anymore questions about it. It's hard to say though since in The Answer, Garnet (and Ruby and Sapphire) originally referred to Pearl as a renegade, a "Pearl that belonged to no one." That seemed to be pretty common knowledge too, at least among Blue Diamond's court, that Rose's Crystal Gems contained a "renegade" Pearl that belonged to no one. Since Pearls are easily disposable and are among many and since no one claimed this Pearl for their own, it's likely that no one was able to recognize her. She certainly did shapeshift her clothing all the time to where she clearly didn't wear the same "royal attire" that she did when she served under Pink Diamond. Pearl could've even made her own origin story over how she came to meet Rose in the first place.
As for if Jasper ever knew Pink Diamond personally before Pink "died"/became Rose Quartz, it's hard to say. The only information she did give up was that she was fighting ever since she was created, because of what Rose did to her colony, because of what Rose did to her Diamond. And that could very well mean about anything at this point. Some people do believe that Jasper's crying is audible in A Pale Single Rose where Steven sees the flashback of Pearl/Rose "killing" Pink Diamond, but. . .that still wouldn't pinpoint exactly when Jasper was created or what relationship she did have with Pink. All that's established so far is that she is still clearly fond and loyal to the Diamond she was originally created for, she didn't ever have any idea Rose and Pink were one and the same and that revelation likely would've destroyed her, and her whole reason for coming to Earth was to take revenge against Rose Quartz for killing Pink Diamond.
I fully agree with this theory, and I believe Pearl was made specifically for Pink by White, Yellow and Blue. All three other Diamonds had a hand in making sure this new Pearl would be sensible, intelligent, etc. to actually be helpful to Pink. That's why she had all four colors in her palette. An even crazier idea (but possibly canon now) is that White Diamond HANDMADE Pearl. The Diamonds didn't incubate Pearl and let her sit for a while, White made her on the spot just like Pink created those gemshards. At this point we don't know if the other Diamonds can do that, especially since Pink has 'life' powers (creating gemstones, resurrection, healing, plants, etc etc). But White is without a doubt the most powerful Diamond, so who knows.
Sensible and intelligent. Hmmmm
I think the Diamonds were the founders and creators of Home World, as well as all of the other gems.
That would make some sense if you consider real-life gem lore. Pearl's gemstone is misshapen compared to the other Pearl's we've seen. She could be a Freshwater Pearl which is typically heavily manipulated and only 10% of the untreated ones are not warped. Although, Freshwater Pearl make up most of the market, which I imagine isn't true on home-world if you comparing the process to a handmade gift. Who knows how much of this they incorporate into the show, anyways?
I knew I wasn’t the only person who noticed the colors
Rens I love your theory
Diamonds: give her a new pearl
Pearl: helped her to destroy the diamonds
Diamonds: you weren't supposed to do that
I speculated this as well. She is probably a gift from White Diamond.
Cute Gal4321 agreed. I thaught the same as well
RIGHT
I think so too
Not a dificult theory to come up with tbh
That's what i'm thinking
Her outfit tells you. She belonged to every diamond and was handed off when their diamonds tired of her. Look at how she freaked out going “oh I need to be replaced!” That trauma still haunts her it seems. Each diamond handed her off to the next. Going “oh god she’s defective! She has thoughts!” Lol so yeah white was like “ew no. Here yellow. Have my pearl as a gift!”
Yellow: “oh such an honor!”
*sees defective imaginative pearl questioning everything.*
Yellow: “here blue! Have my pearl! She’s uhhh...great?”
Blue: “oh thank you!-oh no fuck that. Here pink!!! A gift from me to you! Have this pearl! She’s more...ehh..like you.”
Pink: “yippee!!! I have a pearl! Thanks for the gift!” *creates rebellion thanks to imaginative defective pearl*
Lmao pretty sure that’s how it actually went.
LivingDeadGurlXXX i just found the bext Einstein
Wow! Such a great theory! I'd never thought it in these terms!
What blue said made me laughing so much😂🤣
Same
I wish it was like that
Pearl is extremely focused, determined, and smart. Peridot is a bit silly but she is smart enough to build a giant robot with foreign technology on her own. And White Diamond is head of Homeworld (pun intended)
Also, a diamond's pearl is very respected as we see them taking roles as bailiffs and courtroom recorders and other gems standing down to them such as Peridot in "It could've been great"
What if Yellow, Blue and White gave Pink a pearl who was smarter and could keep her on task. What if our Pearl was a gift from White who doesn't trust her goofy granddaughter to make her own decisions?
MissConstruct haha i love how you slyly promote that family structure of granma WD, parents YBD and their grand/child PD 😄 i adore that idea so much, especially since old peeps are more prone to stick to conservative ways (the way it has always been) and are less likely to embrace change in the running system whereas the younger, less experienced ones, are generally more open minded to change since they themselves just begun taking baby steps in actively shaping their identities, more likely to act rash but brave and progressive (or at least against whatever doesnt seem right from their sometimes more naive/emotionally influenced perspective). Its wonderfully symbolic of inter-generational challenges ✨
>:P
Personally the idea of YD and BD being 'parents' or like a 'couple' really disturbs me since I pretty much see Gems of the same kind as sisters after the episode where Amethyst met a bunch of other Amethysts at the zoo.
SapphireShield i dont know about others but for me these terms we use to describe generstional family structures have more of a figurative (?) meaning? You know, you can have a really good friend of the same or a similar age and still you can have somewhat of a "mother-child" relationship. One where A gives advice, cares a lot and is protective and B is in need of that - just as an example. What we call and understand to be e.g. a "typical grandma" is actually more of a role in society, among a group of people.. It's an understanding we share what a person is snd behaves like in relationship to others. It's a bit hard to put into a short explanation but what i personally meant was this, rather than any shipping fantasy or whatever you can find disturbing about that thought 🐣 which also doesnt have to be since gems have been shown not to always have the same kind of intimate but only friendshippy "sister" relationship. Or, well, depending on how you understand a "sister".
An easier parallel the diamonds share with that family structure thought: WD seems to be the oldest in line, the wisest, the most experirnced. BD and YD seem to have this "sistery" feeling of being the same "peer"/generation but also were shown to have a lot of parental traits in theit character dynamics with pink. Also the apparent absence of WD in PDs active upbringing (as far as not indicated otherwise by the show) can be similar to a grandparent being part of the family but not necessarily the one a child has the most contact with (ofc a lot of family structures are lived differently. "Family" doesnt mean nor is executed the same around the globe). In the end, it's just a bunch of thoughts :)
SapphireShield but interesting thought nonetheless, i never thought about the meaning of being of the same gem kind 👵 the show didnt give too many clues on how to understand those. It depends on what real life parallels you draw i guess. If you see parallels to it being sth like incest, i understand the worry. But seeing as rather the fusion of different kind of gems is seen as scandalous by homeworld instead of fusion of the same kind of gem (e.g. a bunch of rubies).. I think it's not to be understood incestuous. I guess homeworld has a problem with inefficient, impractical relationships driven by "nonsensical emotions" anyway 😆
My theory is, is that our Pearl wasn't properly assigned to anyone, or any Dimond for that matter. I believe her purpose was to take place of a Pearl that was poofed or shattered, until they could get a new Pearl for the Dimond, or until the old Pearl came back if she was poofed. And that's why she has all the Diamonds' colors. That's my theory though
Kitty_Kat108 XP that is a very good theory 👏👏👏👏👏👌👍
Dancing Unicorn we still don’t know if our pearl was originally whites, though. all we know is that pink diamond had an original pink pearl, but something happened and she was replaced with our pearl and white took control of pink pearl. whether or not our pearl previously belonged to someone else is still up in the air
Hmm
If this is true, then the reason why the gem is where whites is, is because white is the top diamond, so she would choose where the gem would be.
Last time I was this early, Rose Quartz being Pink Diamond was just a theory
More, it was theory questioned for bullshit reasons..
Honestly I think that the only Perfect diamond is White, since, Pink was selfish, Blue cant control her sadness, and Yellow has anger management problems. In real life, white diamons are classified as the most pure and valuable diamonds, so, I think that in the show, White might be the Perfect Diamond, and the other diamond just make the other gems think that they are perfect too
@@sherrylifevlogs9849 she left spinel in the garden for a long time and forgot about her and even make the diamond worries about her But she didn't care about them. (the person that she left )
Her flaw was her trying to be perfect
@@xdhaunteranimation5414 no pink yellow and blue were part of white because white separated those emotions that created the diomands
White perfection in a gem
Yellow physical body and spirit to fight
Blue is the emotions of a gem every emotions but not happiness
Pink happiness, selfishness, fun,
Imperfection and beautify of a gem
All these are persent in every gem
Pink isn't selfish pink among all the diamonds is the only one who knows what right and wrong is white kept telling herself that she is flawless yet she doesn't know what's right and wrong all she cares is to build their perfect empire only pink brought back their senses to what's right and wrong so white can't be considered flawless
I'm pretty sure our Pearl was originally part of White's court. Telling gem placement and character design choices aside, the way Yellow and Blue Pearl acted at the question of "and where was her pearl?" in the trial was shock. They both clearly knew Pink Pearl and had some sort of relationship with her, similar to how they interact with each other. In Message Received, our Pearl shows zero signs that she has any past history with Yellow Pearl when Steven asks her "Who is that?" and she replies "Not all pearls know each other, Steven." We would have gotten some sort of tell if our Pearl had any connection to Yellow Pearl in that moment.
For a few days now I have thought about this topic and that's what I've come up with:
1) Pearl is a white pearl (not *the* white pearl, just a pearl made for White's gems) Scince Pink Diamond didn't have gems before she started the colony, there were no pink gems on homeworld (unless you count Rubies but they're more red than pink), so the Diamonds just gave her a Pearl, planning to replace her with a proper one when the colony is completed.
2) Pearl acts different from Pink because the Diamonds expected (or hoped) that Pink would mature and act like a Diamond, so they gave her a Pearl the is more responsible.
She might also not act like Pink because, as I mentioned before, Pearl was temporary, so not much thought was put into it as long as there was one to assist the starting colony.
3) Pearl questioned Pink's decisions because:
A) She knew Pink wouldn't mind
B) Pink was inexperienced (pearl might also have been like a mentor to her, to teach her how to lead)
C) faking a shattering is a horrible thing to do, even by homeworld standards
D) They *were* fighting for freedom after all, so Pearl had the right to say her opinion to Pink Diamond.
E) Pearl could've been rusty, scince the Diamonds didn't have time to check a temporary Pearl's loyalties and behaviour.
4) Pearl wore clothes with different colours because Pink wasn't as strict as the other Diamonds. We can see the the other Pearl's look very similar, so there might be some sort of dress code for them (just like all other gems except Diamonds) that Pink didn't follow.
5) As for the moon base, it's white and not pink because again, it was Pink's first colony, so there wasn't any Pink materials around. The other Diamonds probably has thousands of years to experiment with different materials and see which were best, but Pink didn't, so her first moon base was from White Diamond's materials.
(Probably White's because she is *the* Diamond and has the best materials.)
Well, I think it would be a fantastic way to establish White’s character if there was a true pearl origin story. To introduce Pink in the face of White giving her such a grand gift would open a lot of opportunity for her character. Perhaps Yellow and Blue didn’t know how to reason with her, therefore they asked White to give her guidance in the form of a pearl. To see Pink’s emotions whirling in the face of White Diamond...who could be a tyrant, would be fascinating. I’d really like to see White introduced to Pink in a flashback of sorts.
Also, maybe White hasn’t been seen because she’s grieving over Pink’s “death” in solitude? Maybe she detached herself from reality and just shut everyone out. Blue copes by reminiscing, Yellow copes by being angry, maybe White copes by shutting things out???
Miss Fedora Makes me wonder why she is rarely mentioned.
Miss Fedora That last part makes sense. The five stages of grief are experienced differently by everyone. Blue is depression, Yellow is Anger, White could represent denial by secluding herself or Bargaining by shutting away others and feeling it could give her some closure for Pink.
And Greg seems to be in acceptance.
Let’s just say white diamond is else and blue is anna
Love your thinking, I was some what thinking the same
Now have the newest episodes of Steven universe, I agree a lot more
If this is true, then this would bring the Black Pearl theory/comic come back to life again.
Nowon & DPool Productions you mean that really weird and dark fan comic..?
TheMasonGamer And ParkerPro yes. Personally, it’s one of my favorite fan comics of SU. Though, it’s only my opinion of course.
Nowon & DPool Productions I love that one.....
Angello! R. I don’t know if were talking about the same comic. It was... disturbing to say the least. Either that or you guys have some messed up taste in entertainment
NOBODY REPLY TO THAT!! IT WILL START A FLAME WAR THAT WILL JUST WASTE TIME IN YOUR YOUR LIFE YOU'LL NEVER GET BACK!!
"Where is pink diamond's attendants, her sapphires and *where was her pearl* ?"
Pink diamond ate bits of gems and Steven loves the fry bits, Coincidence I think not.
That's slightly creepy...
Prodigy Rookie gems are sadists confirmed!!!1!1
BRILLIANT!!
You could say that Steven is a... "Small fry".
Mind fuckn blown.
MY THEORY: Our Pearl was White Diamond’s pearl, but unfortunately was off-colored. She was going to be shattered. But Pink begged to keep her alive, make Pearl hers. Maybe that’s why Pearl was questioning Pink, having her own opinions and such because she’s off-colored!
Raisin I don’t think that’s it , just cause they had the same placement doesn’t mean that’s her original owner , if she did thought she was defective she would’ve just whitewashed her , heck even if pink did beg white, she wouldn’t have listened , she would’ve just straight up have whitewashed her , I mean when yellow and blue begged white to change , white also just white washed her so it’s not that far fetched.
@@NaiefThegoony You have a good point there!
I think the most interesting theory is that Pink Pearl hadn't been made right away, and Pink Diamond needed a pearl to help her mature. So White Diamond, agreeing to let Pink Diamond have a colony, did so on a condittion that there was a gem there to supervise and help Pink keep colonizing. That gem was White Peral, as in OUR Pearl.
This, in terms of character, actually keeps most of the important things about Pearl intact. Such as that she was a pearl that didnt belong to anyone, a renegade who rebelled. She was sent by White to supervise Pink, keep her on tract, but she fell in love with Pink, and helped her stop the colonization against White's orders. And the falling for Pink/Rose thing is less of a servant falling for their master, and more of a sort of inspector falling for the one they're meant to be observing.
As for Pink Pearl, she was probably being made as the rebellian was happening, to be presented to Pink after she had settled the rebellian as a sign the other diamonds thought that she was mature enough to run a colony on her own.
Idk, it made sense in my head, and seems more appealing
So there are smart people here? Thanks.
Watched the new episode, your theory makes sense
Oooh I like this!
Some think Rhodonite is composed of a random Ruby and the original Pink Pearl and that our Pearl was a gift to Pink Diamond from all the others.
Abby Robins but Rhodonite’s component gems were Hessonite’s.
I just remembered.
*THERE ARE TYPES OF SALTS THAT ARE PINK*
Pothole Gaming TV Wasn't there a lake that has so much salt that it's almost uninhabitable
Himalayan salt
I disagree with this theory on two accounts. The first being that Pearl was referred to as defective by both Jasper and Garnet, and can be further supported by the oval shaped pearl vs the round pearl the other diamond pearls have. Another way she could be defective is the multiple color scheme. Along with these, maybe her gem placement was supposed to be on her naval, like pink, and instead it appeared on her head. My second reason for disagreeing is in response to one of your facts to support this theory. The fact that pearl questioned Pink Diamond's plan while other pearls never question their owners. This could easily be that the relationship between Pearl and Pink Diamond is much less formal then the relationship between the other Diamonds and their pearls (diamonds specifically cause we haven't seen any other pearls). Pearl felt close enough to be able to question her diamond's authority.
Jasper thinks any gem that defected from the Diamond authority defective and/or flawed though. As for Garnet considering the events of late she could've been lied to about the whole Pearl is defective because she joined Rose in a rebellion against Home-world.
Meep Meeps Don't forget, in that that scene, only Pearl was called defective, and as for garnet, it is true that it is possible she was lied too, but it's equally as possible that garnet wasn't lied to and that it's the truth. We've got proof stating otherwise
Meep Meeps but I see your argument. None of will know until the show actually shows us
Yeah the fun of making theories. ^^ What I do hope is true about this one theory that's been going around and even I commented on a few vids is that Pearl was like a training Pearl for the Diamonds from White. Whereas Pink Pearl had never been made as this was like a trial run for Pink.
My thoughts exactly. I'm so tired of pearl is white diamond theories. Like why would white diamond shape-shifts herself into a defective Pearl? Also why would the diamonds want to give a defective Pearl if defective gems don't fit within the mold of gem Society
We still have yet to see *_her first original form_* that was briefly shown as a silhouette in "Steven the Sword Fighter" right before she regenerated back to her form we have to this day.
PEARL : SO SMART LİKE WHİTE DİAMOND , STONGER LİKE YELLOW DİAMOND , EMOTIONAL LİKE BLUE DİAMOND AND SHE İS İN LOVE LİKE PİNK DİAMOND
I think that Pearl(our pearl) was a gift from all of the other diamonds to Pink. I don’t think that Pearl was the original Pearl. Since pearls reflect their diamond, yellow, blue or white or even all of them got rid of Pinks original pearl because they wanted Pink to become like them. Pearl doesn’t exactly have the same traits as the diamonds but it kinda makes sense. Pink may have convinced Pearl that what she was doing was right, but since she was made and gifted by the other diamonds, she was hesitant to follow Pinks demands. That kinda what I think.
I think so too, look at Pearl's clothes, blue sleeves, yellow stripe, pink veil tutu, white skin, and white diamond's gem placement
Meagan Lane Pearl might also be so smart because her gem is on her forehead. Maybe White Diamond relates to wisdom too?
Cookie Time She has the saltiness from Yellow, sobby persona from Blue and maybe smart like White?
That's just my opinion
I think Pearl was originally made for white. Since in real life it takes so long to make a pearl, it made be that way in the show. This means when Yellow, then Blue came along they would need a pearl until their's were made. White figured our Pearl would be fine doing so, making her change her color palette to match. From there Pearl could have train the other two pearls in their duties before going back to White. Then Pink came along, so did an incompetent pink pearl (or she didn't have one yet, those where just ideas being passed around). White had our Pearl fill in til a new Pink Pearl was made. The rest was history.
I still think it’s a possibility that pearl was a gift from white diamond
Agreed, the fact that pearl is white and that her pearl is placed where white diamond’s diamond is placed. It just makes sense
Meme Lord my thoughts exactly
Well remember when Pearl tried to fuse with Rose”Pink Diamond”she did say that she *needs to be replaced*
Man. SU has more layers now than Shrek’s onions. I miss the old days of SU: simple, goofy and fun. Now it’s seen as a detective movie with hidden clues
xbreadboi is right season 1 was simpler
As true as it is, I prefer the new seasons.
jermiah anderson
Or was it?
Ok only joking guys
xBreadBoi _ I Love Yoo had more layers
If gem placements have meanings (Pearl = wisdom, Garney = strength) why is Amethyst's on her chest?
Hikari Takamatsu chest = heart? But compared to the other gems with chest placements in doesn't make sense? Very interesting. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Hikari Takamatsu possibly heart due to the fact that she does what she wants and mostly doesn’t think about what she does.
Omg gems are not made to love the diamonds
Peridot was admired yellow because she knew nothing about her and when she disappointed peridot by being impulsive and selfish peridot called her a clod to her face
maybe part of the reason the crystal gem fromed
These are no contradicting observations you know. I think they are truly made to love/admire the diamonds in a naive way similar to a child adoring its mother/parents. That doesnt make the parents perfect and a child might grow up to question the former almighty righteousness of their parents 👶 gems might function similar. In a conformative system where you are asked to behave the way its expacted of you and not allowed to question the status quo - chances are just slimmer for individuals to protest or think "out of the box"/their bubble
Arjoona Along your line of thought, I tend to view Homeworld culture almost deifying the Diamonds. Since no contrary opinions or evidence last long enough to spread to the masses, they lack the healthy discourse needed to create free thought. Peridot, to her credit, starts critically thinking about her mission incredibly quickly after meeting Steven. So, the gems are “made” to love their diamonds by the closely controlled culture, but probably aren’t literally made to do so while incubating in the kindergartens.
The gems simply view the diamonds as gods in my opinion. Just hope Kratos doesn't learn about them
Dredd the diamonds are god empresses to them
I can really get this especially because of one of the newer episodes where she said she was assigned to pink after she got her colony so pink either didn’t have a pearl before a colony or she got a new one
Just a tad extra salt this episode.
Sir Embrum49 The Great Moth that and vox. It’s a gag I bring up each video.
Glad to hear it's a gag, that you're just joking. Because I'm so tired of people complaining about everything these guys do.
Probably cause it's about our salty Pearl. 😆
Salty?
*WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?*
Nowon & DPool Productions *sprinkle sprinkle*
Thanks THE ROUNDTABLE for posting the video after my graduation day , i can finally watch the video with peace
Just looked at pearls name and my mind removed the L.
Now I see pear.
Pothole Gaming TV
Pink pear
Blue pear
Yellow pear
Damn, you use food colouring? 😂
Pothole Gaming TV Her head IS pear shaped
I mostly theorized Pearl was not originally Pink's because of the design of her outfit. She has a pink illustration resembling a diamond not far from where Pink's diamond actually is. There's also the fact that in that version especially, her appearance has white, pink, blue and yellow.
Thanks for this video. My father broke his rib working and won’t go to a doctor b/c he doesn’t have insurance. I really needed something like this. Thank you, Vox
Thank you. That’s extremely sweet of you.
Ok, I have a theory (I don't normally have my own theory) so what if gems can grow and Blue and Yellow was also not mature once they popped out. White didnt have time to teach them so had her pearl, CG Pearl, to teach Yellow and Blue how to act like diamonds. This explains why her clothes were different colors, to show that she was with all the other dimaonds before she was passed down to Pink.
Could it be possible that pearl is off?
DJ Talks Since Jasper called her "defective" in The Return, It's a possibility
Anormal Stalker defective could have two usage but I get what you mean.
It's been hinted at a few times that she's an off color but never flat out said.
Pink did seem to like off colors.
But there's no saying if that's why she had pearl.
Pearl is very different from other pearls and I don't think that's just because of pink.
I think she's always question things. Always been a little more independent minded than the others. Pink just brought it out in her more.
Peridot said she was a fancy Pearl. Would she have said that if Pearl was defective? If anyone could tell whether or not a gem is defective, it'd be Peridot (since she is pretty knowledgeable about Kindergartens).
@Anormal Stalker
Jasper consider as such every CG, so that is not relevant.
I mean isn’t it JUST CRYSTAL CLEAR NDSJHSJSDJDJ

yellow diamond hasnt been here yet
LOL
Nevermind that homeworld just arrived and they disliked again :/
Ooooh this is definitely working in favor of my "the Pearl from the Off Colors Rhodonite being Pinks original Pearl" & "Crystal Gems Pearl being assigned to Pink by White Diamond" hypotheses from a few months back. I approve!!
I agree her gem placement is a dead giveaway she had to belong to white diamond
Are you going to update this theory with the new episode that came out with white pearl has similarities to Pink. Maybe White took the pearl and changed her for her personality being like the imperfect Diamond. And to help Pink grow, she intrusted her slowly becoming flawed Pearl to Pink. She would be getting a win win. Getting ride of a pearl she no longer wanted to a diamond that needed to grow and to not get involved to make her a better leader.
I'm still going out on a limb here and saying Pink Diamond's original Pink Pearl is locked away in the chest. Or maybe a corruption cure theory, or letters to Steven about her being a diamond and then a quarts. That chest has to have something in it that will be a gasping moment when revealed, or someone, I mean Pink Diamond's shards can't be in the chest anymore since Rose Is Pink Diamond! Also if Pearl did belong to White, would that mean White Diamond has a new White Pearl?
Also what does a gem have to do to get a pearl? Could any gem that does something good get a pearl? Would Emerald have a Pearl then? Lars has a Pearl! *points to the Rhodonite* and a Ruby and Sapphire! Boom! Lars might have a better ship crew than Emerald!
Tage Robin considering Eyeball said if she took down Rose she would get her own personal pearl, I bet only elite gems get pearls normally because they are high ranking and can afford "luxury" in the form of personal pearl servants. Peridot said Pearl looked fancy, so I'm guessing better made pearls also go to higher ranking gems. For lower ranking or mid tier gems, they likely have to show an extreme amount of usefulness. Example: Eyeball is a simple ruby, but if she captured/killed Rose, she would be considered a useful soldier who could be gifted a pearl as a reward for her service to Homeworld.
AxisTrio63 I completely forgot about that episode 😅 feel a little silly now. It does made you think through, how many pearls are made, since Peridot said there were disposable(forgot her actual words to that). Maybe they are as many pearls as there are Rubies, maybe even more so. Makes you wonder how the non owned pearls are and what they do, it'd be kinda sad to know that they just wait in a room or in their gem till someone claims their very own pearl for themselves.
Tage Robin I agree. How sad would it be to be fired as someone's pearl and have to practically wait to be reassigned because you're not allowed to be independent. I'm not sure either about Peridot's comment on pearls being disposable. I'd assume Homeworld has plenty of pearls, but since pearls are made organically in real life, I'm not sure how costly it is to grow/incubate a pearl for Homeworld. It's really sad but pearls are probably seen as a commodity considering Peridot didn't initially see Pearl as a person/gem and considered her a servant/ornament for other gems.
AxisTrio63 I'd wanna take them all away to earth! They really should explore more about the Pearls and the Rubies and the other "disposable" gems. I bet to many watching the show they see pearls and rubies as normal gems, yet homeworld sees them as paws and purses, I mean it would be a little saddening to see how they are treated if the pearls are treated very poorly, but we've only seen Yellow Pearl, Blue Pearl, and Pearl and yet Pearl(also Peridot) mentions(or feels inside) that pearls are just objects. So far I've only seen Yellow and Blue Pearl act more loyal and somewhat happy to be serving their Diamonds(well yes because they are serving THE DIAMONDS). So maybe there should be an episode where pearls owned by other gems are and pearls that aren't owned yet are(along with rubies and other gems low rank like them or corse).
I think that maybe white diamond thought that she didn't need a pearl because she was so perfect, therefore, when she saw how pink diamond acted, she came to the conclusion that her pearl was part of the problem, so her solution was to give pink diamond her unwanted pearl so that she would straighten out. The ORIGINS that was talked about may be referring to how pearl was changed after serving pink diamond in her own court, therefore not only leading her to change her ways, but also causing pink diamond to trust her with her secret that she was not only pink diamond but also Rose Quartz.
Maybe the second pearl of pink diamond has been replaced by pearl and pink pearl is the fusion with Ruby ( rhodonite)
I think that pearl was 100% White Diamonds Pearl. Think about it. The gemstone on the forehead. Smarter than pink and pink pearl. She is younger than the other pearls. Maybe because she was under the control of white. MEANING SHE DOESNT REMEMBER IT.
Well pearl did say my diamond in a single pale Rose and Rose quartz said my Pearl but that's just my opinion notice my theory
Serenity Tolbert Yeah you’re right! When Pink asked pearl if the shards she made looked real pearl said “very much so my diamond”
but Rebecca Sugar herself said that no one says "my pearl". The "my" is something you only say to your superiors (ex. "my Diamond"). So Rose saying "My Pearl" may have a whole other meaning.
And I could be wrong about this next point but I think you would say "my Diamond" to all the diamonds. (Like when Holly Blue Agate called both Blue and Yellow "My Diamonds"). There's no doubt that our Pearl WAS Pink's Pearl; the question is whether or not she was Pink's FIRST/ORIGINAL Pearl. Just a thought
Serenity Tolbert The "my" part has different meanings on language
kiayeoja No saying "my" is indicative of respect and respect alone. Vox even stated so in conjunction with Rebecca. Rose saying "my pearl" likely meant it as "pearl I respect and am grateful for you and your support"
Every gem did say that way to every diamond..
Jasper did mention that Pearl was 'lost' and 'defective' and Holly Blue Agate did say she was of an older more fancier model too, Pearl was probably one of the first to be made and ended up being discarded by White Diamond as defective and just put her away in a room like how the other Rose Quart's were where Blue Diamond was mourning until Pearl was given a purpose of work...
What if pearl was a spear pearl in case one of the other diamond pearls are shattered, until a new pearl is made for the diamond in question. That would be why pearl has colors of all four diamond in her appearance.
@Darkness King “ was a s *SPEAR* pearl “ you mean Spare?
New sugulite design in a hot topic shirt
I bought it
Diamonds: Here pink! We got you a planet to colonize!
Pink D: *starts rebellion against homeworld so she doesn't have to colonize Earth and fakes own shattering to cover her tracks, then taking the form of rose quartz*
Diamonds: Shit.
I think that white diamond gave her pearl to pink diamond to make sure everything goes to plan
What plan?
The truth is that my pearl ran away from me shouting: IM FREE
and I never seen her again sense. T-T
Her diamond is White diamond. Or IS PEARL WHITE DİAMOND
Yeah when i said rose is pink diamond nobody belived either
No, Onion is White Diamond!
I think that there is a chance that pearl could be white diamond in disguise maybe one of white diamond powers is to make her gemstone into any shape she wants
Woah
Boşluk Ta OH NO AHHHHHHHHHHH
Gems arent made with the idea of their gems being placed in a specific place. For instance, Pearl's gem in her forehead. But my question is, are pearls specifically made for diamonds and made in a specific amount? Like Rhodonite (ruby and pearl fusion), who and what was the pearl in rhodonite made for and what was her purpose?
So how does gem and human births work ???...
Lol thought this video was made after "Now We're Only Falling Apart." But it was a month ago! This theory is probably spot on!
Seems legit
What if our Pearl was originally White Diamond's pearl (her skin tone, gem color/placement support this), but she was given to Pink Diamond to guide her as she was a new/younger diamond. What if Pink Diamond never had her own pearl, because of her newness and instead was given our pearl to direct her. This would explain why our Pearl doubts Pink diamond. It is clear the other diamonds do not seem to trust Pink Diamond's capabilities, likely based on her potentially defective size and young mannerisms. It would make sense for the diamonds to give her a guide to help her.
Pink Diamond Pink Pearl fused with Ruby and become Rhodonite, She fled . SO White Diamond gave Pink one of her own pearl
*when the authority went broke so they gatta share a pearl*
Maybe WD gifted pink our pearl, so then she could actually feel like a diamond too.. Just maybe.
there are now theories following the new episodes! they are saying something about how white pearl was actually pink diamonds pearl and it's really interesting. maybe you could use make another theory continuing this on your channel! keep it up by th way! these videos are really appreciated!
i know this is an old theory but there is
more evidence now!
Great video i love your content 👌🏽😄
I feel like pearl was made by all the diamonds to teach (would explain Pearls obsession with teaching Steven all the time about Gem-kind) all their characteristics of each court (I mean look at her clothes, all court colors) so when she was given to PD she was capable of teaching her values of all the diamonds to help her mature without the diamonds having to physically deal with her all the time (I mean oof look at Yellow's attitude on jungle moon), shes practically been the one who has explained pretty much most things we know about gems.
BTW I LUV YOU'RE THEORIES, THEY'RE SO CREATIVE
well this aged well
This makes so much sense! Pearl's personality of "Don't do this, don't do that , you'll get hurt." Like a rational mother makes tons of sense if she was planned to be a smarter pearl to help 'ease' pink into a more responsible mind-set!
Vox is still Salty...
Will he ever be Peppery? lol
Elebrony nope.
Bitch you been on every video stop it he not even paying attention 🤜👑❣️🌹😂
Mrs.pink&vegeta Diamond he doesn't pay attention to anyone😑
Butter Scotch bih plz got a heart from him always stop it😂🤜👑🌹❣️
I think that Diamonds can decide how their Pearl should look like or that they can choose between several Pearls as if their some kind of pet.
That's just how I thought of it.
Pink pearl is in roses chest inside lion!
Shakila Muhammad possibly,but evidence?
People like to put anything in that chest XD We need to fill it with something now that Pink Diamond is no longer in it :P
possible
I think Pearl's line foreshadows something too. "Your status, *my purpose* none of it will matter..." She wouldn't say something like that prior to Pink faking her shattering if her 'purpose' is just to follow orders; If that was the case that purpose would still be fulfilled considering she'll still be following her around, but that isn't the case. It implies that her purpose is something more, something that has to do with Pink as an authority figure. I do agree that it could possibly be that Pearl's purpose is to help Pink mature and become a better leader. Our pearl could have been her advisor, mentor and babysitter all in one. Not just some Pearl to follow blindly.
Or a small theory of mine is that Pearl is a gift from White Diamond to Pink, and that she was Pink’s first Pearl. Something else I’d like to say is that the other Pearls’ pearls are a perfect circle while our Pearl’s pearl is an oval.
“A lost, defective Pearl?!”- Jasper
I agree that our pearl was made for pink diamond so far. I also can't shake what peridot said "maybe they'll give me my own pearl!"
I think pink pearl is the off color fusion pearl+ruby
That moment when you vote on the poll and you notice the percentage changed *All of the power is in my hands*
Oh pearl definitely belonged to white! I've thought that for a looong time, and this video basically just manifested everything I was thinking about into a video
It is important to note that in The Answer, the first time pearl is seen she is almost completely white colored with no extra colors added in. I think it might be possible for gems to change the color palette of their physical forms due to it just being made up of light. This could explain why the Diamonds' pearls look so monochrome, and why pearl wasn't always multicolored.
Well I'm late like always😂
I litterly cant be early even I have notifications bell on😭🤦♂️I'm soooo maddddddddd
And I cant waitttt for the new episode😭 I'm not patient
Pink pearl was pink diamond’s original pearl, but was controlled by white diamond and switched with white pearl (our pearl)
Correct I'm from future
In Steven universe future, we meat pink diamond’s other pearl, which yeah, gives a hint that pearl was originally white diamond’s pearl
Exactly, mystery solved
First to like my own comment
The Roundtable I have 4 Theorys:
1: what happens if Steven universe own gem turns up instead of down like it always is? Will he become a true diamond.
2: Is Rose really Dead? I think shes still alive.
3: do all the diamonds have more then one ships what happens with white,blue,yellow and pink ships Attached to one big ship? can they Destroy planets.
4: What's lions true backstory? What if lion as a secret.
I'm still holding out that Pearl was meant for the Diamond Authority fusion. Her palate is a mix of all 4 colors, her mentioning abandoning their purpose in SPR. I think PD tried to prove she was worthy with her 1st colony after complete rejection by WD for being off color, misshapen, and emotional...even worse than BD. The Diamond Authority symbol shows all parts perfectly the same, so I don't think WDs obsession with perfection is going to plan. We see in Steven that emotions arent bad as they are tied to his powers. I could go on...
Pearl thinks with her brain, Amethyst, her heart. Garnet, she's on hands. Steven, thinNKS WITH HIS TUM
This is one of the few theories I fully believe in. Other than what you just mentioned, our Pearl is a very mind-oriented gem. Even from the start, mental ability was her "thing," just like Yellow Pearl is very curt and precise, and Blue is more artistic and emotional.
This plus the mostly-accepted theory about White Diamond having mind powers (as her aspect of the corruption attack) points heavily to Pearl being originally White Diamond's pearl.
Also note in the episode when pearl reforms, we see a form that looks very much different than any outfit we have seen
I think pink made her gems to only love her, and not love the other diamond's the way they love her. I say this because Jasper, who was made by pink, adresses yellow and 'Yellow Diamond' since she probably doesnt respect yellow the way she loved pink.
I do love the idea that our Pearl was a gift from all the Diamonds to Pink, that's why she had all the colors. Pearl was made by White Diamond and the colors on her outfit resemble the care from Blue and Yellow.
I think that Pearl was meant to serve White Diamond but was considered off colour because of her gem being a bit more oval than other Pearls'. So, when Yellow and Blue found out about Pink's Pearl not being sensible (as AwestruckVox said), she was passed on to Pink Diamond as a replacement.
The instant I saw a single pale rose, that was my only though
"Why is pearl not pink?"
And then later, I saw an amazingly decent theory!
Rhodonite might actually be a ruby and PINK'S pearl!
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised
It'd make a lot of sense....
BUT
it actually wouldn't
because if the pattern of the pearls having the same gem placement as their diamond is true then it isn't possible
The pearl on Rhodonite is on her chest, while pink pearl would have it on her stomach
However, since ruby's gem is on the stomach, perhaps the gem was pushed into a more convenient place?
However, It's highly unlikely...
Here's something to wrap your head around. When a gem reforms, the last thing they remember is what happened right before they poofed. Like when Peridot reformed small and she continued what she was saying before she got poofed. "I'm the only one who knows about... ...about the cluster..!"
Now look at what happened when Bismoth reformed, she was a bit scared and got into a fighting stance before realizing where she was. So what exactly *did* Rose/Pink do?
Pearl does say my diamond when pink shows her the fake shards she says convincing pearl responds “Very much so MY DIAMOND”.
its actually kind of obvious since the pink pearl has her pearl on the stomach and steven / pink diamond has her diamond on the stomach too.
AND, rose's pearl had her pearl on her forehead and white diamond had her diamond on her forehead too!!
I think our pearl was created with the reason of trying to help pink diamond to be perfect like the rest of the diamonds are. She questions her diamond to possibly introduce her to the opinions and strategies that the rest of the diamonds would have to take care of their colonies so that she does not make any nonsense.
