I can PROBABLY suggest this since iris isn't out yet. So.

For those of you who haven't seen yet, since it's very new info, these are the fails Iris throws:

Iris is really pretty and I love it, except it has two fails that don't match its color scheme: Pink and Tyrian. Since Iris is a desaturated green, brown, and purple eye color I don't really understand this choice, especially since Maroon has Pink and Tyrian too in the same order. If this is a wiki mistake and not actually its choice of fails then forgive me, I have clowned. Update: Yes, these are the true fails. But Pink and Tyrian's colors really don't make sense for this eye type when other green/brown/soft colors are right there.

Anyway, I colorpicked Iris, every single eye type that Iris fails to, and then the additions of Olive and Hazel. I picked those two eyes as one replacement of a common color and one replacement of a special oasis color in more matching hues? IDK. As shown, the greens all match excellently. Blue matches decently well, as when the purple and green blend into eachother on the lineless there's a soft blueish in-between, so it's nice for some variety. However, Pink and Tyrian visibly don't match the color cloud at all, to the point where I'm not sure they're intended as fails.

Next, I laid out the gradient of Iris's colors with all of its fails compared on top of it (open in a new tab for clarity):
iris_colorchart.png
Olive and Hazel are written in red as they're not its actual fails, and instead colors I added to compare as better fail choices. I also numbered the colors in red to show which comparison is which. While all the colors even including Blue blend into each other nicely, these two seem to stick out when actually lined up next to Iris- ESPECIALLY pink, that definitely shouldn't be there at all:

It doesn't make sense that these colors are chosen to add variety to its fails. When most other eye colors with this low level of saturation (e.g. Sage, Starshine, Sunburst, Jade, even Draconid) and a minimal gradient are made, the fails stick to a small or minimal color palette that matches the eye as well as possible. With Pink and Tyrian, Iris breaks this format- and it doesn't seem like it was done to draw people more to Iris, since Pink is definitely one of the least popular fails ingame? Almost everyone who dislikes the eye color Dawn says that it's because of the fail colors it throws, so these two fails being selected for Iris seems like a bad choice DFSHJDSFHJFDSHJFDS. The people who are going to breed Iris (me :P) are drawn to it because of the colors it already has, and probably already like soft greens and browns. Anyway, yeah, hope that that makes sense.

TL;DR, replace Pink and Tyrian with Olive and Hazel respectively. Or optionally, here are other fails that also match its color palette well, but I didn't mockup just to save time:
-Starshine (!!!)
-Sunburst
-Brown
-Paradise (!!!)
-Lavender (probably not due to oasis contact limitations :c)
-Sage

And that's all. Yeah, that's just some thoughts. Thank you for reading.

Edit: Please explain why if you don't support ^^



This suggestion has 194 supports and 4 NO supports.

Support. I dont see why pink out of all the many, many colors for eyes was chosen as a fail.

The shade of purple used in Iris has like, no relation to Tyrian or Pink whatsoever. Tyrian and Pink are warm-toned colors, and Iris is a cool-toned purple.

Supported. Lavender would be a perfect fail if this game for some reason didn't despise purple eye colors so much (despite them not being weird to have at all anymore lol)

Just confirming it is not a mistake in the Wiki, I tested the eye colour passes and fails myself and the information on the Eyes page is fully accurate regarding Iris's colours.

I honestly support this? I just hate pink eyes with a passion so I normally avoid any eye with that type of fail. A little disappointing that iris passes pink

I think Tyrian is fine, but the pink is absurd. Love the color mockups and the notes on them!

Don't think Starshine should ever be a fail color, but otherwise definite support. I don't see the pink at all

^ Well, Celestite, Dawn, Maroon, Bismuth, Draconid, and Mosaic fail to other breed-only colors, so it wouldn't be an issue if it was. But I can definitely understand- I'm all for keeping breed only eye types more exclusive ^^

hard agree. why pink and Tyrian, of all colors?? I don’t mean to be rude to whoever chose them as fails, but there are literally so many better (and more fitting) fails. I just don’t see how Tyrian or Pink relates to Iris at all.

But then, if it's purple then surely it would logically make sense for red and pink to be fails? at least, red and blue make purple, and red and purple make pink?

Maybe I'm just looking at this simply.

^ The eyes are green and purple, the blue comes from mixing those colors but there isn't any red :O

It makes sense for some purples to drop pink, but with the saturation of Tyrian/Pink, the desaturation of this purple, and the clear better choices it just seemed odd to me:

iris on the right, pink on the left ^
