Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
SpoilerIt is a distinct red/orange. See example in the link, I've been there in person, definitely orange hued, less red then say blood.

vermilion is the color of fire. meaning it has color shades that transition between gold, red, orange, and near white, but mostly shifts between red and gold.

I'm surprised some folks didn't mention...

Easy for me, I have caught many vermillion snapper fishing in the gulf of mexico. Although, to be honest I had no idea it was a color.

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
SpoilerIt sounds like it ought to be green, probably due to the "vert" in there, but I feel like I vaguely remember it being red.
So I'll go with red

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
Vermillion and chartreuse are each the color most people (including me) think of first when they hear the other's name.
I use braces (also known as "curly brackets") to indicate sarcasm. If there are none present, I probably believe what I am saying; should it turn out to be inaccurate trivia, please tell me rather than trying to play along with an apparent joke I don't know I'm making.

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
I never played on the fat gameboy, but that didn't help me figure out what half of the colors the towns in the egion are named for were. Literally the only reason I could guess cinnabar was some kind of red was because I know what cinnamon is and Blaine's a fire trainer. Cerulean is actually a semi-uncommonly used word, so I knew it was blue. Vermillion City had Lt. Surge, so I think yellow made the most sense to me.
To be honest, the only reason I knew half the towns in Kanto were named for colors at all was the fact that the game kind of drives that home and makes it clear through puns like Pallet(te) town pointing the way. Doesn't mean there's more than two or three towns in there game where I could actually accurately guess the actual color that goes with the word, though.

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
SpoilerThe fact that Vermillion City has the Electric Gym led me to believe it was yellow. But it's actually red. I've known that for quite a while, actually. In fact, my first thought on learning it was "but...electricity is yellow!"elephants are made of carbon

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
SpoilerI've seen enough of these to know it is dark red. However, I feel like the name should be swapped to reffering to green (maybe a very deep green). I feel like the reason I know it as green is due to both "vert" being green in french, and due to veridian/vermillion sounding far too similar, and thus forever messing up my perception of colour

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
I think vermillion is a shade of red. At least, that's what I think it is.

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
Apropos of nothing, I loved reading some of the comments here. It was very fun to see the guesses and honestly informative to read peoples' comments about ability and bias through this medium.
Someone should do a whole thread where people just list random really obscure colours and see if people can guess what they are without Googling them. We had chartreuse and vermillion already, what about:
- Eggplant?
- Wenge?
- Royal Blue? (I anticipate discussion about the type of blue this is)
- Coquelicot?
- Taupe?
- Malachite?
- Primrose? (No, it's not pink)
- Cobalt?
I'm sure there are plenty more, those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head. I would look up more but... that would kind of defeat the purpose of the game.Awesome Simurgh avatar by smutmulch!

Re: What color do you think Vermillion is? no google, from the heart
I first encountered Vermillion back in the mid eighties watch Robotech. Rick Hunter was assigned to Vermillion squadron, which had red trim.
I always wanted vermillion to be blue.
I always love the line in Diamonds are Forever in the crematorium when the 'usher' says please wait by the "restful chartreuse curtains."Last edited by Lord Torath; 2021-06-05 at 10:24 AM.
