:::::::::The article currently states that the purple form is a variant, as in not something that can apply to other Kecleon. | |||
:::::::::We DO KNOW that ANY KECLEON in the world can become purple because that is CANON. It is an ASSUMPTION that a purple Kecleon is not normal. It is far from an assumption that any Kecleon can be purple because this is explicitly stated in canon. | |||
:::::::::Here, how about ''this'' for a compromise? | |||
:::::::::"Kecleon is a bipedal, reptilian Pokémon that is usually green, though it can change its color at will. On either sides of its head are yellow frills, which are connected by lines to its yellow lips and rings around its eyes. There are small ridges on its shoulders and a red zigzag stripe around its midsection. The hands and feet have three short digits each, and it has yellow soles. It also has a long skinny tail that is usually curled tightly in a spiral. | |||
:::::::::Kecleon is able to change the colors of its body at will, and is known for frequently using this ability to camouflage or to show emotion, though it can change color for any reason. A purplish variant has been seen in [[EP205|the anime]] and the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]; whether this is an example of changing its color or simply a different kind of Kecleon is unknown. The only thing a Kecleon is known to be unable to change is the color of the red stripe on its stomach; because of this, it is not entirely invisible, but it is sufficiently close that it can still sneak up on prey and ensnare it with its long pink tongue. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests}}." | |||
:::::::::Spiky-eared Pichu is a variant because Pichu do not naturally possess the power to make one of their ears spiky. Purple Kecleon is by NO means a variant because ALL Kecleon possess that power. The above compromise is the only thing I can think of that will make both of us happy, though I see no reason why you're being so stubbornly adamant about the fact that it's a variant. It's not.
