Happy New Year everybody! I was going to post this yesterday since I wanted a post on both New Year's Eve & Day, but didn't have it ready in time. So, it's a day late. After all, I'm trying to break my habit of procrastination.

In Spirin, Sawk & Throw can be found with different belt colors. This indicates their rank in Judo & Karate (Shotokan). For a Throw a higher belt color shows how much strength & experiance they have. Ingame it's purely aesthetic & to add a bit of depth to the Pokémon. For a Sawk it not only shows their skill, but ingame it's both aesthetic & gradually raises 3 of their base stats. Resulting in them being doubled by the time their a Red belt.
