205.213.216.30: /* Active Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] that affects its appearance. When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature, they can choose one of four basic colours for their new Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red. After the Neopet has been created, the user can change the colour of their Neopets using one of several different methods detailed below. The colour of a Neopet is always displayed on that Neopet's [[pet page]].

The term colour is also used in reference to [[Petpets]]; however, the mechanics by which Petpets change colour are quite different from those of Neopets. Since Petpets are [[item]]s, changing the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a completely different item. For example, if a user changes the colour of their [[Babaa]] to [[Blue]], their ''Babaa'' item will become a ''Blue Babaa'' item. In order to change a coloured Petpet back into its original form, users have to change the colour of that Petpet back to the ''natural'' colour of its species. For example, to change the aforementioned ''Blue Babaa'' item back into a ''Babaa'' item, the user would have to change to the colour of the Babaa back to [[White]], which is the natural colour of the Babaa species.

Not all Neopets and Petpets are available in every colour.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified Neopet in the potion's name. They are sold at the [[Neopian Magic Shop]] and can be purchased from other users in their shops, trading post, or auctions. A Transmogrification Potion is a type of morphing potion that morphs the pet it's used on into a [[Mutant]] Neopet. These potions are not sold at the Magic shop but are given out in random events and from a few games. While permanent, the pet's colour and species can be changed at any time using any of the various colour changing methods.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raise or lower the Neopet's stats, change the gender, or change the species and/or colour of the selected pet. The Lab does have limitations: it can't zap Neopets into Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your Neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass by him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's Neopet. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's Neopet and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured Chia. [[Kiko]]s can also be turned [[Chokato]] if they eat the ''Magical Chokato Chia Pop''. Interestingly, while both Kikos and [[JubJub]]s can be zapped into [[Garlic]], this colour does not exist for Chias at all. Also, if you want to make your JubJub or Kiko look like a pumpkin neopet, you would have to paint it with a [[Halloween]] [[Paint Brush]]

===Magical Plushies===
{{Main|Plushies}}
Magical plushies are sold in the [[Plushie Palace]] along with regular plushies. Any Neopet plushie with the word "Magical" in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet that played with it into that named/coloured pet. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple, non-magical plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The Rainbow Fountain was introduced to [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]] in 2001 as a reward for signing up with sponsors. Signing earned you coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/colour your pet could be changed to, and the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. This sponsor program lasted for a month then shut down.

Years later it was brought back on Neopets and this time there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. Changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Naia|Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

As implied by their name, these paint brushes are made for Petpets. Petpets can be painted some colours that are Lab Ray exclusive for Neopets. Some petpet colours, however, are Petpet Laboratory exclusive, and cannot be gained using paint brushes.

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map. These can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. The Petpet Laboratory can change the type, colour, level, or name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be given an award from the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they see it as petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your Neopet, it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped petpet.

===Colour Bottles===
Colour Bottle are items that can be used to change a [[PetPet]]'s Colour at the Colour Change Station exclusively on PetPet park. These items where originally sold at the PetPet Emporium for 500-5000 Park Points and now these items are sold at the [[NC Mall]] for 100-250 NC. There are many of these Colours that you cannot paint a PetPet on [[Neopets]], which are exclusively sold on PetPet Park as well.

205.213.216.254: /* General Overview */

[[Image:Motes.PNG|right|frame|Six examples of motes.]]

A '''Mote''' is a small being of magical energy taking a specific elemental or environmental form. Most motes are fragile Battledome items with low offensive or defensive power.

==General Overview==
Motes are [[item]]s categorized under ''Brightvale Motes''. Motes were originally categorized as [[Magic Item]]s, but this changed on ''(need date)''. Though they are considered items, they are living, a fact all the more true from the [[Book]] '''The Water Mote''', which tells the tale of one such Mote.

As of January 2008, there are the following Motes:

{|
|- valign="top"
|
*Air Mote
*Ash Mote
*Bubble Mote
*Dee Mote
*Dirt Mote
|
*[[Dung]] Mote
*Dust Mote
*Ee Mote
*Electrical Mote
*[[Fire]] Mote
|
*Frost Mote
*Gold Mote
*Hail Mote
*Hair Mote
*Ice Mote
|
*Lava Mote
*Metallic Mote
*Mud Mote
*[[Neopian]] Mote

|
*Ree Mote
*[[Robot]] Mote
*Rock Mote
*Salt Mote
*Smoke Mote
|
*[[Snow]] Mote
*Water Mote
*[[Weewoo]] Mote
*Wood Mote
|}

There is are five motes and 3 Novas that are only featured in the [[Neopets Trading Card Game|TCG]] card sets. The following motes and novas are listed as followed:
{|
|- valign="top"
|
*Ultranova
*Dark Nova
*Nova
*Fog Mote
|
*Air Mote
*Fire Mote
*Water Mote
*Rock Mote
|}

There are 12 motes and 2 nova motes that are found in the [[Neopets: The Darkest Faerie]] video game, these following motes and nova motes are:
{|
|- valign="top"

*Leaf Mote
*Light Mote

*Sun Mote
|
*Fog Mote
*Fire Mote
*Lava Mote
*Rock Mote
*Water Mote
|
*Bubble Mote
*Air Mote
*Supernova Mote
*Nova Mote
|}

There were 5 old mote images on neopets until they were redesigned. The following motes that were changed are:

*Water Mote
*Lava Mote
*Ice Mote
*Bubble Mote

[[Image:Novas.PNG|frame|right|All novas currently in existence.]]

Although called a ''Magic Item'', a '''Nova''' is considered a Mote due to it's ability to hold all elements of magic within it, and not just a single one as regular Motes (a fact established in [[Neopets: The Darkest Faerie]]).

Novas also come in different forms, having a different degree of power in each form. These are...
{|

|
*Nova
*Supernova
*Ultranova
|
*Dark Nova
*[[Grey]] Nova
*[[Christmas]] Nova
|}

All Novas (except ''Grey'' and ''Christmas'', which have shown no magic) can be used to power [[Battledome Equipment]], some of which are credited to be the most amazing in the [[Battledome]]. All Novas (except ''Grey'' and ''Christmas'') have a wand (which produces 1 of the nova), a staff (which produces 2 of the nova) and a rod (except for ''Ultranova'', but has a fake version) (which produces 3 of the nova, plus has attack, defense and multiheal abillity.). And there are seven more kind of novas that serve as minions for Dr. Sloth, which are Mecha Novas, Fire Novas, Pulsar Novas, Dark Nova, Light Nova, Pink Novas, and Attack Novas.

==Trivia==
*As of December 2006, Motes are featured in 115 different items.
*It is said the '''Black Cherry Slushie''' will "...create a taste supernova in your mouth."
*The ''[[Scarab#Battle_Scarabs|Scarabnova]]'' is a Battledome weapon geared against Novas. It may steal a Nova from an opponent, or create a sonic vibration which can cause all of an opponent's Novas to explode.
*The word ''mote'' means a very small particle (such as dust or sand), and may also be used here in reference to [[Wikipedia:Emoticon|emoticons]], a relationship noteworthy due to most Motes having a smile.
*A Mote avatar was released on May 23, 2007.
*The name of the mote '''Ree Mote''' is a play on the word ''remote'', as in a far distance. Likewise, ''Dee Mote'' is a play on ''demote'' as in depression and ''Ee Mote'' is a play on ''Emote'' as in emotion.

[[Image:Motes.PNG|right|frame|Six examples of motes.]]

A '''Mote''' is a small being of magical energy taking a specific elemental or environmental form. Most motes are fragile Battledome items with low offensive or defensive power.

==General Overview==
Motes are [[item]]s categorized under ''Brightvale Motes''. Motes were originally categorized as [[Magic Item]]s, but this changed on ''(need date)''. Though they are considered items, they are living, a fact all the more true from the [[Book]] '''The Water Mote''', which tells the tale of one such Mote.

As of January 2008, there are the following Motes:

205.213.216.254: /* Rejected Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, changing the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified Neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the [[Neopian Magic Shop]]. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

Here are the Colours available via Morphing Potions:

{|align=center

*[[Split]]
*[[Spotted]]
*[[Starry]]
*[[Stone]]
*[[Strawberry]]
*[[Striped]]
*[[Tyrannian]]
*[[Woodland]]
*[[Yellow]]
|}

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raise or lower the Neopet's stats, change the gender, or change the species and/or colour of the selected pet. The Lab does have limitations: it can't zap Neopets into Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your Neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass by him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's Neopet. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's Neopet and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured Chia. [[Kiko]]s can also be turned [[Chokato]] if they eat the ''Magical Chokato Chia Pop''. Interestingly, while both Kikos and [[JubJub]]s can be zapped into [[Garlic]], this colour does not exist for Chias at all.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Magical plushies are sold in the [[Plushie Palace]] along with regular plushies. Any Neopet plushie with the word "Magical" in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet that played with it into that named/coloured pet. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

Here are the colours available from these items:
{|align=center
|-valign=top
|width=250|
*[[Blue]]
*[[Gold]]
*[[Green]]
|width=250|
*[[Red]]
*[[Silver]]
*[[Starry]]
|width=250|
*[[Yellow]]
|}

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The Rainbow Fountain was introduced to [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]] in 2001 as a reward for signing up with sponsors. Signing earned you coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/colour your pet could be changed to, and the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. This sponsor program lasted for a month then shut down.

Years later it was brought back on Neopets and this time there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. Changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory Neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive colours like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your Neopet, it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped PetPet.

205.213.216.254: /* Retired Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, changing the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified Neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the [[Neopian Magic Shop]]. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

Here are the Colours available via Morphing Potions:

{|align=center
|-valign=top

*[[Blue]]
*[[Brown]]
*[[Camouflage]]
*[[Checkered]]

*[[Tyrannian]]
*[[Woodland]]
*[[Yellow]]
|}

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raise or lower the Neopet's stats, change the gender, or change the species and/or colour of the selected pet. The Lab does have limitations: it can't zap Neopets into Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your Neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass by him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's Neopet. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's Neopet and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured Chia. [[Kiko]]s can also be turned [[Chokato]] if they eat the ''Magical Chokato Chia Pop''. Interestingly, while both Kikos and [[JubJub]]s can be zapped into [[Garlic]], this colour does not exist for Chias at all.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Magical plushies are sold in the [[Plushie Palace]] along with regular plushies. Any Neopet plushie with the word "Magical" in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet that played with it into that named/coloured pet. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

Here are the colours available from these items:

'''Shadow''' is one of the many [[colours]] that users can paint thier [[Neopets]]. Users can change the colour of their Neopets to Shadow by using a ''Shadow [[Paint Brush]]'' item at the Rainbow Pool. In addition, the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Lab Ray]] also has a random chance of turning the colour of a user's Neopet to Shadow. Users also have the choice of changing their Neopets' colour to Shadow when they complete a [[Rainbow Fountain|Fountain Faerie Quest]]. Lastly, a Neopet's colour can be changed to Shadow by using an appropriate [[Morphing Potion]]. This colour was formerly known as the colour Shadowed.

[[Black]] is a similar colour for [[Petpet|Petpets]].

==Neopets==
As of July 2010, there are 51 Neopets that can be painted Shadow:

Paint Brush

2010-10-25T19:38:22Z

205.213.216.254: /* Unusable Paint Brushes */

{{construction|reason=Overview of article needed, discussion of main wiki image to use, and completion of a Petpet Paint Brush list}}

[[Image:Neopets PBs.PNG|thumb|An example of some of the 52 Paint Brushes]]

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

==Unusable Paint Brushes==
Very rarely, a paint brush colour is retired. The paint brushes become unusable (and in the case of the Unicorn brush, disappear completely) and pets painted the retired colour no longer remain it, but may be changed to a newer version. An example of this occurred on the 8th of January, 2002, when the Glass Paint Brush was retired, and replaced with the Tyrannian Paint Brush. Some of the glass pets were turned into the newer Tyrannian versions (the Shoyru was one of the first Tyrannian Pets), while the others remained as glass pets until a Tyrannian version was made for each of them. The list of retired brushes is:

*'''[[Glass]]''' - Glass coloured pets were automatically repainted the Tyrannian colour.)
*'''[[Jelly]]''' - The Jelly Paint Brush is a special case as the item was never released and, most likely, never will be , despite the fact that the image can be found in the image database.
*'''[[Shadow]]ed''' - Now the Shadow colour.
*'''[[Lutari]]''' - A colour similar to Mystery Island. No pets were ever released in this colour, so the item is not usable. It does ''not'' "paint" a pet into a Lutari.
*'''Stars''' - Now the Starry colour.
*'''[[Stone]]''' - Stone coloured pets were automatically repainted the Mystery Island colour.
*'''[[Unicorn (colour)| Unicorn]]''' - Replaced by the ''Unicorn Gem'', later renamed to the ''Uni Gem'', Neopets who were painted Unicorn were changed to a red version of that pet.
*'''[[Ice]]''' - The Ice Paint Brush can be found in the image database, but was never relleased as a Paint Brush

Note that, if the actual paint brush (as an item) is retired, it does not always mean it cannot be used. Paint brushes such as the Lost Desert Paint Brush, the Faerie Paint Brush, the Golden Paint Brush, and others are retired, but may still be used and [[The Neopets Team]] continue to make these colours available for new species.

==Petpet Paint Brush==
A [[Petpet]] Paint Brush is designed for painting Petpets a specific colour. They work much in the same way as a Paint Brush for Neopets - they are used at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]], akin to the Rainbow Pool, to paint a Petpet attached to a user's Neopet.

Interestingly, many colours that Neopets cannot obtain with a Paint Brush, only with alternative means such as via the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Secret Laboratory]], are available as a Paint Brush for Petpets, such as [[Robot]] or [[Mutant]] colours. However, there are also some Petpet colours that can only be obtained through the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Laboratory]], such as [[Chocolate]].

As of March 2009, there are 38 different Petpet Paint Brushes...

*There are three colours only available by using a Paint Brush: [[Royal]], [[Usuki]], and [[Quiguki]]. These colours are not available through the [[Rainbow Fountain]] or the [[Lab Ray]].
*It is rumoured that the Lutari Island paintbrush will be called the Tropical Paintbrush.
*The paint brush, ''[[Strawberry]] Fields Forever Paint Brush'', is based on the Beatles song '[[wikipedia:Strawberry Fields Forever|Strawberry Fields Forever]]'.

Colour

2010-10-25T12:44:30Z

205.213.216.254: /* All Petpet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, changing the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified Neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the [[Neopian Magic Shop]]. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

Here are the Colours available via Morphing Potions:

{|align=center

|}

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raise or lower the Neopet's stats, change the gender, or change the species and/or colour of the selected pet. The Lab does have limitations: it can't zap Neopets into Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your Neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass by him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's Neopet. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's Neopet and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured Chia. [[Kiko]]s can also be turned [[Chokato]] if they eat the ''Magical Chokato Chia Pop''. Interestingly, while both Kikos and [[JubJub]]s can be zapped into [[Garlic]], this colour does not exist for Chias at all.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Magical plushies are sold in the [[Plushie Palace]] along with regular plushies. Any Neopet plushie with the word "Magical" in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet that played with it into that named/coloured pet. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

Here are the colours available from these items:

*[[Blue]]
*[[Gold]]
*[[Green]]
*[[Red]]
*[[Silver]]
*[[Starry]]
*[[Yellow]]

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The Rainbow Fountain was introduced to [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]] in 2001 as a reward for signing up with sponsors. Signing earned you coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/colour your pet could be changed to, and the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. This sponsor program lasted for a month then shut down.

Years later it was brought back on Neopets and this time there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. Changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory Neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive colours like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your Neopet, it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped PetPet.

Colour

2010-10-15T20:00:02Z

205.213.216.254: /* Retired Neopet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, chaging the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's [[Neopet]]. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive [[colours]] like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your [[Neopet]], it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped [[PetPet]].

205.213.216.254: /* Unusable Paint Brushes */

{{construction|reason=Overview of article needed, discussion of main wiki image to use, and completion of a Petpet Paint Brush list}}

[[Image:Neopets PBs.PNG|thumb|An example of some of the 52 Paint Brushes]]

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

==Unusable Paint Brushes==
Very rarely, a paint brush colour is retired. The paint brushes become unusable (and in the case of the Unicorn brush, disappear completely) and pets painted the retired colour no longer remain it, but may be changed to a newer version. An example of this occurred on the 8th of January, 2002, when the Glass Paint Brush was retired, and replaced with the Tyrannian Paint Brush. Some of the glass pets were turned into the newer Tyrannian versions (the Shoyru was one of the first Tyrannian Pets), while the others remained as glass pets until a Tyrannian version was made for each of them. The list of retired brushes is:

*'''Glass''' - Glass coloured pets were automatically repainted the Tyrannian colour.)
*'''Jelly''' - The Jelly Paint Brush is a special case as the item was never released and, most likely, never will be , despite the fact that the image can be found in the image database.
*'''Shadowed''' - Now the Shadow colour.
*'''Lutari''' - A colour similar to Mystery Island. No pets were ever released in this colour, so the item is not usable. It does ''not'' "paint" a pet into a Lutari.
*'''Stars''' - Now the Starry colour.
*'''Stone''' - Stone coloured pets were automatically repainted the Mystery Island colour.
*'''[[Unicorn (colour)| Unicorn]]''' - Replaced by the ''Unicorn Gem'', later renamed to the ''Uni Gem'', Neopets who were painted Unicorn were changed to a red version of that pet.
*'''Ice''' - The Ice Paint Brush can be found in the image database, but was never relleased as a Pint Brush

Note that, if the actual paint brush (as an item) is retired, it does not always mean it cannot be used. Paint brushes such as the Lost Desert Paint Brush, the Faerie Paint Brush, the Golden Paint Brush, and others are retired, but may still be used and [[The Neopets Team]] continue to make these colours available for new species.

==Petpet Paint Brush==
A [[Petpet]] Paint Brush is designed for painting Petpets a specific colour. They work much in the same way as a Paint Brush for Neopets - they are used at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]], akin to the Rainbow Pool, to paint a Petpet attached to a user's Neopet.

Interestingly, many colours that Neopets cannot obtain with a Paint Brush, only with alternative means such as via the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Secret Laboratory]], are available as a Paint Brush for Petpets, such as [[Robot]] or [[Mutant]] colours. However, there are also some Petpet colours that can only be obtained through the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Laboratory]], such as [[Chocolate]].

As of March 2009, there are 38 different Petpet Paint Brushes...

==Trivia==
*On May 15th, 2002, the Baby colour won the first Paint Brush competition.
*The second [http://www.neopets.com/comps/newpaintbrush.phtml Paint Brush competition] between the [[Tartan (colour)| Tartan]], Mystery [[Island]] and [[Pirate]] colours went live on May 16th, 2002. Pirate won the majority with 194,375 total votes.
*There are three colours only available by using a Paint Brush: [[Royal]], [[Usuki]], and [[Quiguki]]. These colours are not available through the [[Rainbow Fountain]] or the [[Lab Ray]].
*It is rumoured that the Lutari Island paintbrush will be called the Tropical Paintbrush.
*The paint brush, ''[[Strawberry]] Fields Forever Paint Brush'', is based on the Beatles song '[[wikipedia:Strawberry Fields Forever|Strawberry Fields Forever]]'.

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

==Unusable Paint Brushes==
Very rarely, a paint brush colour is retired. The paint brushes become unusable (and in the case of the Unicorn brush, disappear completely) and pets painted the retired colour no longer remain it, but may be changed to a newer version. An example of this occurred on the 8th of January, 2002, when the Glass Paint Brush was retired, and replaced with the Tyrannian Paint Brush. Some of the glass pets were turned into the newer Tyrannian versions (the Shoyru was one of the first Tyrannian Pets), while the others remained as glass pets until a Tyrannian version was made for each of them. The list of retired brushes is:

*'''Glass''' - Glass coloured pets were automatically repainted the Tyrannian colour.)
*'''Jelly''' - The Jelly Paint Brush is a special case as the item was never released and, most likely, never will be , despite the fact that the image can be found in the image database.
*'''Shadowed''' - Now the Shadow colour.
*'''Lutari''' - A colour similar to Mystery Island. No pets were ever released in this colour, so the item is not usable. It does ''not'' "paint" a pet into a Lutari.
*'''Stars''' - Now the Starry colour.
*'''Stone''' - Stone coloured pets were automatically repainted the Mystery Island colour.
*'''[[Unicorn]]''' - Replaced by the ''Unicorn Gem'', later renamed to the ''Uni Gem'', Neopets who were painted Unicorn were changed to a red version of that pet.
*'''Ice''' - The Ice Paint Brush can be found in the image database, but was never relleased as a Pint Brush

Note that, if the actual paint brush (as an item) is retired, it does not always mean it cannot be used. Paint brushes such as the Lost Desert Paint Brush, the Faerie Paint Brush, the Golden Paint Brush, and others are retired, but may still be used and [[The Neopets Team]] continue to make these colours available for new species.

==Petpet Paint Brush==
A [[Petpet]] Paint Brush is designed for painting Petpets a specific colour. They work much in the same way as a Paint Brush for Neopets - they are used at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]], akin to the Rainbow Pool, to paint a Petpet attached to a user's Neopet.

Interestingly, many colours that Neopets cannot obtain with a Paint Brush, only with alternative means such as via the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Secret Laboratory]], are available as a Paint Brush for Petpets, such as [[Robot]] or [[Mutant]] colours. However, there are also some Petpet colours that can only be obtained through the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Laboratory]], such as [[Chocolate]].

As of March 2009, there are 38 different Petpet Paint Brushes...

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

Colour

2010-10-15T19:49:10Z

205.213.216.254: /* Rejected Neopet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, chaging the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's [[Neopet]]. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive [[colours]] like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your [[Neopet]], it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped [[PetPet]].

Paint Brush

2010-10-15T19:45:19Z

205.213.216.254: /* Trivia */

{{construction|reason=Overview of article needed, discussion of main wiki image to use, and completion of a Petpet Paint Brush list}}

[[Image:Neopets PBs.PNG|thumb|An example of some of the 52 Paint Brushes]]

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

==Unusable Paint Brushes==
Very rarely, a paint brush colour is retired. The paint brushes become unusable (and in the case of the Unicorn brush, disappear completely) and pets painted the retired colour no longer remain it, but may be changed to a newer version. An example of this occurred on the 8th of January, 2002, when the Glass Paint Brush was retired, and replaced with the Tyrannian Paint Brush. Some of the glass pets were turned into the newer Tyrannian versions (the Shoyru was one of the first Tyrannian Pets), while the others remained as glass pets until a Tyrannian version was made for each of them. The list of retired brushes is:

*'''Glass''' - Glass coloured pets were automatically repainted the Tyrannian colour.)
*'''Jelly''' - The Jelly Paint Brush is a special case as the item was never released and, most likely, never will be , despite the fact that the image can be found in the image database.
*'''Shadowed''' - Now the Shadow colour.
*'''Lutari''' - A colour similar to Mystery Island. No pets were ever released in this colour, so the item is not usable. It does ''not'' "paint" a pet into a Lutari.
*'''Stars''' - Now the Starry colour.
*'''Stone''' - Stone coloured pets were automatically repainted the Mystery Island colour.
*'''Unicorn''' - Replaced by the ''Unicorn Gem'', later renamed to the ''Uni Gem'', Neopets who were painted Unicorn were changed to a red version of that pet.
*'''Ice''' - The Ice Paint Brush can be found in the image database, but was never relleased as a Pint Brush

Note that, if the actual paint brush (as an item) is retired, it does not always mean it cannot be used. Paint brushes such as the Lost Desert Paint Brush, the Faerie Paint Brush, the Golden Paint Brush, and others are retired, but may still be used and [[The Neopets Team]] continue to make these colours available for new species.

==Petpet Paint Brush==
A [[Petpet]] Paint Brush is designed for painting Petpets a specific colour. They work much in the same way as a Paint Brush for Neopets - they are used at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]], akin to the Rainbow Pool, to paint a Petpet attached to a user's Neopet.

Interestingly, many colours that Neopets cannot obtain with a Paint Brush, only with alternative means such as via the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Secret Laboratory]], are available as a Paint Brush for Petpets, such as [[Robot]] or [[Mutant]] colours. However, there are also some Petpet colours that can only be obtained through the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Laboratory]], such as [[Chocolate]].

As of March 2009, there are 38 different Petpet Paint Brushes...

==Trivia==
*On May 15th, 2002, the Baby colour won the first Paint Brush competition.
*The second [http://www.neopets.com/comps/newpaintbrush.phtml Paint Brush competition] between the [[Tartan (colour)| Tartan]], Mystery [[Island]] and [[Pirate]] colours went live on May 16th, 2002. Pirate won the majority with 194,375 total votes.
*There are three colours only available by using a Paint Brush: [[Royal]], [[Usuki]], and [[Quiguki]]. These colours are not available through the [[Rainbow Fountain]] or the [[Lab Ray]].
*It is rumoured that the Lutari Island paintbrush will be called the Tropical Paintbrush.
*The paint brush, ''[[Strawberry]] Fields Forever Paint Brush'', is based on the Beatles song '[[wikipedia:Strawberry Fields Forever|Strawberry Fields Forever]]'.

Tartan was and is a [[rejected]] [[colour]], it first was going to be for the [[Aisha]] and [[Moehog]], but the colour had lost by being positioned last in the end with 64,279 votes. The Tartan [[Chia Pop]] might have also have been [[released]] when there was the second [[Paint Brush]] voting when one of colour Tartan was one of the choices.

[[Image:Neopets PBs.PNG|thumb|An example of some of the 52 Paint Brushes]]

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

==Unusable Paint Brushes==
Very rarely, a paint brush colour is retired. The paint brushes become unusable (and in the case of the Unicorn brush, disappear completely) and pets painted the retired colour no longer remain it, but may be changed to a newer version. An example of this occurred on the 8th of January, 2002, when the Glass Paint Brush was retired, and replaced with the Tyrannian Paint Brush. Some of the glass pets were turned into the newer Tyrannian versions (the Shoyru was one of the first Tyrannian Pets), while the others remained as glass pets until a Tyrannian version was made for each of them. The list of retired brushes is:

*'''Glass''' - Glass coloured pets were automatically repainted the Tyrannian colour.)
*'''Jelly''' - The Jelly Paint Brush is a special case as the item was never released and, most likely, never will be , despite the fact that the image can be found in the image database.
*'''Shadowed''' - Now the Shadow colour.
*'''Lutari''' - A colour similar to Mystery Island. No pets were ever released in this colour, so the item is not usable. It does ''not'' "paint" a pet into a Lutari.
*'''Stars''' - Now the Starry colour.
*'''Stone''' - Stone coloured pets were automatically repainted the Mystery Island colour.
*'''Unicorn''' - Replaced by the ''Unicorn Gem'', later renamed to the ''Uni Gem'', Neopets who were painted Unicorn were changed to a red version of that pet.
*'''Ice''' - The Ice Paint Brush can be found in the image database, but was never relleased as a Pint Brush

Note that, if the actual paint brush (as an item) is retired, it does not always mean it cannot be used. Paint brushes such as the Lost Desert Paint Brush, the Faerie Paint Brush, the Golden Paint Brush, and others are retired, but may still be used and [[The Neopets Team]] continue to make these colours available for new species.

==Petpet Paint Brush==
A [[Petpet]] Paint Brush is designed for painting Petpets a specific colour. They work much in the same way as a Paint Brush for Neopets - they are used at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]], akin to the Rainbow Pool, to paint a Petpet attached to a user's Neopet.

Interestingly, many colours that Neopets cannot obtain with a Paint Brush, only with alternative means such as via the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Secret Laboratory]], are available as a Paint Brush for Petpets, such as [[Robot]] or [[Mutant]] colours. However, there are also some Petpet colours that can only be obtained through the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Laboratory]], such as [[Chocolate]].

As of March 2009, there are 38 different Petpet Paint Brushes...

*There are three colours only available by using a Paint Brush: [[Royal]], [[Usuki]], and [[Quiguki]]. These colours are not available through the [[Rainbow Fountain]] or the [[Lab Ray]].
*It is rumoured that the Lutari Island paintbrush will be called the Tropical Paintbrush.
*The paint brush, ''Strawberry Fields Forever Paint Brush'', is based on the Beatles song '[[wikipedia:Strawberry Fields Forever|Strawberry Fields Forever]]'.

Coconut is a [[colour]] only for the [[JubJub]], which this colour can be painted to your JubJub by selecting it to be zapped by the [[Lab Ray]]. This colour was originated in [[Mystery Island]]. This colour will probably never be an avaialable colour for a Magical [[Chia Pop]], but this colour is only available for the JubJub, not for the [[Kiko]] or [[Chia]].

Colour

2010-10-15T16:25:39Z

205.213.216.254: /* All Active Neopet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, chaging the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's [[Neopet]]. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive [[colours]] like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your [[Neopet]], it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped [[PetPet]].

Mallow is so far a [[colour]] that you can [[paint]] your [[Grundo]] only from zapping it with the [[Lab Ray]].

Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's [[Neopet]]. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

==Unusable Paint Brushes==
Very rarely, a paint brush colour is retired. The paint brushes become unusable (and in the case of the Unicorn brush, disappear completely) and pets painted the retired colour no longer remain it, but may be changed to a newer version. An example of this occurred on the 8th of January, 2002, when the Glass Paint Brush was retired, and replaced with the Tyrannian Paint Brush. Some of the glass pets were turned into the newer Tyrannian versions (the Shoyru was one of the first Tyrannian Pets), while the others remained as glass pets until a Tyrannian version was made for each of them. The list of retired brushes is:

*'''Glass''' - Glass coloured pets were automatically repainted the Tyrannian colour.)
*'''Jelly''' - The Jelly Paint Brush is a special case as the item was never released and, most likely, never will be , despite the fact that the image can be found in the image database.
*'''Shadowed''' - Now the Shadow colour.
*'''Lutari''' - A colour similar to Mystery Island. No pets were ever released in this colour, so the item is not usable. It does ''not'' "paint" a pet into a Lutari.
*'''Stars''' - Now the Starry colour.
*'''Stone''' - Stone coloured pets were automatically repainted the Mystery Island colour.
*'''Unicorn''' - Replaced by the ''Unicorn Gem'', later renamed to the ''Uni Gem'', Neopets who were painted Unicorn were changed to a red version of that pet.
*'''Ice''' - The Ice Paint Brush can be found in the image database, but was never relleased as a Pint Brush

Note that, if the actual paint brush (as an item) is retired, it does not always mean it cannot be used. Paint brushes such as the Lost Desert Paint Brush, the Faerie Paint Brush, the Golden Paint Brush, and others are retired, but may still be used and [[The Neopets Team]] continue to make these colours available for new species.

==Petpet Paint Brush==
A [[Petpet]] Paint Brush is designed for painting Petpets a specific colour. They work much in the same way as a Paint Brush for Neopets - they are used at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]], akin to the Rainbow Pool, to paint a Petpet attached to a user's Neopet.

Interestingly, many colours that Neopets cannot obtain with a Paint Brush, only with alternative means such as via the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Secret Laboratory]], are available as a Paint Brush for Petpets, such as [[Robot]] or [[Mutant]] colours. However, there are also some Petpet colours that can only be obtained through the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Laboratory]], such as [[Chocolate]].

As of March 2009, there are 38 different Petpet Paint Brushes...

[[Image:Neopets PBs.PNG|thumb|An example of some of the 52 Paint Brushes]]

A '''Paint Brush''' is a special [[item]] which gives the user the ability to change the [[colour]] of one of their [[Neopet]]s. Paint Brushes were originally found by [[Random Event]]s, which means they can be bought from other user's [[shop]]s or [[Auctions]], and are also given away as prizes from [[Contests]]. Special Paint Brushes can also be bought in the [[Hidden Tower]], and newer [[plots]] also allow users to buy Paint Brushes with the points they collected from participating (the first plot to do this was the [[Lost Desert Plot]], which rewarded the '''Lost Desert Paint Brush''' for 70,000 points). The recent addition of Key Quest to the site provided an additional method of gaining Paint Brushes by allowing players to win certain Paint Brushes as prizes, including the Biscuit, Camouflage, Cloud, Ghost, Glowing, Striped, Snow, Speckled, Starry and Tyrannian Paint Brushes. There are also Petpet paint brushes, which change the colour of a [[Petpet]].

In addition to providing new ''colours'' for Neopets, some paint brush colours seem more costume-like and fanciful, such as Halloween, Plushie and Tyrannian. Some paint brushes are rarer than others, but aside from the no-trade starter brushes, they all rank as expensive items.

To use a paint brush on a Neopet, a proper paint brush colour scheme must be available for the chosen Neopet, then the user must go to the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]], where its waters allow the brushes' magic to work. Using just a paint brush on a Neopet or going to the Rainbow Pool will not change the colour of the Neopet, as both must be used in conjunction for the magic to work. A Paint brush can only be used once, and after using it on a Neopet, it will disappear. The Rainbow Pool should not be confused with the [[Rainbow Fountain]].

Colour

2010-10-13T17:06:25Z

205.213.216.254: /* Rejected Neopet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, chaging the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's [[Neopet]]. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive [[colours]] like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your [[Neopet]], it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped [[PetPet]].

Colour

2010-10-12T20:49:31Z

205.213.216.254: /* Retired Neopet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, chaging the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's [[Neopet]]. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect unconverted Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive [[colours]] like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
This area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Event]]s. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your [[Neopet]], it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped [[PetPet]].

Colour

2010-10-06T14:30:38Z

205.213.216.254: /* Rejected Neopet Colours */

'''Colour''' is an attribute of a [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] that affects its appearance.

When a user creates a Neopet using the ''Create a Neopet'' feature they can choose one of four basic colours for their Neopet: Blue, Yellow, Green, or Red.

Since Petpets are items, chaging the colour of a Petpet will change that Petpet into a different item.

==Changing a Neopet's colour==

===Paint Brushes===
:''Main Article: [[Paint Brush]]''

The most common way to change a Neopet's colour is to paint it with a Paint Brush at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. To do this, a user must first have one or more Paint Brushes in their [[inventory]]. Next they must go to the Rainbow Pool main page, where they will be shown a picture of each of their Neopets. Beneath each Neopet, there will be a drop down box containing each of the Paint Brushes in the user's inventory that can be used on that particular Neopet. The user must then select their desired Paint Brush and click the submit button to paint their pet.

===Morphing Potions===
:''Main Article: [[Morphing Potion]]
A morphing potion is a potion that will change the Neopet's species/colour to the specified neopet in the potion's name. They are distributed at the Neopian Magic Shop. A potion that morphs a Neopet into a Mutant neopet is name a Transmogrification Potion.

Once a Neopet has drank a morphing potion, they acquire all the genes of the entitled species and/or colour, but can be transformed once more with a new potion, painted, or change by the Lab Ray.

===Secret Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Secret Laboratory]]

There are nine map pieces you can get from a [[Random Event]] or from a user's store. When the lab ray is used on the selected pet it can raises or lowers the Neopet's stats, changes the sex of your selected Neopet,
changes the species and/or colour of the selected pet, and you can not paint a the zapped Neopet Baby, Pirate, Plushie, Quiguki, Royal, or Usuki.

===Magma Pool===
{{main|Magma Pool}}
When the [[Magma Pool]] is visited, your neopet will change to a [[Magma]] Neopet. Unfortunately, there is a [[Magma Pool Guard|Magma]] [[Tonu]] blocking the entrance, and will not let you in, however, he might be dozing off on the job and you can pass through him.

===Random Events===
:''Main Article: [[Random Event]]''

Though they occur rarely, certain Random Events can change the colour of a user's Neopet. These Random Events will only change the colour of the user's active Neopet, and as of April 16, 2010, they will not affect [[unconverted]] Neopets.

There are currently five colour-changing Random Events. In the first of these events, a torrent of multi-coloured water falls on the user's Neopet and changes it to a random colour. In another, [[Boochi]] fires his ray gun at the user's [[Neopet]] and changes its colour to [[Baby]]. There is also a [[Random Event]] in which the colour of the user's Neopet spontaneously changes to Invisible. Lastly, there are two colour-changing Random Events that can only occur if the user's Neopet is [[Neopet#mood|unhappy]]. The first of these will turn the unhappy pet Blue and the other will turn it Red.

===Magical Chia Pops===
:''Main Article: Magical [[Chia Pops]]
If your Chia eats one of these, the [[Chia]] will transform into a uniquely coloured [[Chia]], also this can apply for the [[Kiko]] with the chokato-flavoured [[magical chia pop]]. Also the onion-flavoured magical chia pop can transform the Kiko or the [[JubJub]], not yet for the Chia, strangely.

===Magical Plushies===
:''Main Article: [[Plushies]]
Another kind of plushie that is also vendored in the Plushie Palace. Any Neopet plushie using the word Magical in it's name is considered a unique item that acts similar to a Morphing Potion and will actually change the pet to that named/coloured pet that played with it. The item is only good for one use and, after, the magic will be used up and the item will become a simple Green Kiko Plushie.

===Rainbow Fountain===
:''Main Article: [[Rainbow Fountain]]
The [[Rainbow Fountain]] was showed up in [[Neopets]] in 2001 as a sponsor gift. If you would of signed up with sponsors players, you would of earned coupons toward painting/changing your pet. There used to be no restriction of what [[species]]/[[colour]] your pet could be changed to. And the only colour exclusive to the [[Secret Laboratory]] was Robot. Then this Sponsor shut down.

Years later it was brought back on neopets, also there were some restrictions on colours you could paint your pet. The fountain won't allow you to paint your pet [[MSP]], [[Royal]], [[Sponge]], [[Ice]], [[Usuki]], [[Quiguki]] or [[Robot]]. And changing species was no longer an option. You must successfully finish a [[Quest]] for the [[Fountain Faerie]].

There is an item called [[Flask of Rainbow Fountain Water]]. When utilized on your Neopet it will randomly paint it any colour available for that species.

==Changing a Petpet's colour==

===Petpet Paint Brush===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Paint Brush]]

These Paint Brushes are made for PetPets, even some secret laboratory neopet colours are made in paint Brushes for PetPets. There are two exclusive [[colours]] like [[Dung]] and [[Black]].

===Petpet Laboratory===
:''Main Article: [[Petpet Laboratory]]
Tthis area can be utilized by obtaining all nine pieces of the Petpet Laboratory Map, these can be obtained from [[Random Events]. It can change the type, colour, level, name of the selected Petpet, or even make it disappear forever. Petpets who are targeted by the Petpet Lab ray are unable to be awarded by the [[Petpet Protection League]], because they will see it as Petpet cruelty. If the petpet is removed from your [[Neopet]], it will reverse the effects that are applied to the zapped [[PetPet]].
