This palette is also used for the large sprites of all Pokémon Trainers (including the player Red), as well as Professor Oak. It is also used for all the Pokémon icons at the party, nickname, and trade screens. In the Virtual Console releases of Pokémon Yellow, Jynx's skin was changed to be purple, probably related to controversies related to it being black.

In the new game intro, this palette is also used for NidorinoRGB and PikachuY.
