I never played pokemon i've only WATCHED pokemon

We only see Animon in gold and silver in the files, alot of people used the Ditto color scheme for Animon, Ditto evolve to Animon with metal coat so it might be steel type, is Animon's color scheme Ditto's or gray, because in certain gold and silver sprites they have color(or maybe thats on crystal) its either gray or pink cause im pretty sure the idea of Animon is in gold and silver not crystal; Someone search pokemon crystals files; I havent played pokemon so i only know pokemon from youtube or something
