Quoted By:
red blue green and yellow <-- elements (don't count, they had no plans for symbolic yet)
silver, gold <-- alchemic symbols (moon for silver and sun for gold)
gen 3 gems <-- symbol for the city of heaven
perl, diamond <-- symbol for the city of heaven (perls as doors and build on adamant - while adamant was a name for all gems back the time also diamond and gen 3 gems)
platinum = the divine light. the light not comming from the sun or the moon but from god - which is present in the city of heaven.
heart, soul (also connected with sun, moon, silver, gold - in symbolic and lore)
black, white = ying, yang
x, y = symbol for differences between multiverses. introducing megas which don't exist in another universe befor those games.
so we basicly went from universe x to y.
alpha omega = start and ending at the same time - z and z.
again religious symbols
sun and moon = it was bound to happen. alchemy all over the place. same symbols like gold and silver.
plus, minus? no. don't think so.
