The worst rainbow ever. Why don't they make rainbow pets like the spectrum on Subeta, rather than just having stripes of colours covering the poor Neopets?

Because a Spectrum includes the white, while a rainbow is only the production of the separation of the white light into other colors.

This is the reason why Rainbow pets are, and should be all colorful, while Spectrum pets are mostly white.

I think we can stop worrying about it, it hasn't been released at the pool. Probably they realized how awful it was and decided against releasing it for the time being. That or they simply decided against having another colour have all 54 pets able to be painted it. In any case I agree with everyone else, this is really poor art. It looks like the pet ticked off Rainbow Brite or something went horribly wrong at a paint factory.

I just don't get what makes this rainbow pet so horrible from the other 53? All rainbow pets suck. *Runs away from Madge*
Once you see how well the color 'Spectrum' is excecuted, every Rainbow pet doesn't look any better or worse to me. (with 1 or 2 exceptions) I do agree that it's terrible, with the misaligned stripes, but it's still just another rainbow pet.

Too me, its not that its a far cry worse then other Rainbow pets, its just that its sheer lazy. There was absolutely no effort to make the stripes conform and flow with the body. They could have done some really neat rainbow effects with the ruff and tail and they just ignored those opportunities.

There are a bunch of horrible Spectrum pets as well.

Many of the Rainbow pets are pretty painful to look at, agreed. But this one's just "throw some horizontal patches of rainbow colors layered over the lineart image with maybe a few bucket-fills." They almost completely neglect the concept of "this pet has rainbow bands along the contours of its body."

The pre-customization Rainbow Xweetok is such a stark contrast of that. It's like the artist was thinking "bleh everyone hates the customization base pets now - well we don't care anymore either. Here, have a rainbow."
