Purps

Purps are the least valuable substance on the face of the earth, also known as the Elegant wing pattern for Vivillon.

Background
Purps primarily originate from Japan but can also be seen crawling out of ARTPOP's gooch on cleanse days.

Role in GTS
Purps are infamously known for lingering in the GTS without ever being accpeted for trades. More notably, the prolific trade descriptions of "NO PURPS" in exchange for other kinds of Vivillon - or even Purps themselves - are for the better part neglected. This is to say, a Vivillon received through the GTS will be a Purp 99% of the time.

Legacy
Other than inspiring the Lady Gaga album ARTPURP and a rejected ANTM contestant for Divorce Reasons, the Baby Came Out Elegantkirsten, the sole historical role of Purps has been one of misery and beige. Since the release of Pokemon X Y there have been countless reports of Purp-Related Suicide.

Purp Related Suicide
An estimated amount of 1 out of every 5 people who receive Purps through trade commit suicide. This is more than the national average of people who have to go on call with any member of the PGA.

Purp Civil Rights Movement
Rosa Purps is a purp who refused to move out of her seat and go sit in the back of the bus when an Icy snow Vivillon told her to. This was the first step towards Purp Equality.
