Install

pip install pokepalette

How to use

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import pokepalette

There is a handy SimpleNamespace with all the pokemons and their colours available:

pokepalette.PokemonColours.pikachu

['#f5e551',
 '#f5bc1f',
 '#000000',
 '#9b5100',
 '#dd9300',
 '#613007',
 '#404049',
 '#282828',
 '#fef5a3',
 '#c41f17',
 '#e55940',
 '#fefefe',
 '#727282']

pikachu_cmap = pokepalette.get_colormap('pikachu')

You can plot passing the pikachu colors directly

# Pie chart, where the slices will be ordered and plotted counter-clockwise:
labels = 'Frogs', 'Hogs', 'Dogs', 'Logs'
sizes = [15, 30, 45, 10]
explode = (0, 0.1, 0, 0)  # only "explode" the 2nd slice (i.e. 'Hogs')

fig1, ax1 = plt.subplots()
ax1.pie(sizes, colors=pokepalette.PokemonColours.pikachu, explode=explode, labels=labels, autopct='%1.1f%%',
        shadow=True, startangle=90)
ax1.axis('equal')  # Equal aspect ratio ensures that pie is drawn as a circle.

plt.show()

or passing the corresponding matplotlib's colormap

plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50]
plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True

N = 50
x = np.random.randn(N)
y = np.random.randn(N)

plt.scatter(x, y, c=x, cmap=pikachu_cmap)

plt.show()
