I just purchased this pastel (or so he said) at an expo, I looked around on the net and mine seems to be a lot darker than others. I think it might be the fact that I have been bumming myself out about it and thinking it's a lot darker.. I dunno I been a little stressed about it so I decided since I know very little about BP coloration I'd ask someone here. It was marked as a pastel ($95) and the guy seemed like he knew a lot and had a ton of other morphs.

My question is, is this a pastel that is just darker or is it a lighter normal? He said it was bred from a pastel and a normal.
