From NERD:

Enchi balls are velvety in appearance, with heavily-marked, contrasty faces. This is also a reduced pattern mutation, which makes the Enchi an exciting component for refining & enhancing other mutations through designer combos. The Enchi morph is co-dominant trait; the Enchi is the heterozygous form of this morph, while the homozygous form is the Super Enchi. Initially this mutation was called the "Enchi Pastel," however, many ball python enthusiasts have dropped the pastel reference. It's obvious that the Enchi is much more than just another Pastel variation - we've bred Enchis to our Lemon Pastel lineage & hatched a new combo involving both traits, instead of a homozygous ("Super") Pastel of any sort. We're hard at work exploring the potential of this beautiful mutation!

I'm glad you all posted those pictures and explanations, because I too have been confused about Enchis! Maybe I wasn't seeing good photos, but to me they just looked like a reduced normal. Now seeing a few nice examples, I'd actually say it's more like a reduced pastel - and I do love the combos they produce. Might have to get me one of those...

Enchis are a powerful cleanup morph, they do wonders in combos. Im SO getting an enchi next year, and hopefully a desert too.

Oooooh... the deserts and desert combos I've seen (mostly on ProExotics) are just gorgeous. Unfortunately they're also way out of my price range, at least for now. But dammmm, what I wouldn't do for one of these:
