From what I understand specials are part of the platty complex much like the super stripe. With lessers they make platinums, or platty daddies, with butters they make butter daddies, with mojaves they make crystals, and I am sure they will react with phantoms if it is ever tried. This is mainly a theory of mine, but I have done my research and it is accurate to what I have learned for myself. ~Caylan.S.~
