Of the samples we have thus far, which is the most likely to be Ninian's sample? Or, more accurately; is Ninian's Sample most likely the Beige Fur?
@Tashy the Furret

It's infuriating to tell with a color that has thus far only been described in a way that isn't a color! I've been quietly losing my mind over this the whole game.
Yeah but I think Numel is yellow not beige-ish at all...all of its art shows it being yellow or even more orange, not beige.

But you're right, we don't seem to have a matching sample for it. There are still a couple things we didn't unlock and it's possible the sample for the Numel could be there (a brass desk and a high shelf).

The only possibility I can see from what we have is the green shell fragment as it doesn't seem to match any other Pokemon in the list? And maybe if Numel was thought of as more turtley than furry it could work? It contains magma apparently so I guess it could technically be shell-like.. I dunno...
