I checked the Archive and didn't see this stated perse, but if I missed it, feel free to delete this.

In Monster Rancher Advance, I've uncovered there are a few Monsters whose use as a sub is almost under an HTML style of coding. Well, I can't say that's the coding for certain, but that's what it reminded me of when I discovered this. At the Shrine, when it asks for the name of the tablet, type:

Blue = Start off with this followed by any other Letter and it'll create a Tiger subtype.

Red = Believe it or not, this word followed by a Letter is the key to create a Dragon subtype.

Pink = Mocchi subtype with Letter, for those of you interested.

Yellow = Suezo subtype with Letter, for those interested.

Purple = The ever-nasty Naga subtype is tacked onto the Monster if preceding a Letter.

Green = For the standard Zuum subtype preceding a Letter.


There may (and probably is) a coding trigger for each Breed, but these are all that I've found. The other common colors:

Silver
Gold
Brown
Orange
Black
White

Resulted in no consistency as a tag word. Likewise, Teal and Fuschia failed to be consistent in creating Lesione and Pixie lines. If there is a tag for the afforementioned Breeds, I'm betting there's one for the others. There's likely even a coding tag for solid Main-Breeeds. It's an easy way to finish up a Book after you get those Rares ^_^

That's really cool info, thanks!

I take back what I said about Brown. Apparently, Brown is the key to the Mogi subtype.

Will these work with the "special words"? Like entering "RedLADY" to get a Daina (Pixie/Dragon)?
