Maybe some pollution in the soil in grasstown caused her fur to become different colors.

Also shiny lopunny is not purple like Chaco, she is pink and not all of her body is pink at that.

This is shown here:

You got a incorrect sprite. The Bulbapedia sprites look like this:

On a side note: Buneary and Lopunny's Japanese names are: Mimirol and Mimilop And we are discussing a Mimiga

I just realized something!
A certain purple Mimiga said:
I feel like a princess.
Maybe this is more proof that Chako is royalty?

...There was proof to begin with? And I hate to break this to you, but I don't think your magic Cave Story dreams are exactly canon.

Chaco is a mutant!

Seriously though, while the "dying her fur with jellyfish juice/something else" theory is pretty viable since she's said to be fashionable/hip, it's probably a mutation that may not even be particularly unique to her. After all, what about, say, pet rats and rabbits? They are very similar to their wild cousins (which is why I didn't want to use dogs/cats as an example) but come in a wide range of colors. In both instances, rat/rabbit catchers kept unusually colored animals as curios and began breeding them to produce new and varied colors.

I'd feel like this theory would be more valid if we had seen other "colored" mimiga, though.

I think she likes to seductively rub jellyfish juice all over her body when nobody's around.
The result? purple.

What I think is probably very stupid.
I think she painted herself purple out of boredom.

I kinda just thought it was her natural fur color. xD

I don't know if this has been talked about before, but why are King's eyes a different color?

Heroin

It actually makes sense since Arthur was the *hero* of the Mimigas, when he died King was all alone and he wanted to subsitute his hero for something else...

Slightly off topic but:

1) He only had a teeny tiny little bit.

2) He was rabid for a while but, over time, turned back to normal.

3) He is more resistant to the effects of red flowers than the other mimiga.
