Color pairing a TomatoMon with a CheeseMon was meant to create a red yellow type PizzaMon, or color mixing a TomatoMon with a CheeseMon was meant to make an orange type OrangeMon.

There is a lot to love here, I especially love the ambition, but I feel like there are a couple of missed opportunities. For example, when you get to choose your colormon, you don't get to see it, which is a shame. The battles also don't yield any sort of rewards from what i've experienced, so it's usually the best to just run after fighting every monster a couple of times. I did like the game overall, it has some really nice tunes and the visual style reminds me of YIIK, which I still think looks awesome.
