It is also increased color in addition to an "overall wash of reduced black" according to the Boaphile. Just a reduced black would be hypomelanism. There is nothing in the definition of hypomelanism by the way, that indicates increased color either, but there is to the pastel definition according to Ronne. He doesn't say it is limited to these two genertic looks either, but sort of indicates there are more suble traits he selected for too. I accept his authority since he made the first great pastels, through selective breeding for multiple traits.
