Hi Omar, thanks for the feedback.

I think it happens at around here: at around 10:25

CATCH – Creating a Pokéball in Blender -> 4. Chapter 3 – The Beautification -> Adding Decals (1/2) : 10:25

Adding Decals (1/2) – CG Cookie

I fiddled around and I removed the connection between a Mapping and Noise texture node which is responsible for adding the dirt effect. It brings back the colors making the decals more vivid. I am no expert in the shading editor so I am not sure why this happens.

I also brought down the metallic effect because I also noticed that this had a darkening impact on the decals.

I think this looks much better.
