Pokemon-go – What do the bar colors mean, during gym fight

pokemon-go

In Pokémon Go fights, a bar shows your remaining HP.
If I understand correctly, the level of remaining HP is the length of the bar.
But in addition, this bar has colors:

  • Green
  • Orange
  • Red

Pokemon Go gym fight color bars

QUESTION: What is the meaning of each color?
For instance, if Venonat has its bar 10% red and 5% orange (as seen above), what does it actually mean?

Best Answer

From my experience with the game, I have theorized this from the colors:

Green

Health is excellent or near full.

Yellow

Health is somewhere around the middle of the bar.

Orange

Can show up at any time during a fight, it indicates how much health a Pokemon is about to lose from an attack.

Red

Health is critically low, and the Pokemon may faint soon.

I'll have to look around and see if there's a concrete source backing this up, but this has been my experience with gyms and the health bar thus far.
