* In ''Film/KongSkullIsland'' and ''The Birth of Kong'', the boneyard where the Skullcrawlers live has a sickly yellowish-green hue in the air. The files in the ''[[Franchise/MonsterVerse Kong: Skull Island Cinematic Adventure]]'' sourcebook confirm that this is because geothermal vents in the boneyard emit poison gases.

''VideoGame/Pikmin2001'': The Smoky Progg leaves a trail of green sludge that instantly kills any Pikmin that touches it.it. In ''VideoGame/Pikmin4'', it is recolored red (although the Progg itself remains green) and is referred to as "gloom," a special type of hazard that no Pikmin is immune to.
** ''VideoGame/Pikmin4'': Poison has been redesigned from the purple it was in the last game to a deep green/teal color, and most enemies that spawn poison are given this color. This is likely to avoid any confusion with the pink Winged Pikmin co-existing in story mode, and the Purple Pikmin having been given a lighter design than what they had in the game poison hazards debuted.

* In addition to the previously-mentioned purple Iodine and green Chlorine, the rest of the halogen elements are all instantly recognisable for their colour. Bromine is either a red-brown liquid or a bright orange gas, and Fluorine, the most reactive of the lot that isn’t Astatine (read on) is a very pale yellow gas. Iodine is bright purple, as noted above. Astatine would be black, but it's so radioactive that a sample large enough for us to see [[StuffBlowingUp would promptly explode in a nuclear fireball]]. Be careful with halogens, everyone.

* While Red Fuming Nitric Acid is definitely dangerous, its other prominent aspect is its extreme reactivity, which is why its name is basically ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin; it’s bright red (this colour being inherited from one of the other nitrogen compounds dissolved in the acid, Dinitrogen tetroxide), emits clouds of nitrogen dioxide, and may bubble intensely while it’s boiling off the nitrogen dioxide gas. As rocket engineers in Germany and the Soviet Union found out, this compound is also quite useful as a component in rocket fuel, though much more efficient compounds have been discovered since.

* ''Manga/OnePiece'' has several instances of purple poison, including Crocodile's Hookhand, Wanze's BigFancySword, Marigold's spit, [[PetalPower Musshuru's spores]] and, of course, [[PoisonousPerson Magellan himself]]. It also has PoisonIsCorrosive effect and noxious steams.
** Later, during the Punk Hazard arc, Smiley's poison gas is clearly described as "purple", even if the comic is in black and white.
*** Smiley's anime appearance shows he's a red-violet color rather than pure purple. The noxious gasses he releases are actually purple though. Smiley's master, Caesar Clown, utilizes light blue poison gasses with a purple hue, which turn completely dark purple when he goes OneWingedAngel.

* ''VideoGame/EtrianOdysseyVBeyondTheMyth'': While the standard poison ailment is portrayed with color green in-battle, as has been the case in the rest of the series, the toxic puddles found in Fetid Necropolis are colored intense purple. During day, these puddles have to be avoided due to their harmful effects, but during night they dry up and their areas are safe to walk on. Similar puddles are found much later in Empyreal Bridge, but those remain active 24/7.

** Invoked and subverted in the anime when Happy attacks some Edolas soldiers with a bag of white "Poisonous Mist", which is actually harmless flour.

** Many venomous reptiles, unlike the frogs, also zig-zag this. Some are brightly-colored, such as the red-yellow-black coral snake ("red touches yellow, kills a fellow") and the eyelash viper (just yellow, also kills a fellow). There are many snakes that are brightly colored and not venomous however (like those that mimic coral snakes) or dull-colored and venomous, like the brownish King Cobra and the dead-leaf-colored Gaboon viper.
