Don’t forget that Discord brought the Smooze along to make Fluttershy jealous.
Also it grows throughout the episode, just as Discord gets more jealous. He then locks it in the vault, hiding him as well as his emotions. When Discord got angry the Smooze attacked everyone, showing his true feelings. Finally, when Discord gets over his jealousy, he shrinks the Smooze down.
The Smooze really was a symbol of Discord’s jealousy.

My point stands. They changed it to green because it makes more sense for slime to be green, whereas with G1 the animators in Korea probably had too much purple paint they didn’t know what to do with and just figured “Why not spend it on Smooze”.
And you couldn’t even get a joke out of him in your stand up routine. Hell Maud Pie practically handed you one with that Basic of Jokes comment and you failed to deliver on that. How old are you again?

This would probably be the time to reference that one dated meme.
Actually, I thought it was a Gak reference. But OP is probably right; the show is notorious for Visual Puns like this.

The Smooze was originally purple, so making it green had to be a conscious decision and not just “eh we don’t care”.
