I think it's just a little bit of texturing since they're pretty big and it looks nicer than just having stark color transitions. That's what I've always assumed anyway

I also interpreted it as a texture/rough gradient thing. a LOT of fantroll artists did that and ill fully admit its actually an element I use in my own art to this day (or speckles but usually scratches vs speckles depends on the brush used lol) its just a nice way to do stylized color transitions imo

There once was a weenie named Tavros Whose horns were big enough to stab those Who mocked his wheelchair Or his vertical hair Or his private attraction to Zapdos
