New pothos leaves have funky color palette. Is it okay?
Curious if this is normal or if these leaves are saying something. First photo shows what leaves usually look like. Others show funky leaves. Keep outside under a canopy to avoid direct light. Water every 12 days and pot has drainage.
Yup completely normal, in fact your pothos looks super healthy and thriving! Congrats:)

The more light the more variegated generally

yeah, you’re good. The new leaves haven’t hardened off yet so the colors are looking rather shiny and a little blended, the distinction and intensity between the colors will increase as the leaves harden off. variegation with a golden Pothos is light dependent, so an increase in light will increase the variegation, it is possible the plant has recently been receiving a little more light than it has previously.
Also, it’s never advised to water on a schedule. You want to water when the top 2 to 3 inches of the substrate is bone dry. Watering on a schedule is not advised because tons of factors go into the rapidity with which the substrate dries, like relative humidity, root growth/plant growth, watering technique, the amount of light, and temperature.
