This verse from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam ([[SB 10.8.13]]) was spoken by Garga Muni when he was performing the rituals at Lord Kṛṣṇa’s name-giving ceremony.

This confirms that in past Kali-yugas the Lord also had incarnated in a body that was yellow in hue. It is understood that the Lord incarnates in different colors for the different yugas (Satya, Tretā, Dvāpara and Kali). Accepting the color yellow (pīta), as well as other characteristics, the Lord incarnated as Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. This is the verdict of all Vedic authorities.
