This is just a chart to show how much gain in power you get as you increase in level. Red, Black, and Pink are just guesses, based on the pattern.
% over % over
previous d6 base
d6 --------- ---------
d8 33.3% 33.3%
d10 25.0% 66.7%
d12 20.0% 100.0%
d16 33.3% 166.7%
d20 25.0% 233.3%
d24 20.0% 300.0%
d32 33.3% 433.3% |

The pink die will be a d30.
How do I know? Because cards like DNA Resequencing says to pick a number from 1 to 30.

I believe your methodology is wrong. The increase in the number of sides is not what determines the die's power - its the expected (or average) value that the die gives you when you roll it. I would calculate the power increases like so: | Die | Avg Result | % Inc over previous | % Inc over d6 | | d6 | 3.5 | --- | --- | | d8 | 4.5 | 28.57 | 28.57 | | d10 | 5.5 | 22.22 | 57.14 | | d12 | 6.5 | 18.18 | 85.71 | | d16 | 8.5 | 30.77 | 142.86 | | d20 | 10.5 | 23.53 | 200 | | d24 | 12.5 | 19.05 | 257.14 | | d30 | 15.5 | 24 | 342.86 |

Good call. My chart I guess is the potential power increase
