Hare Krishna,
The verse you mentioned is SB 10.8.13.
Srila Prabhupada in his purport explains: ...It may be noted that Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, in his book Krama-sandarbha, has enunciated the purport of this verse. In every millennium, Kṛṣṇa appears in a different form, either as white, red or yellow, but this time He personally appeared in His original, blackish form and, as predicted by Garga Muni, exhibited the power of Nārāyaṇa. Because in this form the Supreme Personality of Godhead exhibits Himself fully, His name is Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the all-attractive.
Also this verse doesn't say anything of four particular yugas. There are many incarnations as the waves of the ocean in different yugas.
Moreover Krishna appears in many other colors in diffferent yugas. In this Dwapara yuga which just passed 5000 years ago Krishna appeared in His original form & color as "blackish cloud". Regarding Lord Sri Ram at some places it is mentioned as parrot color, whereas in Ramcharitmanas it is mentioned as "Nilambujshyam" as Blackish cloud. There are different opinions on that.
Other colors: for White it is mentioned at some places as Lord Kapila & in one conversation Srila Prabhupada says it is Hayagriva.
