Hello,
I have a run with the xtc, trr and edr files available. I would like to
color a snapshot of my system with respect to rmsd or potential energy
of my particles. How can I extract the potential energy, rmsd or any
other needed data from the files available? Is there a specific GROMACS
command that I can use?

Probably a combination of different analysis tools and probably your own scripting would be required. RMSD per atom can be be plotted with g_rmsf -od, but the output is an .xvg file, so you will have to find some way to transfer these data into a coordinate file (B-factor field in a .pdb file, for example). Potential energy per particle is a relatively meaningless quantity, since the PE is not entirely described by a single particle; it is dependent upon the surrounding system, as well. This sort of thing has been discussed a number of times (for example, users wanting the potential energy of just the protein, excluding solvent, etc).
