Gardevoir (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Gardevoir appears to be based on a feminine {{wp|ballet dancer}}, particularly a {{wp|principal dancer}} due to its apparent maturity, as well as the concept of {{wp|empathy}}. The long, white frills surrounding its body resemble a floor-length {{wp|dress}}, and its thin, pointed legs make it appear as if it is standing {{wp|pointe technique|en pointe}} and wearing white {{wp|tights}}. Its hair appears to be styled into a {{wp|bob cut}}, and the short spikes behind its eyes resemble a {{wp|masquerade ball|masquerade}} mask. Its red horns resemble half of a {{wp|heart shape|heart}} and seem to pierce its chest, implying that its ability to sense emotions is even stronger than its pre-evolutions since the horns are connected directly to its actual {{wp|heart}}.

Its protective nature over its [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainer]] and {{t|Fairy}} type suggest that it is also inspired by {{wp|guardian angel}}s, and its white, flowing body is reminiscent of {{wp|ghost}}s or {{wp|spirit}}s such as a {{wp|White Lady}}. Its large head, minimal facial features, and frail physique are similar to ''anesama ningyō'', a style of traditional {{wp|Japanese doll|Japanese paper doll}}.  

Mega Gardevoir appears to be based on a {{wp|ballroom dance}}r wearing a large {{wp|ball gown}} and {{wp|evening glove}}s.
