Description Hey everyone, got one last new pic before I resume my Moon/Sun series, and this is something I've been planning for a while.

Vanity's given herself a new look! Now this isn't to say that her old, typical Gardevoir look never existed. In fact, she actively changed her look so it would be like this. How, you may ask? Well if  you're interested I got a little explanation in regards to why I think its possible for Gardevoir (and the rest of its evolution line) to change their look like this.

So I always found it weird how the Ralts line is part of the Amorphous egg group and not the Human-like egg group despite their VERY human-like appearance. This combined with their strong connection to humans, particularly emotional connections to trainers, made me think that the Ralts line evolved a human-like appearance to better fit with them. However, it's not just that. The fact it is in the amorphous egg group, and the elbow-extension that Gallade has shown, makes me think that the Ralts line is capable of limited changes to their body shape, with the red crest/horn being the only body part I imagine being solid. As the Ralts line is likely capable of some form-changing, I imagine that Gardevoir and Gallades would alter their physical appearance to fit their trainer's personal preferences. For this reason I do imagine SOME Gardevoir would boast more human anatomy if their trainers prefer such, and would cause protests in terms of letting trainers have their gardevoirs boast such features.

In regards to Vanity, as she does not have as strong of a link with Dylan, so her new look does not in fact reflect Dylan's personal preferences. She actually decided on her own to change her look, having it suit her more dominatrixy personality. As to why she wanted the change? I've got a few ideas, but I won't say. It may come up in a future story, so who knows.

What do you all think of her new look? Prefer the basic design, or the new look?

Pokemon belongs to Gamefreak.

Vanity belongs to me.

I think the new look suits her well!

I'm glad to see that someone else thought the placement in the Amorphous group was odd. And took advantage of that oddity. A while ago, I wrote a whole scientific (mostly) report of sorts on how I thought their anatomy would work. I recall I had some very... interesting ideas about the crest/horn.

Is this still just a pen? Or is this digitally inked at all? The lines look very clean!

I also like her "Frustrated" look.

Still pen, the only piece I have in my gallery that was digitally inked was not inked by me. Thank you very much though. ^^

I feel sorry for whoever got her THAT frustrated...

TMason In reply to PokeCaptor11 [2016-12-31 23:23:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, but Frustration (the TM) doesn't work very well if the pokemon is friendly with her trainer. And Dylan seems like a stand up guy to his pokemon at least. So i'm not afraid of Vanity's Frustration.

gotta admit, the last thing I expected was a Vanity redesign model sheet, but the surprise was pretty good. I find the small tweeks in her appearance a nice touch, as it suits her personality.

Also, if the whole "amorphous egg group" thing is true, this would make the "fandom" Gardevoirs a realistic thing..

PokeCaptor11 In reply to doc-dust [2016-12-29 20:53:59 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like it, I am quite content with it as well.

That thought did come across my mind when I was working on the theory, though to what degree is hard to say. And of course, there would be protest groups saying that these are indecent Gardevoirs or that the trainers who have Gardevoirs like that are mis-treating them, etc. The world of pokemon aint as flawless as we'd like to imagine it is.

doc-dust In reply to PokeCaptor11 [2017-02-18 05:44:58 +0000 UTC]

Of course, their probably is some natural work-around. Maybe Gardevoirs can only pull off that level of psychic manipulation with a strong, legitimate, bind?

PokeCaptor11 In reply to doc-dust [2017-02-18 08:43:10 +0000 UTC]

It's hard to say, if they are close enough to their trainers that they sense what their trainers enjoy most perhaps, though whether that's due to individual strength or the strength of the bond could be up to individual interpretation.

GhostAuthorZero [2016-12-29 07:09:35 +0000 UTC]

The main differences I can see are longer hair, a visible mouth, and a slit in the front of her "dress." Not that these are bad changes by any stretch of the imagination!

PokeCaptor11 In reply to GhostAuthorZero [2016-12-29 07:15:37 +0000 UTC]

The hair was the main change, but her dress is also a lot tighter, and the slits on the sides are shorter. The slit in front is actually the same, her legs are just more visible as her legs need to go through it when she walks. Still glad you like it.

Risrupio [2016-12-29 06:57:54 +0000 UTC]

Longer hair for a Gardevoir - I like it. XD Vanity should definitely meet with my own half-Gardevoir OC Misaki some day. Seeing them interact would be pretty fun seeing as they're more or less complete opposites.

Risrupio In reply to PokeCaptor11 [2016-12-29 07:07:21 +0000 UTC]

Kinda. XD She's only a half Gardevoir since her father was human so it gave her a more human body. Here she is:- risrupio.deviantart.com/art/Ga…

She's still being developed but she is actually a fan of bondage - she loves to be tied up. She is also usually quite a sweet and shy individual with people she's just met but once she gets to know them a little better she can be a lot more playful and has the typical Gardevoir urge to make people feel happy in any way she can. I'm still thinking of personality quirks for her beyond that though.

PokeCaptor11 In reply to Risrupio [2016-12-29 07:13:12 +0000 UTC]

Aww, she sounds great! Considering she's into bondage, I imagine Vanity would tease her that she could tie her up, but never actually do it.

Risrupio In reply to PokeCaptor11 [2016-12-29 07:28:36 +0000 UTC]

Lol. Misaki could probably handle that. But if Vanity tried to tease her too much, Misaki would probably try and bind her for 'being a meanie.' XD
