>>17715416I heard some clown spout off his headcanon once that gardevoir are pretty much normal as far as their bodies go, but that since their cells and shit are held togetether by latent psychic energy (a whole other long story, just go with it for now) that they can actually "cannibalize" parts of their bodies whose function they could replicate with less energy than they need to maintain the part. This can lead, in extreme cases, to to individuals that are little more than things of papery skin floating around with a maelstrom of psychic power flowing around inside, hence their impressive special stats but completely abysmal health and defense stats
