>>27333742I played Sapphire on release and seeing Gardevoir confused me. It was more a feminine alien thing than a Pokemon to me. Didn't think much of it until several years later, maybe midway through high school, when I stumbled across art that was progressively more explicit and found I liked it. I went back and looked up official designs, card art and what not and tried to figure out if all this art had any basis in reality or was just rule 34 at work.
I think GF knows exactly what they're doing, and recent designs have only confirmed it.
