#and now i shall finally officially f/o a gengar

[lovesick-syrup-selfships]

I decided to make an s/I to selfship with Gengar cause I'm dumb like that so here, take Ruinatine, a fake Love-type Evolution for Gardevoir that i'll be using as a self-insert. I plan on making a colored version soon I promise, but for reference the color scheme is mainly red, black, and white.

How love-type Pokemon work is explained on the page, but for a more in-depth explanation: Love type pokemon are only obtained when a pokemon experiences pure love and devotion or pure heartache and despair, in which the pokemon will evolve due to the intense emotions into a love type pokemon, meaning one pokemon could have multiple different love type evolutions. When a Love type pokemone evolves, it can sometimes completely change the pokemons types, for example, while a Gardivior is a Psychic/Fairy type, their heartache evolution, Ruinatine, is a Ghost/Love type, hense why Ruinatine is known as not only as the Cold-Embrace Pokemon, but also as the Dead Bride pokemon.

However, just cause a Gardevior evolves into a Ruinatine, that does not mean the Gardevior has gone through an irreparable heartbreak

Maybe, the Gardevior evolved into Ruinatine because they hadbecome smitten for a ghost-type pokemon, and thus loveed their partner so much that they evolved into a ghost-type pokemon just to match them. As we see here, that is exactly what happened to my s/i <3
