Why male Gardevoir? Well... why FEMALE Gardevoir?
Ok... wrong come back, but still...
All right, I'll say it. If I'm not mistaken, the majority of male trainers have a female Gardevoir in their team because it resembles an elegant lady in a ball gown, am I right?
Well, I'd never notticed that untill my friend (who has a female Gardevoir in his team) told me.
That's not the reason for me to have a Gardevoir, though. The first Pokemon game I ever played was Pokemon Pinball, in which I read that Gardevoirs create strong bonds with their trainers and can predict if bad things will happen to them and will even risk their lives for them. Being a female trainer, obviously, I needed a MALE one to justify the love, right?
Like I said before, I never notticed how female they looked (which is strange, I know) untill I was told.
Still, I'm quite aware that these reasons don't back me up.
