Cuz Malo is better ngl. I personally didn't like Gardevoir character from the start for two reasons: stuck in wall position and group, not a fan of these. Maybe patreon guys had the same thought and devs decided to switch to Malo instead

Yea, I don't mind Gardevoir being in the game either, but totally didn't like the way devs wanted to implement her. These 2 used fetishes which i mentioned earlier are total trash (my only opinion), that's why i didn't like that 1st teaser and prefer Malo, obviously. And actually damn, she's looking good even in colourless preview
