After WA was chosen I switched to a flightless gargoyle, with wings too heavy to ever have the Pokemon be able to fly. In addition, I chose to reference the stardust and star piece in the colors (in addition to being the same gemstone color as Diancie). The lithe version was for alternate stats.

One of the ideas I had for the final draft was to have it carrying the pot, however I liked the idea of it holding the pot via the tail much more (and it helped make the silhouette more distinct), which is why I settled on the design I submitted.
