Lore
When Cindlo evolves, it loses its Fairy typing and becomes purely Fire-type — symbolizing the transition from innocent affection to mature, enduring compassion.
Hearthare embodies the steadfast warmth that persists even without praise or love — the flame that gives comfort simply because it must.
Legends describe Hearthare as protectors of homes and travelers, guiding lost souls through the cold. They are said to appear at dawn after long storms, leaving behind faint warmth in the air as proof of their guardianship.
This evolution represents emotional growth: Cindlo seeks to receive warmth; Hearthare learns to give it selflessly.

Hearthare’s flames no longer flicker playfully, but burn with enduring warmth. It guards homes and keeps the cold at bay through the longest nights.
It is said that if you wake to a calm warmth after a bitter storm, a Hearthare has watched over you.
HEARTHFIRE MYTH (Shared Line Lore)
Long ago, before people could create fire, the world was cold and silent. When the first family gathered to tell stories in the dark, their shared warmth created the First Hearthfire, a flame born from kindness.
From that glow, the first Cindlo appeared — tiny flickers of emotion given form.
They gathered around families and travelers, keeping the spark of connection alive wherever they went. Over centuries, these little flames grew wiser, learning to burn on their own. Those who did became Hearthare — guardians of warmth who protect the bonds that gave them life.
It is said that every time a fire burns peacefully, a Cindlo’s spirit dances in its light, and when a fire stays alive through a storm, a Hearthare stands watch nearby.
Cultural and Ecological Lore
Rural families leave soot or cinders by hearths to attract Cindlo, hoping for peaceful nights and good dreams.
Travelers carve Hearthare symbols into lanterns or signs to ensure warmth on long journeys.
Cindlo sightings in cities are rare but cherished — small flickers near heaters or candles are considered good omens.
Winter festivals light fires at crossroads to “call the Hearthare,” symbolically bringing warmth and kindness to the season.
Unlike other Fire-types, Cindlo and Hearthare are docile — other flame Pokémon are instinctively drawn to their warmth.
