Sure, he looks hideous but he's actually a real gentleman once you get to know him.

A kind-hearted demon named Pigmalion has appeared in San Lorenzo. Banished by his demon family for not being evil, Puss decides to try and help him reunite with his family by teaching Pigmalion to be evil.
Tropes:
- Call-Back: When just straight up teaching Pigmalion to be evil doesn't seem to be working, Puss decides to take drastic measures and gives Pigmalion the Scimitar, retrieving it from the desert it was last left in.
- Didn't Think This Through: Even though Dulcinea warned him, once Puss is successful in making Pigmalion evil, an evil demon turns out to be a lot of trouble.
- Meaningful Name: "Pigmalion" is derived from him being part Pig, part Maggot, part Lion but is also a play on Pygmalion.
- Mix-and-Match Critters: Pigmalion is a pig-maggot-lion. He explains all demons are like this; coming up with new animals is hard, after all.
- Pygmalion Plot
- Pygmalion Snapback: Once Pigmalion finally turns evil, he realizes he doesn't actually want to be evil and decides to accept himself for who he is.
- Villain Decay: Pigmalion manages to break free and become resistant to the Scimitar's corruption. The causes it to have a bit of a crisis as it failed to corrupt a demon; the most inherently evil thing there is.
- What the Hell, Hero?: Dulcinea is so incredulous that Puss would give a demon the Scimitar, she has to step away for a bit.
