Crests shapes can indeed be inherited, although they seem to have a high probability of mutations. So if a child has a notably different crest shape from their parent or even both parents, that does not necessarily mean any trouble.

As for dominant and recessive traits, the more standard shapes (Standard, Blunt and Fin alongside the others specifically listed in the other sections) seem to be more dominant, consdiering how much more common they are than the others.

Possibly. I have no idea what you're referring to in the latter part though. My pokemon knowledge is very limited.

That's a very cool explanation for opening up more possibilities for cool designs that still fit with the canon.

Standard, Blunt, Oval, Fin, and Round are closely related types, so that would fit decently well. There are also a few other groups that are related more closely with each other than with the rest. Possibly as a result of different Gardevoir populations and/or genetic mutations.
