You can I you want. Propose it to me first once you got it written up.

It was honestly never too much of a disqualifying factor to me. Cyrus, for instance, has a good deal of factors that prevent him from entering the trope, but treating his Golbat well isn't exactly one because we KNOW he doesn't do it out of love - he says himself that to him, love and compassion are illusions of the weak, incomplete human heart and that such sentiment is useless emotion. Treating his Golbat kindly would thus be done out of pragmatism rather than love, since this is all about what Golbat feels for it's trainer as opposed to what the trainer feels towards Golbat. If treated well, Golbat/Crobat doesn't give any shits about how bad the person raising it is. It'd have to be the same case with Ein since he also doesn't seem to believe in love or any such emotions, least of all when it comes to Pokemon.

Also, if someone like Ghetsis ever had a Mega Pokemon, there's a high probability it's stolen. The man is a criminal, after all.
