Gallade for Brawl

[xianfeng]

A master of courtesy and swordsmanship, it fights using extending swords on its elbows.

Gallade

In the Generation IV of pokemon or Diamond and Pearl, Generation III's Kirila was given an alternate evolution, now Male Kirilas instead of evolving into the overly feminine Gardevoir could evolve into the more maculine Gallade. Gallade is a Psychic/Fighting pokemon and is more suited for combat than his female equivalant.
Gallade has however yet to make a major appearance even in a spinoff game like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon as his female equivilant but he did make a minor cameo in the tenth movie (which is all about Gardevoir has done too).

Moveset​

B - Psycho Cut - Gallade springs forth two psychic beams which form knife like shapes and cut forth at foes, they land several hits but leave Gallade vulnerable whilst he is attacking his foe. This can do about 9-10% damage if the foe stays trapped for the full second or two.
B > - Leaf Blade - Gallade's arms begin to shine green and he lunges towards his foe and starts slashing at his foes with his arms, this is similar to Psycho Cut but leaves will also come from this and fling backwards doing minor damage to foes behind as well as knocking them back a bit. The foe infront of you that you are attacking this will do about 3-4% damage per hit.
B ^ - Night Slash - Gallade lunges upwards and extends his arms in another slashing manor, this time when it hits it's foe it does a dark shadowy effect, this move automatically homes in on the nearest foe to attack them. It would do about 4-5% damage.
B v - Protect -Gallade holds his arms out in front of himself like a sheild, this protects him from incoming attacks and items (except for exploding items) but when he is hit while using this move he is knocked back.

Final Smash - Double Team - Gallade splits up into many forms and uses the moves Night Slash, Leaf Blade, Psycho Cut, Confusion, Slash, Close Combat and False swipe. These all have the AI of a level 6 computer and will attack your foes. During this time Gallade also glows and his strength is doubled and he has the effect of the move Protect on the whole time (without the knockback thing)

Additional notes​

Moveset is crap I know blah blah blah. I know this kind of goes against my own little rules but I've had this idea in my head for ages now and I just wanted to get it out.

 

[smashbot226]

Hmm...

No thx. I could see him as the new Hitmonlee/Scizor tho.

 

[skullkidd]

Unfortunately, there is no way a no name Pokemon like this is going to get into Brawl, even if they would be perfect.

 

[xianfeng]

I know, which is why Psyduck is still my favourite But out of all the fourth gen pokemon this guy is my favourite, I hate Lucario and I really hate Gardevoir.

 

[Chickenboy666]

nice idea, but I agree with smashbot226, he would be better (and more possible) as a pokeball

 

[Brawlman]

By the way...You is wrong about Gardevoir's anime appearences. She was a side character in one, and the object of a rescue in another.

And you should put more reasoning into your first posts. A moveset does not show that a character can be in Brawl.

 

[MysticKenji]

Why is it that most of the awesome pokemon have no chance?

 

[xianfeng]

Because the Japanese prefer Cute to Kick ***

I only skimmed through her stuff on Bulbapedia. I know in one episode that little snot nosed kid with no pokemon and no friends befriended a ralts and then he returned it to it's mother a Gardevoir at the end and in the other time some chick owned a Kirila which evolved into a Gardevoir at the end.

 

[Cinder]

OMG, I love Gallade...but still, I'm going for Lucario...but if Lucario doesn't get in, I'm all for Gallade

 

[Princess Diana]

I'd rather have Gardevoir in that Gallade... but i'd rather have gallade in than lucario so go gallade

 

[Hejiru]

As AWESOME as Gallade would be, I don't see him making it in. But I'd pick Lucario over Gallade any day.

 

[smashbot226]

I'd love to see such Pokes as Gallade, tho...

WHY JIGGLYPUFF, WHY?!?

 

[xianfeng]

I'd rather have Gardevoir in that Gallade... but i'd rather have gallade in than lucario so go gallade

Why Gardevoir? She isn't suited for fighting, unless she was like primarly and only psychic in her moves.

 

[Brawlman]

Why Gardevoir? She isn't suited for fighting, unless she was like primarly and only psychic in her moves.

Is a racer suited for fighting? Is a space pilot suited for fighting? Is a 2-D figure suited for fighting? Is a...*Ramble*

What I'm saying is....That in Brawl, ANYONE is suited for fighting.

 

[xianfeng]

I suppose but still Gardevoir seems more like a caring sweet pokemon that hates combat. But Smash doesn't need to make sense.

When it comes down to it who do you think is a better fighter though Gardevoir or Gallade?

 

[LightLink17]

Gardevoir is much cooler and "deserving" of a spot.

Both. The Smash series has opened my mind to any and all possibities.

 

[LightLink17]

Gardevoir dances. Granted, swords and psi sure is cool, but not as cool as dancing and psi.

 

[xianfeng]

Gardevoir isn't cooler, she's a sensitive caring woman who only wants to help and can't hate anybody (In PMD at least), Gallade is kick *** and lives for fighting!
As for whos more deserving that's really debatable. I would say that neither is more deserving than the other because neither has done anything important in the series, but Gallade is half fighting type so I think that would make him more suited, but it's all personal opinion.

Being sensitive and caring is cooler. Especially with her super awesome psychic attacks and dancing.

I did put it in quotes for a reason. But really, Gardevoir seems more popular at the moment, and had her little side-things like pokemon mystery dungeon and such.

I suppose... I would love both of them to be in and Psyduck and Meowth too... I like too many pokemon

Being sensitive and caring aint cool, or at least aint no way to get the upper hand in a battle! Swords dance can also be used by Gallade.

Gallade Dances, uses psi and has swords for arms, what's cooler than that?

 

[LightLink17]

Being sensitive and caring aint cool...

Sure it is.

...or at least aint no way to get the upper hand in a battle!

It is for Gardy. She's more powerful that way.

Swords dance can also be used by Gallade.

But dancing without swords is cooler as fighting. It looks prettier and more innocent.

Gallade Dances, uses psi and has swords for arms, what's cooler than that?

Feminine body, not-freaky hips, a dress, and a prettier head.

 

[xianfeng]

Sure it is.

Maybe to you. Not in something that's supposed to be a fighter for me.

It is for Gardy. She's more powerful that way.

Lets put Gardevoir in a fight with Gallade, Gallade will win

Pokemon are made to fight not dance, it's their job to fight.

Feminine body, not-freaky hips, a dress, and a prettier head.

But she's an animal.

 

[Brawlman]

Technically....Certain Pokemon aren't "animals."

Example:

Luxray- It's based off of a Lion. So he could be classified as an "Animal"

Drifloon- It's based off of a balloon. So it would be an...."It"


But it you want it simply....Pokemon are Pokemon.

In their world they are the equivalant of animals though.

 

[Brawlman]

Really now? In the Pokemon world, I think of Pokemon in a few ways:

Wild animals
A community (Seriously, some pokemon act like a community....I think....This one can be ignored. )
Pets
Partners
Fighting Machines (Although...That is frowned apon)

Honestly...Can you imagine a Gardevoir or Gallade as a "Pet" or "Wild Animal"?

 

[xianfeng]

No but some like Meowth, Glameow, Skitty, Delcatty, Poochyena, Growlithe, Eevee etc. etc. as pets. I don't think that any of the pokemon would breed with humans though, or humans would find pokemon attractive. I mean real humans don't find chimps attractive so why would those humans find their worlds animal equivalants (just a lot smarter with magic powers) attractive?

 

[LightLink17]

It's never explained well. For instance, do they eat pokemon? If Pokemon were truly just animals they would have to.

Maybe to you. Not in something that's supposed to be a fighter for me.

Not all pokemon are supposed to be amazing fighters. Gardevoir is though (an amazing fighter). She has super psychic powers and dancing awesomeness. Mostly psychic powers though.

I think you underestimate Gardevoir's power, and overestimate Gallade's. In reality, the two are comparable, probably Gardevoir being more powerful slightly.

Lets put Gardevoir in a fight with Gallade, Gallade will win

It depends on which one is trained better and has a higher level.

Pokemon are made to fight not dance, it's their job to fight.

Pokemon don't have a "job." Does Team Rocket's Meowth fight? If it does, it loses. It's not "made" to fight. A Gardevoir, despite its power, could be made to be in Pokemon shows, or as a companion, or be bred. So could a Gallade. Any Pokemon could.

.............You haven't been on the internet long enough.

I've mistakenly seen some disturbing things involving Pokemon in my lifetime...'Cpecially with the Ralts family.......OH GOD FLASHBACKS!!!

 

[LightLink17]

Gardevoir is humanoid and seems to be made to be attractive. Kirlia is like a loli Gardevoir so of course stuff would exist with her too.

And some people like guys so...

Yeah, internet has lots of stuff.

 

[xianfeng]

Actually I believe in one of the mangas or something they revealed that pokemon were once eaten.

Dancing is useless.

I think you underestimate Gardevoir's power, and overestimate Gallade's. In reality, the two are comparable, probably Gardevoir being more powerful slightly.

Gardevoir
HP: 68
Attack: 65
Defense: 65
SpAtk: 125
SpDef: 115
Speed: 80

Gallade
HP: 68
Attack: 125
Defense: 65
SpAtk: 65
SpDef: 115
Speed: 80

They are pretty even but Gallade gets more attacking moves which are more useful than stat changing moves.

Both level 55.

In the original games a pokemon's only duty was to fight. And that is the main duty of a pokemon, to protect it's trainer and battle other pokemon. That is the main focus of the games and the show.

Ah? That's funny, I could have sworn most of the overused movesets I've seen on Gallade involved Swordsdance.

 

[xianfeng]

I know, I always have all my pokemon with attacking moves though. I'm all out offensive and I barely ever use items I also level up really high!

 

[xianfeng]

Now that Gardevoir has been deconfirmed this makes me feel better about Gallade's chances.

 

[MysticKenji]

Standard Gallade uses SD

Good for you.

All metagame pokemon are LV100

And actually Gallade does have an advantage. Super-effective Night Slash hurts...especially with Gard's lacklsuter defense.

 

[Princess Diana]

>_>;

Gardevoir and Gallade have the same stats except that their attack and special attack are swapped... Gallade can learn every move Gardevoir can except for Wish... Gallade learns alot more useful moves than Gardevoir but he has a crappy ability and gardevoir has a good one. Gardevoir has a recovery move gallade doesn't. Gallade can learn a 2x stat up move and gardevoir can't... In the end they're both Border Line pokemon in the tier list so whatever

 

[xianfeng]

Who cares about tier I go by what looks cool my team is Infernape, Gallade, Gardevoir, Palkia, Leafeon and Lucario. My team owns.

 

[Shuma]

Ok... so Gardevoir/Deoxis/Munchlax where more popular, why does Gallade stand a chance?

That's a horrible team... >_>;

 

[xianfeng]

Nah they all look cool so I like it.
