    I need to know the best moveset/ev spread for a gallade please.
     
    2 major sets.

    Gallade @ Life Orb
    Jolly
    252 Atk/252 Spd/4 Hp
    -Swords Dance
    -Close Combat
    -Psycho Cut
    -Leaf Blade/Night Slash/Stone Edge

    Gallade @ Choice Scarf
    Adamant
    252 Atk/252 Spd/4 Hp
    -Psycho Cut
    -Leaf Blade
    -Close Combat
    -Stone Edge/X-Sissor/Night Slash/EQ

    some people use razor claw but thats a hax item
     
    Alright thanks, mine happened to be jolly, so I'll go with the first one.
    Question: where do you get a life orb?
     
    um im not sure. but theres no cost to it. i think i found it in a pokeball.
     
    what do you mean by that?
     
    It makes me sad when people try to make Gallade a Medicham copy. =\ Medicham is a sweeper, Gallade is a supporting sweeper. End of story.

    Gallade should be more like:

    Gallade @ Leftovers
    Adamant Nature
    EVs spread in HP, Attack and Speed with the focus on HP and Attack

    - Psycho Cut/Night Slash
    - Close Combat
    - Thunder Wave/Hypnosis/Will-o-Wisp
    - Psycho Cut/Night Slash/Thunder Wave/Hypnosis/Will-o-Wisp

    The stark mountain entrance. Gallade only works as a choice scarfer.
    Yes, because Thunder Wave obviously isn't an option on a 125 base Sp.Defense Pokémon. =\ On the contrary to popular beliefs, Gallade can actually take a couple of hits (provided that they are special and not physical) and thus works fairly well as a supporter.
    Gardevoir is just a special version of Gallade.

    They both need a big speed boost to be useful.
    Let me guess, you're one of those people who thinks Gardevoir should be used as an Alakazam copy? The Gardevoir/Alakazam thing and Gallade/Medicham thing are the same. You just have to use the superior supporting capabilities of Gardevoir and Gallade instead of turning them into bad copies of Alakazam and Medicham. Gallade and Gardevoir can both learn 3 awesome status moves and yet people insist of making them sweep. Why? ._.
     
    is it possible to burn and put an oppenent to sleep at the same time?

    so in that moveset it would be psycho cut, close combat, night slahs, and a status inducer?
     
    What would be awesome SUPPORT Gallade EVs?
     
    Yeah, I've noticed his speed sucks, so where do you get a choice scarf?
     
    They've said it a million times. Maybe thunder Wave or BPing speed would be a better option...
     
    I'd go with
    -Psycho Cut
    -Close Combat
    -Thunder Wave
    -Will-o-Wisp

    That way, if you are facing a physical, you can kill their attack in half, and if you are facing a special that's faster, you can kill their speed. Plus Psycho Cut and Night Slash on the same moveset doesn't cover very much difference, plus Psycho cut gets STAB.
