Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I don't really have any good replays showing off Gallade because I never really save replays, but here's the team I was using!
SV - CB Gallade (pokepast.es)
Team kinda gets 6-0'd by bundle, but like I said this was a couple days ago and I wasn't seeing it as much. I've since replaced TTar with...
