    Project SV RU: The Next Best Thing (Week 23: Cyclizar) (Votings Open)

    3 Agility Gallade is how he should be used this gen imho, and Protect is a cool tech vs what little can rk it after setting up (the first impression-ers and emergency defensive teras). I've always been an advocate for jolly agility but I guess RU's speed tiers can allow you to use Adamant for...

    The thing with Gallade is that there are a lot of high priority threats that are both very common and have an advantageous MU vs him, such as pult, skeledirge, band azu, dragonite, gholdengo to name a few. I do believe a Scarf set would be the most splashable one since it doesn't need much...

    I see Gallade has somehow snuck into another tier as well, albeit as a niche option. Very nice. Which does tickle my curiosity: what's Gallade's niche / best set in current BSS? Agility / SD strike me as unhortodox choices here despite their success in other unofficial metas due to the...

    By the looks of it, each mon has 3 animations during the Team Star Training sessions: one is a generic attack animation, while the other two seem to happen during these sessions only (which, as you rightfully said, makes little sense; why would they model custom animations for every single mon...

    Gallade

    For the Agility + 3 attacks set, what nature do you all think is most beneficial? I've crunched down a few numbers and while Jolly does indeed seem best in a general case considering it makes Gallade less reliant on setup to break some legs (while also outspeeding scarf gengar), LO Adamant can...

    Bombirdier

    Unless I'm mistaken and/or missing something, wouldn't Big Pecks be the preferred ability on any and all sets that don't make use of Rock STABs? Night Daze is the only commonly used move that lowers accuracy and Big Pecks allows Bombirdier to not suffer from Defense drops from resisted Crunch or...

    Well, that's one less thing we need to SR for. Actually, the 4 perils are the only things that "require" SRing in this game, no? Especially considering that paradoxes are dime a dozen and you only really need to find one with a good nature / a 30-31 IV in any stat bar speed to save up on mints...

    Pokémon Gallade

    Agreed, although my idea is more that Gallade can choose what setup move to use depending on the scenario (SD vs slower teams or to wallbreak, Agility vs faster teams and/or to lategame sweep), while of course only really setting up vs things that it forces out or are naturally passive...

    Pokémon Gallade

    I honestly think Agility + 3 attacks or Double Dance Gallade will be the gold standard for him once a lower tier is created. The former pretty much follows the footsteps of Metagross and Lucario of old but trades a worse defensive type and bulk for much higher power than both of them, on top of...

    Looks pretty insane, it has the movepool of Gallade + Gardevoir and the stats to do whatever it wants. It can go full physical, full special or mixed and not suffer from low stats or move BP (spirit break is better than psycho cut so yeah LMAO), it has boosting moves for both offensive spectrums...

    Would it be possible to check how big of a boost Sharpness provides? For what is worth, there's only one Pokemon that gets the ability naturally without HAs, that mon being Gallade.

    All Buffs and Nerfs in Pokemon Scarlet/Violet

    Gallade has also gained Agility, Shadow Claw and Icy Wind from TMs. The former 2 are the most relevant additions as it can now perform agility+3 attacks or double dance sets and also add Ghost coverage if you really want, while the latter is a more doubles/ VGC centric move as it gives Gallade...

    Maybe you could split it into 2 files, even if that's not exactely an elegant solution.

    Do we know how much does Sharpness boost the power of cutting moves?

    I am not going to sugarcoat my reaction to this so I'm just going to sum it up by quoting our wonderful DHR-107 "Gladio is having a stroke over a Gallade buff" And yes, I am. It's amazing.

    It's supposed to be a fusion between the two, taking even elements from each. From Gallade it has: His entire lower body (notice the lines on its feet and the overall bulkier appearance compared to gardevoir's, plus the obvious hips) The cape (shape of it) The blades (the motif at least) The...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    In defense of Gallade, the hair shape and overall green pigment is like Gardevoir's, but the side spikes (and therefore the white face itself) are clearly Gallade's as there are two per side and they are longer and sharper, as opposed to Gardevoir's frillier and 3-per-side ones. So it's a fusion...

    Volt-Ikazuchi thank you for summoning me THE GOOD, COMPETITIVELY VIABLE GALLADE FORME WITH NO ITEM RESTRICTION IS REEEAAAAAL! I am so glad it's actually good at the price of sharing things with garde. I wonder what quark drive does. Now we hope something good trickled down to regular Gallade as well

    So he also lost a move, for no reason whatsoever. Great, fantastic even. More fuel to the fire. When will this agony end? Anyway, lots of good additions to movesets, and the new mons look very interesting. Basculegion-F might be the go-to choice since their movepool is pretty barren and it's...
