>>14977502I don't remember the exact wording and source of this bit of smogonfaggotry, but the actual performance of both make their effectivenesses against each other on par, at least.
Bisharp has a good chance of defeating Gallade with one hit, Gallade has the opposite assured - so the battle between both isn't that much one sided as one might think.
An unrelated question: why do japs love to put both along as token rivals/partners? Is there some kind of parallel/inspiration thing going through?
