Possible. SInce it's the only Fairy that is not also weak to Fighting at the moment. Well, the Dark weakness can make it useless against Hydreigon.

But we should wait. If Blissey is going to get Fairy type (lol, Marill got it) then every other defensive Fairies will be useless.

Fairy-type is not an instant ticket to OU

Well it will be at the beginning when everyone jumps at the OMG NEW-TYPE bandwagon.

But once things settle down, Fairy-type won't be an instant ticket to OU

She was OU on RSE, another victim of the split.

Nah, he wasn't. And it's"he" since Gardevoire can also be male.

Gardevoir was BL in R/S/E.

However, I agree that it might see OU with a new type.

Gardevoir's problem isn't that it's bad. It's not bad at all. It's just outclassed offensively (Alakazam) and defensively (Insert generic OU special wall) as a Psychic type.

However, with a new, unique(?) typing, a fucking MASSIVE movepool, and decent stats in both special attack and defense, I can see some niches being filled.

Also it's 2qt.

Clearly the correct term is Zhe or Xe.

Oh golly! I already see it shaping up like this:
>Male Gardevoir retconned out of existence

>Gardevoir gender changed upon transfer

>Gallade as the single most vehemently hated and despised pokemon in the entire history of franchise.

Sort of true.

Most people evolve their male Kirlias into the stronger Gallade, however.

So yeah, the majority of Gardevoirs are female.

Please don't go into THAT territory.

It almost invariably ends up in a mild-to-strong shitstorm that will leave the fandom a little bit worse.

I don't think it'll be such a big shitstorm. Sure, there will be a couple of vocal haters, but whatever.

Just like Dragon a typing instantly launched Druddigon to OU

Right guys?

Seriously though, when has /vp/ ever put so much stock into typing? its stats will always be shit and it will need ALOT of work to its movepool to even be useable

I shiggy.
And I don't even think Gardy will get bumped to OU, I'm betting on UU and maybe a few OU niches.
