I've been wondering what could possibly be done via hypothetical boost to make this one viable in competitive play - but WITHOUT making it into Medicham 2.0
Looking at Gallade's characteristics, it appears that GF deliberately sought to make it pursue a different role and use range than the first Psychic/Fighting, but further developement track past gen4 clearly shows that the dev team merely fiddled with the idea for a moment, gave up on it entirely and threw it into the garbage can - leading to a situation where a Pokemon gets visibly worse with every. single. change in the metagame.
As the game reached a point at which Gallade ceased to exists in competitive play once and for all, I started to wonder if initial setup for it could be fixed and completed in a way that would set Gallade apart from its counterparts.
