>>21419308>sure, by ten points. i mean, one on one gallade wins, sure. Do you know how much shit is inbetween 100 and 110 base speed?
Gallade is outspeeding Garchomp, Landorus-I, Mega Pinsir (you take a +0 Quick Attack by the way,) Keldeo, Terrakion, and you speed tie with Lati@s and Gengar. This isn't everything between base 100 and 110, this is a very good handful of very prominent and commonly used pokemon. Oh, and you don't risk speed ties with base 100, which is a lot of stuff.
And while Medicham hits harder at +0, very little is able to tank +2 Gallade
>who cares252 SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Landorus Earth Power vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Gallade: 203-239 (73 - 85.9%)
252 SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Landorus Earth Power vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Mega Medicham: 261-308 (100 - 118%)
That's probably one of dozens of OHKOs on Cham that Gallade avoids.
>leaf blade and night slash? such great coverage m8. i'll give you will o' wisp but most gallade sets won't even use it anyway.How about Knock Off and Swords Dance AKA two moves that Medicham would be extremely broken with? Or Taunt, which is also REALLY good?
