>>46152483Gallade is one of the laziest ideas in the world.
Gardevoir is already based off a combination of Knight and Dancer. And the combination of heavy focus on psychic powers and a robe always gave the impression to me of being a magic-wielding knight. A Spellsword or a Jedi. It’s unique and interesting.
And here comes this completely conventional sword-swinger which, to add insult to injury, is male only for no reason I can think of. Even real knights weren’t strictly male. It’s a painfully predictable, arbitrarily limited split evolution that doesn’t add anything worth adding to the Ralts line.
Gallade has always been and will always be unnecessary Pokedex filler pandering to Gardevoir’s explosive fandom. Every list of the “laziest” Pokemon concepts fails utterly if it does not include Gallade.
Maybe i should pick up a gallade...
