Why doesn't Gallade get shilled as much?
>>
it gets shilled more than it should relative to its popularity. It's not that popular because its an ugly design. and it gets shilled in order to make gardevoir seem more like a waifumon by contrast. aall gallaade shilling is quasi-gardevoir shilling.
>>
the cape turned it into a goofymon. downgrade from base gallade

I was honestly surprised how beloved this thing seemed to be when it was first revealed. I feel the same way about Mega Froslass now, although I get Froslass’ appeal more than Mega Gallade
>>
>>58520143
I just cant the tutu.
Its like lucarios shorts but worse because i cant figure out his skeleton.
>>
If it were released the same generation as Gardewhore did instead of 1 gen later, I wonder which would've been more popular
>>
>>58520143
First impressions are everything, and M-Gallade while not a bad mega by any means, it was and it's still so average you simple had and still haven't no reason to use it whatsoever. Mega Medicham existence who hit way harder without set-up and compensated it's lower speed with nuclear priority was already a better pick, Lucario and Lopunny were better fighting megas and Metagross and said Medicham were better physical psychic megas, it wasn't helped by that shitty Inner Focus who made it a offensive M-Kang check but no one would pick M-Gallade just for Kang, especially when you could pick Zard for sun, Mance and Gard for boosted spread moves and the former being able to pack phys moves as well, Kang who still hit very hard since it was the not nerfed PB ability. It's a popular mega design wise, but it's so average most people don't even bother with it, especially now with even more new physical megas for fighting and psychic coming along as well, but who knows perhaps the new boosted Inner Focus who blocks intimidate or ability change to something like sharpness like it's normal form could save it.

if gallade was released in the same gen as gardevoir then it would have at least had a better design
>>
>>58520688
If Gallade were also introduced in gen 3 with Gardevoir, then maybe Gardevoir might have been a Female only species. Or maybe also just be able to be both Gender like Gardevoir?
>>
>>58522206
I feel like GF somehow didn't realize how feminine Gardevoir looked when they designed it. They even called it "sir knight", like it's meant to even be masculine.
And Gallade comes across like GF's attempt to get the response they originally wanted for Gardevoir. With Gardevoir being relegated to the girl role by default because Gallade already had the boy role.
If GF had the foresight to think Gallade even needed to exist in the first place, they would've just designed Gardevoir differently.
>>
>>58523124
not necessarily masculine. they likely imagined the name as gender neutral and failed to realize that the title sir is male-only as most japanese people don't.
>>
Gallade was created because GameFreak became aware of people waifuing Gardevoir, but they mistakenly believed that people wanted to self-insert as a pokemon.
>>
gallade and gardevoir still have notabbly different personalities. Gallade isn't quite just a doover of gardevoir's original intention. All of gallade's dex entries emphasize its martial prowess as opposed to gardevoir's which foxus on its devotion and proctiveness. gallade is characterized more as a noble traveling duelist. it wants to go aroudn proving itself against other strong fighters and protecting trainers is just incidental.
>>
>>58520143
Gallade isnt for gooning

Gamefreak thinks gooner fan art = well loved
>>
GameFreak has been hellbent on catering to trannies for years, and a more macho alternative to a male Gardevoir is simply too problematic.
>>
Gardevoir carries Gallade so hard. Otherwise give him a palatte swap and he's just like all of those other edgymons.
>>
>>58520143
I like Gallade more than Gardevoir

Using or even just seeing Gardevoir feels like she is a tumblr furry gooner OC sona
not a real Pokemon at this point just a gooner furry pornstar, prostitution whore.

while Gallade is still Wholesome

They need to fix this god forsaken shitty evo line first.

Did Mega Gallade get Sharpness?
>>
>>58525042
nah that's bad, don't mess with kirlia's design
>>
he looks fucking stupid
>>
>>58525316
I’m sure you’d see people talking about it if it did
>>
>>58520654
The tutu looking like a diaper is what really kills the design for me.
>>
>>58526739
Girl only kirlia will still exists tho
>>
>>58520177
it looks incomplete without the cape
