Gallade (Japanese: エルレイド Erlade) is a Psychic/Fighting-type Pokémon.
Gallade comes with the ability Steadfast, which increases Gallade's speed by 1.5 when it flinches.
Gallade begins its evolutionary chain as Ralts, then evolves into Kirlia at Lv.20. If the Kirlia is male, a Dawn Stone can be used on it to evolve it into Gallade. If a Dawn Stone is not used and evolution is not canceled, the Kirlia will evolve into Gardevoir naturally at Lv.30. It is one of two Pokémon that the byproduct of evolution with a Dawn Stone, the other being Froslass.
Biology
Physiology
The mini-skirt that Gallade had as a Kirlia has disappeared, though its body is hourglass-shaped and its lower torso almost resembles a kilt. Gallade has white legs that are wider than its counterpart, Gardevoir's. Like its Gardevoir, it also has a red horn protruding from its chest and another red horn sticking out of its back, but unlike Gardevoir these are smaller and sharper. Unlike Gardevoir, however, Gallade's arms have blade-like protrusions at the elbows, and its head is shaped somewhat like a gladiator's helmet.
Gender differences
Gallade is male-only, evolving from a male Kirlia when exposed to the Dawn Stone. However, a Kirlia of either gender can evolve into a Gardevoir at level 30.
Special abilities
Gallade, thanks to its arm blades, can learn a variety of sword-like attacks in several types. These include Leaf Blade, Night Slash, and its trademark move, Psycho Cut.
Behavior
Gallade are masters of courtesy and swordsmanship.

Trivia
Origin
- Gallade may be based on of a Roman gladiator.
- Gallade was possibly introduced as a solution, or nod, to the complaints that a clearly feminine Pokémon such as Gardevoir could also be male. Male Gardevoir, however, are still possible and there remain other Pokémon of a specific gender-based design to still be available in both Genders, such as Machoke.
Name origin
Gallade may be a combination of gladiator/gallant/blade/lad.
Erlade might be a combination of elbow and blade, referring to the sword-like appendages on its arms.
