Build Notes

Gallade runs max Speed with Adamant nature, making it a surprise fast attacker opponents expect to be minimum Speed under Trick Room. Focus Sash guarantees at least one action, and Sharpness boosts all slicing moves, making Helping Hand plus Sacred Sword a reliable OHKO on Archaludon, Leaf Blade into Mega Blastoise, and Psycho Cut into Mega Gengar. This coverage into three of the most common archetypes in the format makes Gallade a hidden threat as both an aggressive lead partner for Farigiraf and a post-Trick Room closer that outspeeds Kingambit.
