==Game info==
 
Gallade first appeared in the [[Generation IV]] games as the male counterpart of [[Gardevoir]]. Gallade was likely created to be a counterpart since a male [[Kirlia]] could evolve into the very feminine [[Gardevoir]], which gave some confusion. However, since a male Kirlia can only be evolved into a Gallade by use of a [[Evolution Stones|Dawn Stone]], a male Kirlia can still evolve into a Gardevoir at level 30.
