				Pokédex Data: 
				It will try to guard its 
				trusted Trainer with its life. It has the ability to see the 
				future.   I’m 
				sorry about these delays guys and girls. I’ve been traveling and 
				a little bit busier than usual. 
				 I’m still looking for TRU Darkrai. If you are reading 
				this and feel like helping me out feel free to e-mail me. I’ll 
				trade you well for it. Same goes for Gamestop Deoxys. Thanks =)   We will 
				start comparing alternate evolutions this week. Kirlia has two 
				very different evolutions. The first one is Gardevoir, a somehow 
				underestimated Pokémon. Its defense and speed are its worst 
				weaknesses, but its special stats are great. I can handle a 
				couple special hits and it is a good Pokémon for all kinds of 
				trainers, as it is used easily on both competitive and casual 
				play.   The 
				movesets for today are…   
				
				Special Sweeper.Gardevoir@Wise 
				glasses.
 Nature: Modest (+ Special attack, - Attack).
 EV’s: 252 Special attack / 252 Special defense / 6 HP.
 - Calm mind
 - Psychic
 - Shadow ball
 - Focus blast / Thunderbolt / HP bug
 
				
				  
				
				Use calm mind whenever you can, and sweep the rest of the time, 
				pretty easy set. Both abilities work well. 
				
				  
				
				Annoyer.Gardevoir@Leftovers.
 Nature: Calm (+ Special defense, - Attack).
 EV’s: 252 Special defense / 129 Defense / 129 HP.
 - Taunt
 - Psychic
 - Toxic / Will-o-wisp
 - Attract / Thunderbolt
   This is 
				a pretty rare set but the surprise factor is always good. 
				Suggested for trainers with some experience and patience.   Mean 
				look is another good move for anti-tank purposes, but I haven’t 
				seen one of these in a while so I think two movesets are enough 
				for Gardevoir.   
				Pros. 
				Excellent special stats give you some confidence to sweep for a 
				couple turns, but Alakazam is still a lot better than Gardevoir, 
				but it is very good in double battles.   
				Counters. Fast 
				physical sweepers will cause great damage. Shadow claw and 
				crunch are usually fatal for Gardevoir. Weavile, Heracross or 
				Tyranitar are pretty good against Gardevoir.   
				Bottom line. Next 
				one is Gallade, stay tuned guys and girls…   Rating: 3.3/5   Hope 
				you enjoyed. Reeve.
