Answer 1

• In XY, Gardevoir can Mega Evolve, but Gallade can't.

• Gardevoir has Fairy typing, and Gallade is Fighting.

• Gardevoir has high SpA, Gallade has high Atk. Rest of the stats are same.

• Gardevoir can be of both Genders, but Gallade is only Male.

• Gardevoir can learn those moves with higher Base Power than Gallade can. (Eg. Psycho Cut / Zen Headbutt < Psychic) (except Close Combat)

• Gardevoir is useful for Korrina, Drasna, Diantha's some 'mons.

• Gallade is useful for Wulfric (Charizard and Aegislash could handle), Wikstrom (Charizard, Torterra and Garchomp), Diantha's some 'mons.

Overall, I'd say you to choose Gardevoir.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

To me it really depends. What type do you need, and do you need a physical attacker or a special attacker. If you need fighting type physical, gallade works best. If you need fairy type special, gardevoir would work. If you need a special attacking fighting type, teach gardevoir focus blast. Need a physical attacking fairy? Slap an Azumarill on your team(Huge power only), or a mega mawile(Because the only fairy's to go above murkrow are diancie, xerneas, and mega mawile).

Answer 3

I would say gardevoir. Here are its pro's :
It can mega evolve and not many Pokemon can take its place unlike gallade in "XY".
It's good against 3 of diantha's Pokemon and few other boss Pokemon.
great special attack
But gallade has its advantages too.
Great special defence and attack
Its good against some gym leaders and elite four, for example wulfuric and wikstrom.
So its still basically your choice, but I would prefer gardevoir.
