Shadow Gardevoir's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Shadow Gardevoir PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Gardevoir is a fully-evolved Psychic and Fairy dual-type Pokémon. It has a very high attack stat that is further bolstered by the shadow bonus. Because of this, Shadow Gardevoir is one of the best Fairy-type raid attackers and a solid Psychic-type raid attacker as well. And this is without requiring any legacy attacks, as Shadow Gardevoir prefers Charm and Dazzling Gleam for Fairy-damage, and a Confusion-Psychic combo for Psychic-damage.

Though it should be noted that Gardevoir has a Mega form that solidly outperforms its Shadow form with the same attacks.

Shadow Gardevoir PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Gardevoir is an all-out attack focused Pokémon that is very frail defensively. Not only that, all of its fast attacks have pretty long animations making it difficult to maneuver as well. As such, Gardevoir doesn’t really do well in PvP, in general.
