Gallade or Lucario for in-game Pokémon Platinum?

Aug. 21, 2020

I chose Piplup as my starter in Pokémon Platinum. Gallade or Lucario is better for in-game? Gallade can serve as Physical Attacker while Lucario can do both Physical and Special.

Gallade is definitely better than Lucario. You can get a level 24 Kirlia with 3 badges and a level 1 Riolu with 5 badges, so Riolu takes more exp. share training than Gallade and can’t help against Maylene and Wake.sourcesourceGallade @ fist plate/mind plate/expert beltEVs: 100 Spe- brick break -> close combat- psycho cut -> zen headbutt- swords dance- leaf blade -> night slash -> X-scissor

Lucario for sure.Lucario has better stat, speed, defence, could also be either a Psychical or Special. It’s also got wonderful movepool.Here’s a good movepool for it:Lucario @ Life OrbAbility: Inner FocusEVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 SpeNaive Nature- Close Combat- Flash Cannon- Shadow Claw- Extreme SpeedHope I helps!
