Making a Sweeping Gardevoir?

Oct. 10, 2015



Hi everyone. I’m trying to make use of a Mega-Gardevoir and I seem to have encountered a few problems. The moveset I use on it is Hyper Voice, Psychic, Focus Blast and Shadow Ball. EV spread is 252 Sp. Attack, and 252 Speed, 4 HP. Modest nature (+ Sp. Attack, - Attack).

I’ve been doing a few test runs with it and it just seems like it doesn’t sweep well. Most foes that aren’t Dragon type take Hyper Voice just fine with a bit of health remaining. And Gardevoir isn’t even the fastest out there and she’s rather fragile too so usually the counterattack hits me pretty hard, in fact even a Moon Blast might take her out at times.

Anything I can do about this set and stuff I can change up?

Gardevior, as someone pointed out in comments, is built for wallbreaking. Although it packs good power behind its attacks, its speed does hold it back. Obviously, Gardevior cannot possibly solve this itself, so the most effective way to play Gardevior is to use its teammates effectively.
