8/10 at least.

Really good card. Powerful storm can easily do 100+ with the right means of acceleration. What makes Gallade stand out is that the attack is boosted by energy on your bench. You can use something like Ho Oh EX's rebirth to put energy on the field. Not only do you have a powerful attacker to take Gallades place once he goes down, but you also do more damage with Gallade's attack.

If this doesn't bring up attacking stage 2s to the format, I don't think anything will.

This thing wont survive more than 1 turn thanks to Mewtwo EX. its got a good attack, but its stage 2 and is nothing more than a big attacker that needs a lot of support to get going. Not to say thats bad, but its not a good stage 2 in this meta. Most playable stage 2s have some sort of acceleration or immunity ability (basically a major support card to a deck) and this does neither. Plus the psychic weakness is one of the worse weaknesses you can have.

5.5/10 Fun deck material at best

Ahh. My 2nd main squeeze :smile:

I run the Gallade Ho-oh EX combo and it wrecks house. I've even beaten a few Darkrai/ Keldeo decks. Mewtwo? Please

Anyway, Gallade is an amazing card if you know how to use it. It's certainly done me good. Its 2nd attack you well almost never use. Yeah it is a Stage 2 and yeah it is Psychic weak, but don't let that dissuade you from using it.

7.75/10 not great but far from bad.
9/10 cuz it's Gallade (Ninetales is my 10:biggrin
