Baww, Gardevoir is awesome!! And Gallade's pretty cool too.
I actually have a Gardevoir in Platinum. Her name is Euphemia, and I used her against Saturn's Toxicroak. She kicked ASS once she learned Psychic. I used to have a male Ralts in Ruby, but then I started the game over to start a Nuzlocke challenge. Oh well....
I actually have this theory about Gallade and Gardevoir, and that's that in Sinnoh kids always expect that their male Ralts will one day be a Gallade (this doesn't often happen, however, since Dawn Stones are so rare), whereas in Hoenn, Dawn Stones are basically unheard of and Gardevoir is treated as the only true evolution for the Ralts line. I have this story in mind where Barry, the DPPt rival, goes to Hoenn for an Amazing-Race-type function, and he meets Wally and his (male!) Gardevoir, which promotes a long discussion about male Gardevoir vs. Gallade (where Barry's all "ZOMG you've got a male Gardevoir? But Gallade is beast!" and Wally's all, "Why shouldn't I have a male Gardevoir? Everyone knows that Gardevoir's the only TRUE Ralts final evo!").
