No matter what Pok\u00e9mon you use, there is a chance that Gardevoir knows a move that could be super effective against it, but that doesn't mean that this Pok\u00e9mon in invincible. Thankfully, due to its Psychic and Fairy typing, it is weak to a small handful of different moves and Pok\u00e9mon. Having Pok\u00e9mon with Poison, Steel, and Ghost moves are key, which leaves you open to a good selection of Pok\u00e9mon to counter Gardevoir should you ever come across one. The prime choice would be a Pok\u00e9mon like Gengar, which can learn moves like Hex, Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb, and more to take down your foe. Otherwise, pretty much any Ghost-type Pok\u00e9mon will have a massive advantage against a Gardevoir, so someone like Chandelure could help out. Other Pok\u00e9mon to consider include Metagross, Deoxys, and even other-typed Pok\u00e9mon--so long as they know moves that will work well against the Gardevoir menace. For instance, a Deoxys that knows a Thunder move won't exactly be the best choice to take down a Gardevoir as quick as possible, but Poison Jab will work fine. Just plan ahead and make sure you have a strong Pok\u00e9mon from one of these categories for an awaiting Gardevoir--and you'll be taking it down in no time.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05060210\/2735.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394232"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/916"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=394232"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394232\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":394243,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394232\/revisions\/394243"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/394233"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=394232"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=394232"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=394232"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=394232"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=394232"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=394232"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=394232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
