Hello there! I'm a seasoned Pokemon trainer with years of experience traversing various regions, and I've spent a considerable amount of time exploring the ins and outs of the Hoenn region. You've come to the right place with your question about Gallade in Pokemon Emerald. Let's dive into it!

So, you're curious about obtaining Gallade in Pokemon Emerald. Unfortunately, it's not a straightforward process. You see, Gallade, the elegant Blade Pokemon, wasn't introduced into the Pokemon world until Generation IV, which debuted with Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Pokemon Emerald, on the other hand, is a Generation III game. This means that Gallade doesn't exist within the game's code.

Now, you might be thinking, "What about trading?" It's true, trading is a great way to get Pokemon from other games. However, there's a catch. While you can trade Pokemon between generations, you can only trade Pokemon that existed in the older generation. In this case, Emerald wouldn't recognize Gallade even if you tried trading it from a Generation IV game.

Think of it like trying to send a text message to someone who has an older phone that doesn't support texting. The message just won't go through!

Therefore, directly obtaining a Gallade within Pokemon Emerald is simply impossible. The game's data doesn't include it, and trading it from a later generation won't work either.

However, don't lose hope! You can still enjoy having Gallade on your team in later games. If you transfer your Pokemon from Emerald to a Generation IV game or beyond, you can then obtain a male Kirlia and evolve it into Gallade using a Dawn Stone.

Remember, part of the fun of Pokemon is the journey and the anticipation of encountering new Pokemon in different regions!

On reaching the level 30 onwards, Kirlia starts evolving to Gardevoir. Note that Gallade was introduced later, in generation 4, so you can't evolve Kirlia to Gallade in Emerald. Bonus: A Gardevoir can be male, even though it looks female.read more >>
