Mega Gallade Best Nature and Moveset for Story

Adamant or Jolly

Nature Stat Changes
Adamant ↑ Attack, ↓ SpAtk
Jolly ↑ Speed, ↓ SpAtk

Since Gallade is a Fast Physical Attacker, its best Nature is either Adamant or Jolly to boost its Attack or Speed further, while reducing its Special Attack stat.

Alternative Natures

Nature Stat Changes
Lonely ↑ Attack, ↓ Defense
Naughty ↑ Attack, ↓ SpDef

You can also give Gallade either Lonely or Naughty nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.

Keep in mind that giving Gallade any of the above two natures will increase the damage it receives, making it less ideal for Competitive Play and harder post-game content.

Use Mints to Change Natures

Mint Usage

If your Gallade has a different Nature than the ones we recommend above, you can use a Mint to change its Nature.
Mints Locations and How to Change Nature

Best Gallade Moveset for the Story

Move Type Cooldown
Psycho Cut Pokemon Psychic Type Icon 7
Swords Dance Pokemon Normal Type Icon 15
Ice Punch Pokemon Ice Type Icon 7
Close Combat Pokemon Fighting Type Icon 12

We recommend the moves Close Combat, Psycho Cut, Swords Dance, and Ice Punch when using Gallade during the main story.
