Guide

Gardevoir is a huge distance AOE zonner. You can deal a ton of damage using Psyshock 3 AOE Hit to deal a ton of damage. Reducing it's CD as it hit, with a good positionning, you can make every mid / late game fights yours. However, take care in early game, you are maybe the worst pokémon until level 6 if not 10. Pokémon like Lucario are a real pain for you since you have no chance to escape him early on.

In early game, you might wanna play pretty safe, you dont have a huge dps at this point and confusion is nearby enough as a follow up to kill someone. Since you have teleport and Eject Button, you can overposition yourself a bit compare to other carry. Remember Teleport boost your next auto attack. However, take care of not going to deep alone, you're still an easy target without your teleport.

On level 6, you unlock Psychock, at this point of the game, you will be able to offer a great dps for your team. Your damage output also became very good at this point. Remember the 2nd and 3rd hit will hit at the same distance and angle you put first one, so in order to hit your opponent, you need to move in the same direction as him. This can be pretty hard to do and every movement skill make your 2nd and 3rd hit impossible to hit. However, it's really great when you get chased. Positionning is the most important skill to have when using Psyshock so make extra attention to where you go when using it ! Remember it will replace teleport, so at this point, you have damage, but are a free kill if you miss your Psychoc is on CD.

Level 8 is where you unlock Moonblast. This ability is great to deal damage, as well as giving you a Shield and Stunning your opponent, making it the perfect ability to setup your Psychock, as well as defending yourself from an Assassin like Ectoplasma or Zeraora thanks to the little dash you make backward when using it. However, take care of not doing this dash in your opponent team !

Level 10 is when you unlock Fairy Singularity, this ability is litteraly a black hole, packing your opponent and dealing a good amount of damage. As Moonblast, it's a very great setup tool in order to hit your Psychoc and a really great help for the rest of your team, Ronflex and Zeraora using really whell it's displacement ability to enhance their own capacities to hit even more targets. Energy Amplifier will also boost your damage a lot when using it, so it make it the perfect time to wipe a team by yourself.

For my itemisation, i go for a full Sp. AD build, using Wise Glasses to enhance a lot your base damage, Shell Bell to give you even more damage as well as a bit of healing for laning phase mostly. If you are not confortable with Shell Bell, i recommand using Buddy Barrier for the utilitary it give, making you a bit safer against assassins, or Sp. Atk Specs if you wish to gain even more Sp. AD. However, i do not recommand Sp. Atk Specs since scoring a lot can be quite hard with a squishy carry like this.
