Which of the swordsmen do you like better, and why?

I prefer Bisharp, because it looks cooler and I prefer its typing. I don't like Fighting or Psychic types much, but I love Steel and Dark types.

Bisharp is so-so, but Gallade looks even better and its typing is more beneficial than Bisharp's (it doesn't have a 4x Fighting type weakness and its Fighting type helps against Dark types) in addition to having a much better movepool including not only Swords Dance, Close Combat, and Night Slash, but also Psycho Cut, Leaf Blade, Earthquake, X-Scissor, the Elemental Punches, Drain Punch, and Stone Edge.

...If Sinnoh Champion gets here...O.O
I dont think the two can really be compared, but if i *had* to choose, Gallade all the way. It has a better typing and movepool. I also like its design more.

Bisharp just looks so much cooler! Plus he's not too bad 2 use. Gallade can take hits better though and of course there's the movepool...

Still, I prefer Bisharp. I've already formulated an entire team based around Bisharp's weaknesses. So that the way I use him can coincide with his Pokedex entry.

AAALLLLWAYS THE LAST HIT.

It's pretty damn risky, but it feels awesome when it gets pulled off.

Gallade. I like the way he looks more than Bisharp.

From a more competitive standpoint, I think Gallade's better, because of Swords Dance and a lot of really good physical moves. Plus he doesn't have a x4 weakness to anything.

Wut are you saying?
I guess I like Bisharp better. Excellent typing, access to STAB Sucker Punch, and a great ability for a physical sweeper(it basicly gives you a +1 boost if your hit with intimadate) makes it out-class Gallade. Now, Gallade has a rather large sp. Def, and a nice physical movepool. I think overal Bisharp is better.

I gotta go with Bisharp. It looks better IMO and it's typing is pretty good. Has a ton of resists and it's ability is awesome for a physical sweeper and negates intimidate. Course a DW Gallade with Justified could be good since it would make people not use dark moves against it for fear of making it stronger. Stat wise they have same attack but Gallade has better speed stat total. The only stat Bisharp beats Gallade in is Defense where Gallade has a great Special Defense. Also Bisharp has potential for when the third Gen V game comes out and brings move tutors with it to beef up it's move pool so until then move pool can't really be used since their is potential for Bisharp. Then you have the fact that Bisharp can be female which might appeal to someone lol.
 
I like them both. I can't choose. Gallade reminds me alot of my favorite Pokemon but so does Bisharp (plus female Bisharp is awesomeness)
