The best moveset for Gardevoir is to go withCharm as a Fast Move and Triple Axel and Shadow Ball as Charged Moves.

Confusion and Charm are solid options for the Fast Move, as both get the same type of attack bonus (STAB). But with a considerably higher DPS than Confusion, Charm can work like a charm (pun intended).

The lack of an STAB bonus move might be a bit surprising. However, Psychic is not as powerful as Shadow Ball, hence why that would be the primary move here.

As for a second Charged Move, Triple Axel does offer some coverage against Dragon and Flying-types. Not to mention, it does have a low energy cost.

Here are all the moves that Gardevoir can learn inPokemon Go:

Gardevoir does somewhat hold up better than Ralts’ other final evolution form,Gallade, in the PvP meta of Pokemon Go.

As for the Ultra League, Gallade is a better option in that format than Gardevoir. Shadow Gardevoir ranked #264 in the Ultra League, with regular Gardevoir at #337.
