Kirlia (Japanese: キルリア Kirlia) is a Psychic-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Kirlia has a white body and looks as if it's wearing a mini-skirt. Kirlia has skinny, green legs. Kirlia's hair doesn't block its eyes as much as Ralts's hair does. Kirlia's hair has bangs that reach down to its shoulders and the two red fins have shifted their position.
Gender differences
No physical differences, but a male Kirlia can evolve into an Gallade when exposed to a Dawn Stone or evolve into Gardevoir when it reaches Level 30 while a female Kirlia can only evolve into Gardevoir.

In the anime
Kirlia first appeared in Jirachi: Wishmaker. Butler used the Emotion Pokémon for a magic act and to fight Absol.
Elijah used a Kirlia in a movie for Lights, Camerupt, Action. The Emotion Pokémon had a "damsel-in-distress" role for the movie it was used in.
Kirlia also appeared in Do I Hear a Ralts? alongside its evolved form, Gardevoir. Both of them sent Jessie, James and Meowth flying when the Rocket Trio cornered Max and Ash's Snorunt while they were hurrying to send Ralts to the Pokémon Center. However, Kirlia and Gardevoir thought that Max was also stealing Ralts, too. When Ralts blocked Kirlia and Gardevoir's Psychic, all hostilities were ignored and the two other Psychic Pokémon left. Kirlia and Gardevoir appeared once more at the near-end of the episode to send James flying (Ralts already launched Jessie and Meowth for posing themselves as a Gardevoir and Kirlia).
A Kirlia was living in an abandoned mining colony in Fear Factor Phony. Jessie's Wobbuffet fell in love with the Emotion Pokémon.
A Kirlia was also used by Melodi in Mutiny in the Bounty!. Melodi used her Kirlia so Ash and his friends can find out where Pokémon Hunter J and her minions will strike next after Ash's Pikachu, Melodi's Gardevoir and Team Rocket's Meowth got stolen.
In the manga
In Pokémon Special, Ruby has a Ralts, nicknamed Ruru. While he was with Wally, Wally wound up keeping Ruru after an earthquake seperated Ruby and Wally. Ruru was returned to Ruby when he met up with Wally again.
