Rinto's Gallade (Japanese: サトシのエルレイド Rinto's Erureido) is the first Pokémon that Rinto was shown to have in the anime.

In the anime

Justified activated

Gallade debuted alongside Rinto in Trials of a Budding Master!, where they watched the World Coronation Series battle between Ash's Farfetch'd and Dozer's Gurdurr. He later battled against Farfetch'd and dodged all of its attacks, finishing by using False Swipe to take Farfetch'd down without knocking it out.

Gallade and Rinto

In Beyond Chivalry... Aiming to be a Leek Master!, Gallade and Farfetch'd had an official rematch with each other. During the battle, Gallade initially had the upper hand and used Feint to cut the top of the leek that Farfetch'd held. However, Farfetch'd managed to overcome this by mimicking Wikstrom's Aegislash, using the cut-off part as a makeshift shield and the rest of the leek as a sword. Despite using this tactic, Gallade still held some advantage over it. However, this was quickly changed when Farfetch'd landed three critical hits on him with Fury Cutter and evolved into a Sirfetch'd. The damage that Sirfetch'd had dealt earlier was wearing Gallade down, forcing Rinto to let him trigger his Ability, Justified, and boost his attack power. Despite this, Sirfetch'd still managed to defeat the Blade Pokémon with a powerful Night Slash.

Personality and characteristics

From his debut, Gallade is shown to be a powerful and fast battler, dodging every attack that Farfetch'd threw at him and severely injuring it with one False Swipe. He also seems to express a desire to end his battles in a certain way, as shown when he was determined to knock Farfetch'd out with Close Combat. Gallade is shown to be completely synchronized with Rinto and as such, they are a very formidable duo.
