The red horns that were on his head have moved down to his chest, like that of Gardevoir, but are much sharper. His head is also similar to that of a Gardevoir, but it instead has a large gray-blue horn resembling a gladiator helmet. Another notable feature is the blade-like protrusions from his elbows, which Gallade can use as swords. It seems that the sharp protrusions can be extended and retracted when necessary. The shiny version of Gallade has a blue coloring where the original has green, and his "helmet" becomes silver instead of light blue. He also has a slightly purple colored hue.
