Featured Attack
Evolve a Kirlia to Gardevoir to get Synchronoise.
Evolve a Kirlia to Gallade to get Synchronoise.
Sadly, Synchronoise is not a great move. It's inferior to Psychic by virtually every metric, save the fact that it has 5 lower energy cost in PvP. However, Gardevoir and Gallade generally doesn't run this move very often. Try to get a few Synchronoise individuals just in case, but don't worry if you miss out.
Meta Relevance
Mega Gardevoir
Mega Gardevoir is one of the strongest Fiary type (mega) Pokemon and is a must have for anyone lacking Fairy type damage in raids.
GardevoirShadow Gardevoir 
While it's Shadow form is an excellent Fairy type attacker, it's regular form is more of a budget pick that will get outclassed once your collection grows.
