Can someone recommend a good moveset for a Gallade?

[Kardin]

I'm considering raising a Gallade, but I'm not sure what moves I want to give it. What I know for sure is that I'd give it Leaf Blade, make it Adamant, and EV train Attack. What I'm asking for is three more moves that will make it useful for competitive play, and a second stat to EV train. Thanks!

what about psycho cut, night slash, leaf blade, and close combat. i think it makes it well rounded and strong

Yes, it covers a lot of types but Medicham does the Scarf-fighting type pokemon thing waaaaaay better. Gallade is unique because he can inflict loads of status and can take some special hits. Consider it's unique options.

Gallade@Toxic/Flame orb
Adamant nature
Steadfast
Moves:
-Close Combat
-Swords Dance
-Stone Edge

I think these are okay.

Gallade doesn't have Guts..Facade is kinda useless on him :/
