I think that Gallade would have been better for two reasons: (1) unique Fighting coverage + Swords Dance; (2) it is a physical attacker unlikely most of your pokemons ===> in my opinion, a rerun is mandatory.

True but that’s risking Hatenna surviving long enough to become Hatterene it’s basically risk vs reward. I personally too would take Gallade but I’m explaining why he might have chosen gardevoir Granted Hatenna isn’t in his party for a while cause the other mons are better

IK I'm late to the party but his ruleset wouldn't allow him to USE Blipbug until it evolved... he's still a bit of a fool for not catching one of course, but Slowpoke was the first pokemon he could use right away

[@ItsFireTiger]

If Blipbug was on the same route as Slowpoke then no unless blip bug is on any other route as well. And you can use blipbug later once the level Cap allows it to become Orbettle. The same happens with all Pokemon who gains the Nuzlockes type in their evolution of their pre-evos don't have it yet.
