Mega Gardevoir ex is the biggest Gardevoir ever printed: 360 HP and an Ability, Overflowing Wishes, that searches your deck for Basic Psychic Energy and attaches them across your Benched Pokémon. One Ability activation can flood an entire board.
What Mega Gardevoir ex Does
Mega Gardevoir ex — Stage 2, MEGA Psychic Pokémon from Mega Evolution (card #60 of 132), 360 HP, Double Rare. Evolves from Kirlia.
Overflowing Wishes — Cost: Psychic. Damage: —. For each of your Benched Pokémon, search your deck for a Basic Psychic Energy card and attach it to that Pokémon. Then, shuffle your deck.
Mega Symphonia — Cost: Psychic. Damage: 50×. This attack does 50 damage for each Psychic Energy attached to all of your Pokémon.
Weakness: Darkness ×2. Resistance: Fighting -30. Retreat Cost: 2.
Which Decks Want It
Psychic decks are its home, evolving from the same Ralts and Kirlia lines that powered Gardevoir ex. Where the original Gardevoir recovered Energy from the discard pile, the Mega floods it straight from the deck — the two cards anchor very different builds.

Playing With (and Against) It
Mega Symphonia does 50 damage for each Psychic Energy attached to all of your Pokémon, so the Ability is also the damage. Every Energy you attach is both tempo and firepower — but remember the Mega stakes: this is a 3-Prize Pokémon when it falls. Keep its Weakness (Darkness ×2) in mind when you choose your matchups.
By the Numbers
Mega Gardevoir ex is one of 10 Pokémon ex printed at Double Rare in Mega Evolution. Its 360 HP ranks #2 among those 10 ex on raw bulk. In the sets we track, this is the Pokémon's only ex printing — Mega Evolution is where you go to get it. Its hardest printed hit is Mega Symphonia at 50× damage — the number every Weakness and Resistance calculation in its matchups starts from.
Verdict: Mega Gardevoir ex earns its spotlight in Mega Evolution — a card with a clear job, a clear home, and a clear plan for the turns it is on the table. That is more than most cards in any set can say.
