Here are the best moves to teach your Gallade in Legends Z-A:

Swords Dance
Psycho Cut
Close Combat

As is the case with most physical attackers in the game, Swords Dance is a highly advantageous move that increases the Pokemon's Attack stat, improving their damage.

Aside from that, Gallade being able to use Psycho Cut and Close Combat is essential to make the most out of its Psychic and Fighting-type. Both moves provide a STAB bonus.

Lastly, the Dark-type move, Night Slash, is required to counter Ghost-type Pokemon, who can prove to be one of the strongest counters to Gallade in battle.
