Post Melony update.
After getting to Hammerlocke with Opal, I faced Hop WHO KILLED TWO OF MY STRONGEST POKEMON. RIP Stewart, you were a good dog. RIP Wanda, you were a good waifu.
At Melony's it wasn't any better. Florence and Marianne (the Bewear) managed to handle Melony's Frosmoth, Darmanitan and Eiscue, but the Lapras was the reall killer.
Literally.
I sent out Spirit and paralyzed the Lapras while taking a decent chunk of damage. The Lapras set the veil and my moves barely scratched it. Spirit died after taking two ice moves. Then, I sent Bewear, that went out after one move, but not without damaging the Lapras. Then, I was in a problem. I couldn't use Florence since she barely had any health on her and Chevonne wouldn't survive a single hit, so I sent out Hayden who barely scratched Lapras with two Dark Pulses, while, after a single Surf, I stayed with 6 HP. And then, the veil lifted and I managed to take it down with Draining Kiss.
There was probably a way to avoid those deaths, but I guess I didn't see them. Hopefully, next gym will be easier.
