I felt like I needed a secondary water type that wasn't as paper-thin as Sharpedo and still could deal decent damage and offer good coverage. Sadly this couldn't happen thanks to Spheal killing itself before I could even catch it and the poor Staryu falling victim of a terrible brainfart on my end.
Armaldo was boxed in favour of Claydol, which can offer ground immunity, EQ stab, screen support, all of which are gonna be really helpful against the E4
*cough*Steven's Metagross*cough*. Taking down Groudon without casualties required very careful maneuvering with Altaria putting it to sleep and Rain dancing to neuter its Fire blast, as well as making sure it didn't get too many bulk ups.
Wallace was somewhat easy: only his Milotic posed a moderate threat thanks to getting both a confusion with water pulse and a freeze with Ice beam.
