>>35322451In some ways the team is more stupid and in some ways it’s less stupid. At least there aren’t multiple Voltorbs spamming Sonicboom with a guaranteed outspeed, and having half her team actually be cheerleading related is a nice touch. However, the only two things you could catch by this point worth a damn (Ralts and Abra) have been replaced with garbage, and there’s nonstop electric terrain, so all electric moves are boosted, and Charge Beam’s Sp.Atk increase pushes things into nonsense territory.
To make matters worse, Electric Terrain ups the Galvanize boost from 1.2 to 1.5 in this game, so Geodude’s Tackle becomes a massive pain in the ass, and God help you if he uses Selfdestruct. Even things that resist electric are going to take a massive hit, and Oricorio’s Tailwind might make him fast enough to outspeed some grass and water starters, which are the most reliable way of taking him out before he begins fucking the shit out of you.
There’s a lot of luck in this fight.
