doesn't mean it's not a fucking annoying fight
first mon sets stealth rocks and one layer of spikes. i don't think there's ANTYHING that can prevent this. you don't get rapid spin, there's two pokemon that learn taunt and both get murked by the lead, no magic coat, nothing.
then you have
>monstune, which has fucking heat wave and some priority ground move, bulky piece of shit too and of course it's so fucking fast for some reason
>oriture, same shit except physical
>meteorock (rock/electric), which felt impossible until i remembered tms were a thing, it's super fast and has weakness policy and levitate but you can just smack down/bulldoze it with something decently bulky
>the ace is sand rush and also hits like a truck on top of having the durability of an abrams tank
and of course, can't forget the stallshit mon, but at least that you can use leech seed on.
i led with coral hitler, 3 tapped the lead, used lavrenvina to take down dozand, dartoad to snipe monstune at low hp, my oriture for meteorock, and then i had to try and set up sun so my starter could beat the worm
of course the ace has a fire resist berry, so i had to use natural gift cheri berry to break it beforehand
