I guess you would need to git the gud then.
I run into the same problem though, it gets really annoying to lose to one fellow you didn't really see coming.

Well for OP his entire team is getting countered by every Pokemon on the opponent's team so obviously he's got lots of common counters to his team he needs to address.

This seems to happen every time I land him. It's like nobody knows what they're doing.

Love going into that random battle and seeing a Xerneas, predicting it will come out first so I send out Gengar. Gengar sludge bombs it and it is gets poisoned it dies instantly before it can move even with the insta power up of Xerneas. Even if it does not I kill it next turn since I keep my Gengar Focus Sashed to troll Xerneas and Talonflame.

To be honest it can be difficult to counter on randoms if you happen to not have a Fighting type, since its subs are insanely hard to break and it tends to annoy you with Substitute/Thunder Wave/maybe Confuse Ray I don't remember.

The level difference is too large. High-UU mons are where it's at.

Things like Groudon and Kyogre are devastating even at lower levels. Seriously, they tried putting them in Gen 3 OU by fixing their levels to 86 or something... and then quickly sent them back as the metagame crumbled around them.

And that Barboach was literally the best thing on my team.

Not really to be honest. It's mostly just poor team planning.
I need to get the gud.
