You can't counter Goth with just 2 Pokemon.
A lot of the time, you need 3, unless you can catch it on a switch, but this is usually a 50/50 situation.
Goth's most annoying feature was the fact that it could lock you into a move and, at the end, when your Pokemon was about to die, trick back the scarf and kill you, giving it the ability to then trap and cripple something else later.
This means that you need 2 stallbreakers. Almost every Stallbreaker is tricked or just Psychicd by Goth, and if not it usually gets Thunder waved anyway. So your first wallbreaker gets trapped. You have no option to switch, so you let it die.
Now, your plan comes into play. You send out your Pursuit trapper and remove the Gothitelle.
Now, you're all set. Except for the fact that you've lost your Stallbreaker so you can't actually break the stall team anymore.
So now, your final option comes into play. You have to take a second stallbreaker with you.
So you need a pursuit trapper and 2 stallbreakers to make sure you can usually beat Goth stall. Tell me that isn't being forced to bring a counterteam, and I know you karenfags or want-to-win-using-broken-and-overly-easy-strategies-fags hate this word, so i'll use it, overcentralizing.
