I almost did by Hapu.

They're was a pretty jarring level spike on the last island and admittedly my team was full of slow ground weak mons

Hapu came as a shock to me.
I knew she specialized in ground types, so I thought my Tsareena and Wishiwashi could sweep her with no effort. What I didn't expect was for her to have a fucking Flygon (who only takes normal damage from water and grass) and Gastrodon (who resists water). And that was all before dealing with her Mudsdale and its goddamn Stamina.

> Hau swept my team once.
Normally the AI is pretty dumb, but that time it somehow knew that my A-Marowak had Lightning Rod and went for Psyshock.
But for other reasons I had to go back to last save, then I beat him easily.

> Almost got swept by Totem Mimikyu
Holy crap, that was a slaughter. Only reason it did not destroy everything I had was because of the Pokémon Refresh dodges.

The rest of the game was easy as hell, even though I kept Exp.Share off. Had some difficulty on the beggining of Poni Island, especially Hapu (some recovery items were needed), but that's it.
