>>44219058You do get healed, but I'd still argue he is the toughest in game battle of any mainline Pokemon game. 5 of his Pokemon have really good coverage with strong moves along with good stats, one of which of course being the infamous Hydreigon, and the 6th is a toxic stall Cofagrigus with curse body that can mostly run it well if you stubbornly try and stick with the cover dragon, which is sloted in 1st of your party automatically after catching with no chance to mess with its movepool or anything. Beatable of course, but easily the hardest in game main storyline battle for me.
