Mamoswine lv 65: ancient power, earthquake, blizzard, amnesia

 

Archeops lv 67: acrobatics, crunch, dragon claw, thrash

 

Greninja lv 66: double team, night slash, surf, extrasensory

 

diggersby lv 64: swords dance, strength, earthquake, dig

 

The rest are around 55-60 consisting of: clefable,Bronzong,ninetales,lilligant,dusknoir,emboar

Stealth rock + trick room was all I needed to beat her

Also: rock slide on archeops

Relearn Rock Slide on Archeops, that's basically all you need lol. A high level Archeops outspeeds everything she has and kills them p easily. Could even follow up with Greninja on them too.

 

The move relearner is near the bottom vendors in Agate Circus

Archeops learns Rock Slide at level 51. Why would you keep Thrash over it?

It is so fast that it should have no problem to sweep with that, if you give it a Metronome/Hard Stone/Wide Lens.

If not, Greninja will be able to finish off with Surf, even though it decreases accuracy of moves. Try Rain Dancing with Greninja first turn, give it an Air Baloon and EQ with Mamoswine. After that,Archeops should be able to handle the rest.

Choose a rock type Pokemon with sturdy or good enough defences (I used Carbink, because it's the only rock type besides Lycanroc I like the design of) to set up stealth rock. Idt your team is too slow, so TR might not even be necessary

Edit: Nvm I just read you still get outsped despite your mons having better speed stats apparently. I used two Carbink, one with stealth rock and the other with TR lol So 4 pokemon did all the work for me xD G'luck my fren

Wow, Typhlosion with 100 and Darmanitan with 95 Base speed outspeed Archeops with 110? Maybe you should EV train it up in speed a little bit. You didn't buy Power Anklet when you could by the Dept. Store?

 

You could pair Greninja with Archeops. Greninja might bait SolarBeam from Typhlosion and Hammer Arm/whatever fighting move Darmanitan has and allow Archeops to sweep. It's a matter of soft resetting if you don't wanna EV train at all...
