Aquablade96 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) I have fought him three times and it is frustrating that the first time I fought him i beat all but his Metagross and his Gardevoir, and I was only 54 with two 52(Hellbat, sundae).

T.O.W.A.N. Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) When fighting in double battles, a good way to win is to have both of your pokemon gang up on one pokemon. For this fight, your skuntank, arcanine, galvantula, and swampert are going to be your team players. If you need to find another pokemon, escavalier is a great pokemon against Radomus (and will be good in the fights against Luna and Adrienn). Other great pokemon that you can use are moxie krookodile, araquanid, honchkrow, and contrary malamar. Or you could bring two flygons and spam earthquake.

Elvenlore Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Back when I was struggling against Radomus I was advised by others in the Reborn Discord to ignore his Gallade and focus on his other Pokemon. His Gallade is relatively useless compared to his other Pokemon -- you want to stop him from setting up Trick Room, because his entire team revolves around it. His whole team has low speed so you can use that to your advantage. When he gets Trick Room up the battle becomes ten times harder. Keep him from setting it up, or negate it with your own Trick Room, and he becomes easy pickings. When he sends out his first two Pokemon, ignore Gallade and take out the other one as a priority. He has two Trick Roomers. When I fought him I took out his second lead first to avoid the Trick Room, statused Gallade to shut it down (and keep it down) and worked through the rest of his team one by one. The only problem I had was with Malamar because I hadn't brought anything specifically for it, which made it a bit more frightening. Your Swampert's Strength (move) should, if I remember correctly, be affected by the field. Some moves that send chess pieces flying I believe turn rock type, so watch your weaknesses. I'd also be wary of leading with a dark type unless you're willing to potentially fodder it to Gallade once it gets a hit off since Gallade carries Close Combat. Or you could bring a dark type specifically to bait the fighting moves off your other team member to get a clean hit in. I can't remember what his other lead is but I think it was surprisingly bulky... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn Zephyr Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 One thing I've learned from my struggles with the most recent Gym Leader is that sometimes, levels do make all the difference. If you're still struggling with him after taking everyone else's advice, go ahead and do a spot of grinding- as your team is now, everyone's got 3 levels worth of growing room- particularly handy, since most fully-evolved pokemon get at least +2 to their most relevant stats with each level.

Zander Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Have Galvantula with bug buzz on your team instead of Arcanine. Open up with Noivern and Swampert. Spam Earthquake for over all damage and Hurricane/Dragon Pulse to kill a Pokemon. When Swampert faints, switch to Skuntank and spam Night Slash. If Noivern dies first then switch to Galvantula and continue till Swampert dies. Make sure to target his trick room set ups. You'll win the battle then. If it's still not enough then train that Mightyana up to know sucker punch. It should be a wrap then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shithappens Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Get heracross with megahorn and moxie. 4x vs Malamar. It will also destroy the dark gym and used to destroy Terra before she got seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
