Trying to beat Hardy the hard way

[Mariona]

So this is actually my first play through and I kinda want to make it memorable for myself when I beat the game.

My usual team can easily crush Hardy but I want to try to win him in a unique way.

 

Here is my team

My plan is to win with both my Shiny Ninjask and Shiny Shedinja brother

So I need to make my Ninjask as bulky as possible and get Sturdy on my Shedinja (since it's a Rock Gym)

 

I thought it's gonna be ez but it's a lot harder than I thought

I need to keep the Ninjask's Speed Boost active to get Smeargle outspeed Aerodactyl and use Entrainment on Shedinja before Rock Slide comes

 

Then I need to buff Mawile with Iron Defense to make my Ninjask able to withstand those Rock Slides throughout the fight.

This is pretty hard since my Mawile got flinch quite a lot from Rock Slide.

 

Well the most tiring part is the EV Training and leveling I think.

After my first try before I retrain EV, most of my Pokemon got OHKO from Rock Slide

I need to train HP and Def for every Pokemon except Shedinja and Smeargle (I need Speed for Smeargle)

 

 

I know that this strategy is not something new, but I'm still happy that I could pull it off.

It took around 8 attempts after I EV Trained all my pokemons.

And as you see, most damage comes from Shedinja and no one else.
