Character: Connie Maheswaran | conniemaheswaran Badge/Gym Leader: Brock / Boulder Badge Elite/Regular: Regular Team Team:Artemis the Gallade, Cú Chulainn the Scizor, and Hercules the Pangoro Battle Details: Artemis with resistance against Rock-type moves will lead the charge in this fight, opening with Swords Dance to pump up their Attack with the hope of one-shotting Rhyhorn with a single Leaf Blade at 4x effectiveness, using it once or twice more if they absolutely have to. With the Golem's formidable Defense stat, they'll open with a Leer to bring it down before continuing to spam Leaf Blade until it goes down—the high critical rate of the move and the previous Swords Dance setup should help here. By the time Onix gets brought out, they'll use Leer twice to bring its massive Defense down as much as possible before continuing with the Leaf Blade strategy. What works, works.
If Artemis goes down unexpectedly, Cú Chulainn will be swapped in and continue with a similar strategy: Swords Dance, Leer as necessary, and Metal Claw for STAB and 2x super-effective damage, while if she goes down, Hercules with go in with a few Leers and a Hammer Arm at the ready.
