Well, even though my highest level Pokemon was somewere around lv.22, I still couldn't beat her. Eventually, I just traded a Drowzee for a Machop in the department store, leveled it up a few levels and then beat her.
Probably whenever my Pokemon go to sleep...and I never have an awakening or full heal to cure them. It always takes five turns for MY pokemon to wake up!
