That final battle with Ghetsis
 
That final battle with Ghetsis.

I found all his pokemon easy to take out. Other than that overpowered Hydreigon. It's crazy speed and special attack made my pokemon a piece of cake to take out. My strategy was to use my Unfezzant attack with fly,(because it took out a third of Hydreigon's hp) then switch out for another pokemon and heal Unfezzant. Howeve this took awhile due to the Full Restore spamming.

Anyways, did anyone else have trouble taking the hydreigon down?

Skapocalypse March 12th, 2011 5:01 PM

His Hydreigon was a piece of cake for me.

Elektross on the other hand decided it would be fun to one shot almost all of my team.

Spanner226 March 12th, 2011 5:26 PM

It was not difficult at the slightest.

I just used blizzard on my Samurott.

Haxorus- DDance + DDance + Dragon Claw= Sweep

JP March 12th, 2011 5:42 PM

My ice cream Pokemon had no problems taking down that Dragon. :D My entire team had at least one move that could easily counter each of his Pokemon, he wasn't much of a problem.

Shattered_Soul March 12th, 2011 5:47 PM

He always one shot my Zekrom, which was the only of my pokemon that had an advantage against him
I wish I had a pokemon that could learn an ice type move, but I didn't. -.-

Notworking15 March 12th, 2011 5:52 PM

i think Reshiram/Zekrom could take it out in a few turns(assuming it doesn't beat it to the punch), a faster pokemon or an ice type helps too

Gary_MotherTucking_Oak March 12th, 2011 6:17 PM

I used about 3-5 revives on the Hydgreion alone. Sadly, I had no Steel/Dragon/Ice type to tank his attacks. My Samurott survives one attack, I rage Revive.

Blizzard is a great option to fight against him. Non-Ice type Poke's can learn it too.

Neizue March 12th, 2011 8:21 PM

Nothing too it but to do it.
 
If you ask me, "overpowered" is an understatement. I beat him though... After rage quitting a few times :D

Vrai March 12th, 2011 9:04 PM

Eelektross took ages to kill, and I have no idea why. It was probably because my strongest moves/Pokemon happened to be most proficient at Ground-type moves (aka level 52 Excadrill yeah!). Aside from that, though, I really didn't have any kind of troubles with him. :(

DeathOfBlades March 12th, 2011 9:11 PM

Other way around. I had Krookorok and just used Crunch and Foul play and sweeped his whole time. But you do need a couple of revives/max revives/full restores and a roggenrola

インフェルノの津波 March 12th, 2011 9:20 PM

Oh my God, that Hydreigon made me get a Modest Deino and train it to become a Hydreigon. AT LEVEL 64.

solarowl March 12th, 2011 10:03 PM

Haxorus=WIN! My pokemon were way overleveleed when I battled him so he was easy, but still, Haxorus ftw.

BonzaiMudkip March 12th, 2011 10:12 PM

i had no pokemon with me that had a move that can take out hydreigon so it took me a while, even with zekrom. I didn't bother getting the blizzard TM cause i thought it cost too much.
It finally went down when i had scrafty use hi jump kick on it. i didnt know it was a dark type so i didnt know that fighting moves were super effective.

Unfortunately for me, important trainers have the habbit of sending their best out first when they're down to 2 in my game, so that wasn't his last pokemon for me.

I'm looking forward to fighting him in the English-version games since I'll be using Tepig in my first playthrough. It'll be a nice ending to the main story to have my starter take down the big bad's most powerful Pokemon.

When I played the Japanese versions I didn't actually have much trouble with Hydreigon, especially in White when I used Throh. Superpower may have been cheesing it a little but it was still a cool moment. It's that Eelektross of his that can cause real problems, what with it having no weaknesses and a decent moveset and all.

Palkia March 13th, 2011 7:59 AM

It took me a very long time to beat him with my VERY underpowered team, but I got there eventually. Hydreigon was a pain to say the least.

pokewalker March 13th, 2011 7:59 AM

I used Hi Jump Kick with my Scrafty. Bye bye Hydreigon! :D

Mew~ March 13th, 2011 8:06 AM

I took out a few of his pokémon with one hits, the only Pokémon I really had trouble with was his stupid Hydreigon, it took out the whole of my team. I decided to teach my Electross "Dragon tail" and I beat him it the second time in two hits. I didn't actually use any revives or potions during N and Ghetsis so i'm pretty damn proud of myself. :P

Other than that he was very easy.

Subsuck March 13th, 2011 8:18 AM

I was insanely lucky when fighting his Hydregion. I was using a Cryogonal and i managed to dodge two Focus Blasts is a row and kill him with Ice Beam.

It happened again during my second playtrough. I'm a lucky guy :P

MXRider March 13th, 2011 8:58 AM

I lost to him and stupidly saved the game after.

What do I do now? it says i cant enter the league right now.


:(

TheGoddessOfDiscord March 13th, 2011 9:01 AM

All except Hydreigon were super easy. Well, Bouffalant was a bit difficult but because Emboar had Rocky Helmet at the time and because of recoil it was taken out very quickly.
Hydreigon was hard. But thanks to my male Haxorus and his Rivalry and Choice Scarf (he has Quiet nature) I OHKOed him.

There is suppose to be a Team Plasma member inside the pokemon center next to the league. He can teleport you into the building when you talk to him.

Lickitricky March 13th, 2011 11:39 AM

I died three times consecutively when trying to beat Ghetsis. My solution?

I used Reshiram against the coffin thing at the beginning of the battle, spammed X Specials and X Speeds while the thing kept poisoning me, and then sweeped his entire team with Fusion Flare and Dragonbreath.

By far the least dramatic champion battle I had ever done.

Sabrewulf238 March 13th, 2011 4:06 PM

I found Ghetis to be pretty difficult, which was a shock since I hadn't had much trouble at all prior to that battle.

I managed to get lucky with Hydreigon but it was his Eelektross that knocked out a few of my pokemon and started making things look a bit dodgy.

Novia March 13th, 2011 4:12 PM

Ghetsis was really hard for me too, I had to use max revives a few times while trying to beat his Hydreigon. Though, his Pokemon were also about 10 levels higher than most of mine
