OK my problem is this:

I had a battle earlier and my opponent's first pokemon was ninjask, the first move it used was protect which allows it to raise its speed. The next move it used was substitute followed by swords dance, this stratagie was repeated about three times.
After he had maxed out its attack and speed he used baton pass and switched to his electrivire which inherited its maxed out attack and speed... ofcourse I was no match for the electrivire's attack and too slow for its maxed out speed so it one hit Koed all my pokemon!

I cannot touch ninjask because of substitue/protect combo and the swords dance/speed ability/baton pass thing makes the next pokemon sent out invincible!

anyone know how to beat this strategy?

You use Feint (An attack that only works if your opponent uses protect) or Fury Swipes or any other attack that attacks multiple times so when the subsitute is destroyed, you can continue attacking. You could also use Heart Swap to take your opponents stat changes.

I agree there... Use Feint OR Brick Break.... Though it will be Weak effective, you break protect, detect, and other walls like that!!!! I think....

This goes in S&M. Since it's a simple question, find the Q&A thread there.
