5th Gen That final battle with Ghetsis

Braviary with Super Power took out his Hydreigon with ease, but my biggest concern was that annoying Sigilyph.
It forced me to use a few revives.
 
If I am honest, I didn't really have a problem taking him out; of course, his Hydreigon was the toughest, but other than that, I didn't have a problem.

Most likely because most of my Pokemon were high 60's or low 70's, so I could get the speed edge on them.​
 
YES. I hated that thing. I tried everything, from like 60 dragon claws to surfs and brick breaks and it just kept killing me! I had to use Reshiram!
 
I intially had trouble with Hydreigon, then I realized my Braviary was pretty beastly and took it out with two Crush Claws.
 
The only reason I struggled was because I had Reshiram out in front (yes, I deliberately only had five pokémon pre-E4 in order to have an epic battle with Reshiram and N's Zekrom blasting the crap out of eachother with their signature moves). This led me to losing all but Reshiram, when I instantly switched him out. However, with a bit of Ice Beam and luck, I got there in the end.
 
Sure did. Definitely the hardest battle i have ever done
 
Leech Seed stall with Serperior. :):):)
 
It was kind of hard because I was mentally drained from versing N. I found it cool how all my pokemon randomly healed.
 
Hydreigon was annoying to fight it nearly kill all my Teamates with dragon pulse but I defeated it with my Scolipede because dark hates bug.
 
I got extremely lucky against his Hydreigon to be honest xD My initial strategy was to send out my Druddigon and hope I got lucky with Dragon Claw while holding a Quick Claw. Needless to say, this FAILED [I am so bad at strategies xD] So I send out Serperior and for some reason that I still cannot fathom I use Leech Seed against it in a desperate attempt to sap its HP a little. He knocks out Serperior in a few moves and I send out Krookodile.

Krookodile uses Brick Break and Hydreigon survives by about 1 HP. Now I'm thinking "Oh great, Ghetsis is gonna heal Hydreigon now and all my work will be for nothing" and then...LEECH SEED saps him down into a knockout! :D

One of the proudest accidental wins of my Pokémon career xD

His Bouffalont went up against my Krookodile.. I used Brick-Break and it got about 2/3 of its health down xD then it used Head Charge and Rocky Helmet + Recoil Damage = Death to Bouffalant xD
 
The battle with Ghetsis was much easier than what I expected. Only Pokémon I had trouble with was Hydreigon.
 
Ghetsiswas impossible for me.
then i gave up, went to victory road, got a Deino, trained it up to 64, then i used MY Hydregion!
what now ghetsis?!
 
Ghetsis' Hydreigon

Is it just me or is his Hydreigon extremely overpowered?
I flew through all his previous Pokemon, with only one of them even getting damage, but then he released this god of a beast which one hit every one of my Pokemon O_O

Oh and by the way, my Pokemon have attacks which are super-effective against him, but with his fast speed and high hitting attacks he just destroyed me :/

Has anybody else had difficulty, or even have any advice?
 
I had a Choice Scarfed Haxorus. Quite easy win.
 
I beat it with Gothitelle. My Gothie know's Brick Break so I pawnd that Hydreigon easily.

Hydreigon plays on everyone's weaknesses. It can take out Fire with water and kill ice with fire and focus Blast.

I suggest a Psychic or ghost Pokemon since it has no dark moves. Or a Bug type.

Merged with the thread that covers his Hydreigon - which surprisingly wasn't a challenge for me. :(

I just typed in a 15 minute paragraph with about 10 counters to Hydreigon, and it just got deleted since the thread merging while I was typing >.>

I will edit this later with the appropreite counters to Hydreigon since I just lost my patience.

EDIT: Despite Hydreigon's perfect Coverage, it can be easily worked around with the proper Pokemon, let's name a few!
