    Thanks, I’ll give this build a shot if I can. I’ve got a good polywrath with water absorb but not enough fighting tera shards. Maybe I’ll get lucky and find a few offline dens to get some more shards. Did you use any held items like metronome?

      I actually used it with water tera type for a while before I realized it should be fighting.

      ETA: Yes, holding metronome. Round 1 I use amnesia, then drain punch (or another fighting move) until Empolean removes effects from us. Once that happens I amnesia again, then belly drum, then tera if I can and drain punch until we win/lose.

        Oh? We’ll if you still pulled it off with a water tera type, I’ll have to give it a shot. Maybe I’ll give it metronome and max out drain punches pp. Hopefully that’ll keep it from annihilating me with it’s grass knot repeatedly again

          With amnesia up grass knot does not do much (as long as it gets skill swapped, or not debuffed).

            Lol this got me further than all the other stategies I tried, but FINALLY, after trying, failing, then modifying my friend’s gallade strategy I got this sucker!

            I set my fighting tera gallade up with covert cloak instead of shell bell (she’ll bells not very useful when you keep getting frozen.) Skill swapped first turn, sacred sword until I got knocked out. On getting back in the ring I tera’ed and use sacred sword until I’d get to about half health, then I’d drain punch back to full or near full health (usually 2 moves,) go back to sacred sword and repeat until empoleon used 2 moves a turn. Then I just spammed drain punch.
