How to beat Brawly

  1. Flying and Psychic pressure are the cleanest answers to the Fighting core.
  2. Do not give Bulk Up users free turns; focus one target instead of spreading damage.
  3. Meditite can deploy both screens, so physical-only and special-only teams may need extra turns.

Brawly rematch team

Use the second-floor Pokémon Center rematch counter after earning the badge. The roster is substantially stronger than the story fight.

  • Carry status recovery rather than relying on a single uninterrupted sweep.
