Pokemon Radical Red v4.1 Normal Mode - vs. Rocket Boss Giovanni (Silph Co.)

I never want to see the concept of Rock Head Torterra + adding Head Smash to its movepool in my life ever again.

That said, this was definitely another moment where I should have swapped team members around. If that Torterra sets up a Shell Smash it's GG.
I had no other choice than to play around with pivoting well enough so that I don't get in a position where it can set up on me. To that end, I had Primarina one shot his Hippowdon lead so it can't set up rocks. This does however make Sand Veil Garchomp come out, with whom I have to get lucky, especially since Moonblast is only a 12.5% chance to kill, and can miss due to the aforementioned Sand Veil. I could use Pixie Plate, but that would probably scare Giovanni into not sending it out and maybe going for Excadrill. The other ace player was Alolan Ninetales, who removes the sand after Hippowdon is gone.
Once again, some Ghost type is good for one turn with Mega Kangaskhan, though you still want it to be bulky enough to not die to Parental Bond Crunch.
Fuck Garganacl.
