To beat him, you'll have to battle Pok\u00e9mon like Gallade, Aerodactyl, and Dusknoir. Gallade is a Psychic and Fighting-type Pok\u00e9mon, which means it will be weak against Fairy and Flying-type moves. But it will also suffer greater damage from Ghost-type attacks. It has a chance of being the second Pok\u00e9mon you'll face when battling against Cliff, so make sure you bring Pok\u00e9mon such as Gengar with Lick and Shadow Ball to quickly and effectively faint Gallade. Other Pok\u00e9mon you can use are Gardevoir, Togekiss, Ivetal, Moltres, Mewtwo, Charizard, or Pidgeot, considering the high effective damage they can deal to Cliff's Gallade. But any Pok\u00e9mon that knows Fairy, Flying, or Ghost-type moves will give you an advantage. This is also valid for when Gallade is featured in raids. But when it comes to Cliff's battle, you'll have to keep in mind his next Pok\u00e9mon in the lineup when choosing your party. The first Pok\u00e9mon he'll send is Aerodactyl, while the second Pok\u00e9mon can be Gallade, Slowking, or Cradily. After you beat one of those, the third Pok\u00e9mon can be Tyranitar, Dusknoir, or Mamoswine.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/07204450\/teamgorocket-balloon-launch.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358184"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1818"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=358184"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358184\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":358363,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358184\/revisions\/358363"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/275488"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=358184"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=358184"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=358184"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=358184"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=358184"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=358184"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=358184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
