What kind of Pokemon do you use to beat Tate and Liza's Xatu and Claydol and what is the easiest way?

Answer 1

Claydol is mainly a Ground-type Pokemon and Xatu is a Flying and Psychic-type. Using Claydol and Xatu together in battle is a great combo, as it makes type advantage hard - the key to winning a battle. Ground-type Pokemon are weak against Water, Grass and Ice attacks and have an advantage over Electric, Fire, Poison, Rock and Steel-types. Flying-types have an advantage over Grass, Fighting and Bug-type Pokemon but are weak against Electric, Ice and Rock-types. Psychic Pokemon are strong against Fighting and Poison-types but can be stopped by Bug, Dark and Ghost types. Now let's look over this to see which Pokemon would be a good idea: An Ice-type Pokemon would be a good go here, as it matches with Claydol's Ground-type and Xatu's Flying-type. The only drawback would be with Xatu - it's attacks would be only half as effective against it. But don't worry. A good Ice-type would be a Glalie or a Regice. A Dark-type Pokemon would also be a good idea as it packs a punch against Psychic-types. They are hard to come by though, so that's quite a drawback. A good Drak-type Pokemon is Absol. You could use a Rock or Water-type Pokemon as backup and a Electric-type Pokemon after you've beaten Claydol. Be sure to raise your Pokemon to an even level with Tate and Liza's Pokemon.
