You sure it's a good idea to try to predict an Electric attack in the Battle Tower? The NPCs don't put much thought into their moves, you know.

Hmm, not really sure that Stealth Rock is a good idea for the Battle Tower if you are not going to abuse it by using Roar or Whirlwind.

Yeah, I tried to fool them in the battle factory, switching from Gyarados to Electwire against Ampharos, he used Light Screen when I switched, then on the next turn he used Thunderbolt :sweat: Predicting ain't gonna work, but at least at the begging of the challenges the AI is extremely dumb.
