Wallace's [[Wailord]] starts with [[Rain Dance]]. It may be a good idea to have an Electric-type in your team that knows the powerful move [[Thunder]], which has 100% accuracy in heavy [[rain]]. This can allow you to take out Wailord, and maybe several of his other Pokemon, easily. Take Wailord out as soon as possible because it knows the powerful move [[Water Spout]], a move which deals more damage the more health Wailord has. As long as the rain is in effect, his Water-type moves will deal twice the normal damage, so take out Wailord as soon as possible. Next, he sends out his [[Tentacruel]]. It is a Water/Poison-type so don't use Grass-types against this one. Also watch out for its ability [[Liquid Ooze]]: don't use damage absorbing moves like [[Giga Drain]] or [[Leech Seed]]. Take Tentacruel out with a powerful Electric-type attack, preferably [[Thunder]] while the rain is still in effect. Be careful of [[Toxic]], a move which badly poisons your Pokemon. Next, he has [[Whiscash]], a Water/Ground-type Pokemon. Don't use Electric-type attacks on this one, because it will have no effect! The good news is, however, that it is 4x weak to Grass-type attacks so switch to a Grass-type Pokemon and take it out quickly. It has [[Hyper Beam]], an extremely powerful move, [[Amnesia]] which raises its [[Special Defence]] and make it harder to damage, [[Surf]] which will likely be powered up by the rain, and [[Earthquake]] which will deal harsh damage. Get Whiscash out of the way with a powerful Grass-type attack. (Note: [[Tropius]] is an excellent Pokemon to fight Whiscash as it is a Grass-type and also avoids damage by Earthquake.) Next, he sends out his [[Ludicolo]]. It has [[Leech Seed]] to drain your Pokemon's health each turn (it can get annoying later on), [[Giga Drain]] which steals health, the extremely annoying [[Double Team]] which raises its evasiveness and [[Surf]]. Try taking it out with a Flying-, Bug- or Poison-type attack before it uses Double Team because it will become extremely annoying. A Pokemon with [[Aerial Ace]] should do fine against Ludicolo. Next, he sends out [[Gyarados]], a powerful Water/Flying-type. It knows [[Earthquake]], [[Hyper Beam]], [[Surf]] and [[Dragon Dance]], a move which boosts its speed and attack. Fortunately, it is 4x weak to Electric-type attacks, so take it out in one shot before it has a chance to make a move. Finally, his last and most powerful Pokemon, [[Milotic]]. It is holding a [[Sitrus Berry]] which heals 30HP and may get annoying later on. Do not use Grass-types against it as it knows a powerful Ice-type move, [[Ice Beam]]. It knows [[Toxic]] to badly poison your Pokemon and [[Surf]]. Finally, it knows [[Recover]], a move which restores HP. This will prove annoying, especially since it can use it 20 times. Take Milotic out with a strong Electric-type attack before it can do much.
