Leader Byron uses three Pokémon. Due to ability [[Levitate]] and having {{type|Psychic}}, Bronzor is not affected by Ground-type moves and only takes normal damage from Fighting-type moves, so Fire-type moves are your only choice. Steelix has Ice Fang, so avoid using Ground-type Pokémon on it. Its DragonBreath may surprise you and paralyze your Pokémon. Byron's strongest Pokémon is Bastiodon. It is very good defensively, but its Rock/Steel typing gives it 2 major weaknesses -- 4x damage from both Fighting-type and Ground-type moves. Avoid using Fire-type moves on Bastiodon. Hit Bastiodon hard with Fighting-type or Ground-type moves fast before it uses Iron Defense to boost its Defense stat.
