Strategy Overview

Using Gorebyss with Spikes can work, as the sight of Rain Dance users trigger a switch to Water-types, and Spikes + Hidden Power Grass will hurt. After you do this once your opponent will most likely keep the Pokemon in so you can freely Surf it. Hydro Pump is always an option over Surf, but that accuracy hurts.
