I used: Grimmsnarl, Dudunsparce, and Altaria
My Opponent used: Garchomp, Baxcalibur, and Charizard
Stadium: Pokémon League
Battle BGM: Area Zero Pokémon 2

I wanted to get in a battle where I make use of Dudunsparce, and this was the opponent that I was up against, and there are lot of Dragon-type Pokémon, with Charizard as the only Pokémon that is not a Dragon-type used in this battle, even though it did have a Mega Evolution where it was part Dragon-type.
I did went with Grimmsnarl for the lead as he is a good option to use against a Dragon-type team, but with Garchomp knowing Poison Jab, the best I could do was set up a Reflect and then use Parting Shot to get in another Pokémon to the battle.
The strategy with Dudunsparce, this is the Two-Segment Form, I didn't want to go out of my way to get the Three-Segment Form because it is a 1 in 100 chance to even obtain it. She has Glare to paralyze opponents, then set up Coil to boost her Attack, Defense, and accuracy, and then use Headbutt to flinch the opponent, the effects increase with Serene Grace, and with her high HP stat, Dudunsparce will be able to take Physical Attacks very well, as my opponent did use Garchomp and Baxcalibur, both of which had a high Attack stat.
This was a battle where I even put Altaria's Perish Song to use, I have Fire Spin to prevent the opponent from switching out, and I went with a Fairy Tera Type for Altaria to give her an immunity to Dragon-type moves, if I had a Steel Tera Type, then she wouldn't last for long against Charizard, or even to Garchomp as it can use Earthquake. Once I have used Perish Song and trapped the opponent with Fire Spin, Altaria has Roost to restore her HP, and when the Perish Song count is down to 1, I can then switch out Altaria to another Pokémon, likely one that can take an attack from the Pokémon that is on the field. Perish Song does not work if the Pokémon using it is the only one remaining, I did read about that in Pokémon Stadium 2 where moves like Perish Song and Destiny Bond will always fail if used when you only have one Pokémon remaining, but if the opponent only has one Pokémon left, Perish Song does work, and that can come to good use, I never would have expected to make good work of Altaria out of all Pokémon, as this is one of the most underrated Dragon-type Pokémon.
