Okay, so I just defeated Flobot and although I am aware that the current release goes up to Corey, I know that I'll forget all the comments I had for the content between after Julia to Flobot so I'm going to share what I thought now, and once I defeat Corey, I'll make another post. Okay, so nothing really jumped out to me as being too off, in regard to the levels. The only criticism I would have about the levels would be the trainers in the Onyx Ward who carry Pokemon who are level 28, which should be brought down to level 27. Everything else was to be expected from a "hardcore" game, so good job on that. Now, onto Flobot.
My team consisted of Fearow (23), Tranquill (24), Pancham (24), Loudred (24), Swalot (24) and Meowstic (24). And luckily, I managed to beat her on the first try. For me she was pretty easy. But don't let that be a reflection of her difficulty, because her team is definitely much harder. Okay, so let me get to the battle.
First she sent out Leavanny. I sent out Fearow. 4x weakness to flying. One Aerial Ace, gone.
Second came Breloom. 4x weakness to flying. One Aerial Ace, gone.
Third was Whimsicott. 4x weakness to poison. One Acid Spray, gone.
Fourth was Trevenant. To take this thing out I first used Toxic, then I basically spammed Air Cutter from Tranquill and Aerial Ace from Fearow until I was able to take it out.
Fifth was Ivysaur. One Psyshock from Meowstic, gone.
And last but not least, Cradily. First, I used Toxic. Then, I switched into Pancham and spammed Karate Chop until it was gone.
Reflecting upon the battle, I would give it a 5/10 for difficulty (for me, it was easier than Julia, but that's just me). Also, her move Zero Emotion was used only once, and it was not effective against my Swalot, so I didn't get to experience her custom move at all, really. If I had to make one suggestion to improve upon this battle, I would take one AND ONLY ONE of the three Pokemon on her team who have a 4x weakness and replace them with a Grass type Pokemon who has only 2x weakness to any type (ex: mow-rotom or sawsbuck). And that's all for after Julia to Flobot. Will update when I beat Corey. See ya!
