Oh man, the ol' intimidate switcheroo! Staraptor does seem really strong for this fight. I did a similar thing with Granbull, but I also had curse (ghost version) up.

And don't worry about the time, we all have lives to live. 

I used Staraptor because its immune to earthquake and I also have other Pokemon that I used to get rid of his other moves If you play it smart you can waste his moves since he would try to use certain moves against certain types for example he would try to use Earthquake on my Blaziken but I would switch into my Staraptor and it wouldn't do anything.  Staraptor was just ideal since you can waste some of his moves while lowering his attack also mine has double team, and is EV trained in attack

Yeah, I was working something similar with levitate Solrock. In hindsight, it might have been better to catch and use Noibat instead, but I was trying to use quick claw+embargo because I was worried about him using potions to counter the curse. SL got the embargo off on a turn he had to heal, but instead gar just attacked, leaving Granbull to gain three levels from the solo exp lol.
