If I were you I would start off with Scyther and kill Meditite with Aerial ace. Then I would switch and Electabuzz and use Psychic. Then when she sends out Lucario you should send out Growlithe and use Flamethrower. If you want to you can keep Electabuzz and use Brick break on Lucario.

Swift answered:

Use Scyther, Growlithe and Electabuzz for the best chance

Use Aerial Ace on all for super-effective and Psychic also (not including the Meditchan?)

And it is clear you used AR on your team Smile very clear so you should be embarrassed you can't beat it!

It's disgusting.

Your movesets really are horrible, except for probably Pupitar only.

If you want to do some damage, put movesets on your Pok�mon based on their strongest stat, hence Tauros, Pupitar and all that jazz should have PHYSICAL ATTACKS.

Your team isn't very good for the 3rd gym. It is a fighting gym, so no rock or ground types, eliminating Pupitar. Normals aren't good so take out Taurus. Eliminate your Baraboach for Growlthite, Scyther, and Electabuzz. You also could do something easy and catch a Staravia and train it.

v-gamer answered:

You cheated to get the pokemon, so why are you asking this?
Just cheat to get a level 34 Staraptor. Use Aerial Ace on Meditite and Machoke, and use Close Combat and Aerial Ace on Lucario.

Your team is horrible. Why is Tauros your strongest pokemon? I'm not even going to go over this... Just cheat to get a level 34 Staraptor with Aerial Ace and Close Combat, or you can actually do it yourself.

ChaosBug7 answered:

Wow, how can you not beat the third Gym by cheating and getting these rare Pokemon? Tauros is too special heavy. Teach him Normal attacks and some more Physical based attacks. Growlithe is good, but if you are cheating, shouldn't you have a fire stone? Use it to get Arcanine. Scyther needs a bug move, but he should be fine. Barboach is ok and so is Pupitar. Electabuzz is also good. Raise them naturally by battling with them in the wild or better yet, in the Gym. If you really want to handicap your team, take Scyther, Growlithe, and Electabuzz. Use Scyther's Aerial ace to make short work out of Machoke and Meditite. Growlithe is for Lucario, but that Bone Rush can tear through Growlithe. This is why I suggested Electabuzz, he is quick, powerful and can use Brick Break. Bone Rush can be a problem, but if your Electabuzz is quick, he should do good damage. His Psychic is also useful in tearing Machoke to pieces. If you are having too many problems, build up and bring items with you.
