Gym Leader #5: Norman - Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

Gym Leader #5: Norman - Normal

Norman has three Pokemon; Slaking, Vigoroth & Slaking. His gym is interesting; you will get to choice who you get to fight, each room as one trainer in it with one Pokemon. But in the battle, they will use an item: X Speed, X Accuracy, X Defence, Super Potion, Dire Hit, etc. Battle your way though the rooms to make it to Norman's room.

Slaking

Level: 28

Type: Normal

Ability: Truant

Attacks: Retaliate, Yawn, Feint Attack& Encore

Weakness: Fighting

Strategy: Slaking will be loathing around every other turn, meaning he won't be able to attack when his is loathing. I recommend have a Pokemon with Protect, Detect or Spiky Shield so you can just attack it when it loathing around and avoid being attacked.

Vigoroth

Level: 28
Type: Normal
Ability: Vital Spirit
Attacks: Encore, Feint Attack, Retaliate & Fury Swipes
Weakness: Fighting
Strategy: You will more than likely be locked into your first attack as Vigoroth usually uses Encore on it's first turn, keep that in mind. A solid Fighting-Type Attack will get rid of it quickly.

Slaking

Level: 30
Type: Normal
Ability: Truant
Attacks: Retaliate, Feint Attack, Swagger & Chip Away
Weakness: Fighting
Strategy: Slaking will be loathing around every other turn, meaning he won't be able to attack when his is loathing. I recommend have a Pokemon with Protect, Detect or Spiky Shield so you can just attack it when it loathing around and avoid being attacked.

Once you defeat Norman you will get TM 67 Retaliate and the Balance Badge.
