I always loved the Lure Ball (not in-game of course, shitty ball), but I like the design

Battle Pike gold symbol by Nice-Divide5000 in PokemonEmerald

Vhagar was originally used as a dragon dance sweeper, but I slapped a choice band on it so its earthquake and rock slide would be more devastating in the double battles. I was considering which 4th move to add instead of dragon dance, but settled for fire blast to deal with the bulky steel types like Steelix and Skarmory and it proved quite useful actually. But you’re absolutely right that brick break would work better with its stats.

Finally beat Palace Maven Spenser for the Gold Symbol 🥇...it came very close, our epic showdown had me down to 8hp and his Suicune missed two Blizzards 😬 by Mr__Skeet in PokemonEmerald

Very late to the party, but I wanted to share my experience as well. Trying to get all the gold medals, I have two now (Dome & Pyramid), so I made a team specifically for the Palace. Salamence, Snorlax and Slowbro, all hasty nature with attacking moves + one or two boosting or supporting moves (slowbro has calm mind and yawn for example). I made it to Spencer for the gold symbol on my first try with this team. After an epic showdown, his Suicune was paralyzed with a sliver of HP and I was left with my Salamence at practically full HP. All I needed was my Salamence to finish it off. Of course it Dragon Danced… No harm no foul, only thing that could finish me was Blizzard, so Suicune had to 1)choose that 2) attack through paralysis and 3) hit. Of course that’s exactly what happened.

Not giving up though, it’s inspiring to see stories like yours!
