Use Fighting-Type Moves

Irida's team will consist of an Eevee and their evolutions. This works to the players advantage as using Fighting-Type Moves can quickly incapacitate her team.

Cyndaquil is a great starter against Irida's team, especially with their resistance to Ice-Type moves. Later on, once they become Typhlosion, they will also gain the benefit of remaining unaffected against Normal Type Moves.

Avoid using Pokemon Weak to Ice-Type Moves

With Glaceon being her strongest Pokemon, you'll have a difficult time if your team can't handle moves like Ice Beam. So pick Pokemon that are resistant to their attacks!

Take Glaceon Down Quickly

Given that Glaceon may be tough to handle, free up some action economy by taking down the other Pokemon or using a status effect like Paralyze to keep Glaceon out of the fight.

Once the weaker Pokemon are taken cared of, you'll have a much easier time dealing with Glaceon!
