Hazards
As the name of this Side Mission implies, you will want to avoid the traps and environmental hazards during this fight. It's recommended to use Special Attackers who can fight at range so that they don't need to approach Pie's Pokemon and come in contact with her traps.

Camerupt is a Great Pokemon for this Fight

Mega Camerupt
Pie's team are all weak to Ground-type attacks, which makes Camerupt and its Mega form an amazing counter. They naturally learn Earth Power, which lets them hit her entire team for super effective damage from afar.
