This team strategy requires a dedicated team with Espathra providing Screen Support and Lumina Crash to lower Blastoise's Sp. Def.
With Espthra backing it up, Gastrodon can focus on attacking with its Sp. Atk being raised thanks to Storm Drain proccing from Hydro Pump.

Belly Drum
・ Drain Punch ・ Low Kick ・ Haze ・Immunity to Water Type moves thanks to Water Absorb. ・Use Haze when Blastoise uses Iron Defense. ・Hold a Scope Lens to get more crits, bypassing Blastoise's Defense buffs. |
These solo counter Pokemon all have great typings that allow them to resist Blastoise' key STAB moves, while also dealing massive damage with their own STAB attacks.
They also have their own quirks and gimmicks against Blastoise's high Special Attack and its ability to set up Snow.
