Why not using an Eevee and take it at the first line ?
Using some interesting defensive attacks, it should be useful
Eevee @ BrightPowder
Swagger
Double Team
Reflect
baton Pass
Begin with Swagger and re-use it each time the ennemy is no more confused
Use double team 6 times and then reflect
Finally, Swagger if necessary and baton pass

> Psychic
> Morning Sun
> Reflect or Charm
> Calm Mind

> Surf
> Ice Beam
> Bite
> Hidden Power

> OK, I know what you're thinking: "Hidden Power?! WTF! Have you gone

>
> Flareon:
> Flamethrower
> Shadow Ball
> Swift
> ????
>
> Vaporeon:
> Surf
> Ice Beam
> Rest
> Sleep Talk
>
> Jolteon:
> Thunderbolt
> Pin Missile
> Double Kick
> Toxic
>
> Espeon:
> Psychic
> Morning Sun
> Reflect or Charm
> Calm Mind
>
> Umbreon:
> Toxic
> Moonlight
> Double Team
> Mean Look
>
> Vaporeon 2:
> Surf
> Ice Beam
> Bite
> Hidden Power
>
> Try it out and have fun!
