This is a double battle, so spread damage and partner safety matter. Surf is great if your second Pokemon can survive it.

Surf is the obvious button, but remember that it also hits your partner in Gen 3. Pair Surf with a Pokemon that resists Water, has high special bulk, can Protect, or is disposable under your ruleset. Dark moves, Ghost moves, Grass moves, and Water moves are all useful.

Do not bring two Pokemon that both fold to Psychic. If Lunatone or Solrock gets time to set up or spread status, the fight becomes more annoying than its two-Pokemon roster suggests.
