Why is this thing so fucking hard?
It moves faster than everything on my team, one-shots nearly all of them with Play Rough, I finally get a Thunder Wave off and it's holding a Lum Berry, its partner Haunter's Hypnosis seems to work 100% of the time.
I only finally won after Fire Fang's 10% chance of burning raped its Attack.
It's like these challenges are challenging or something
Just get a ghost type lmao. You can even get Gengar way before this fight.
I T-waved it. Then T-waved it again. Then OHKOd it with Decidium Z

It's mostly due to its ability Disguise. The other things you listed are annoying for sure, but since Disguise basically takes away your first attacking move against it, it allows it free reign to do what it likes like summoning Haunters.

Answered your own question, m8.
Gamefreak's idea of "difficulty" in gen 7 was making the new Pokemon slow as fuck to pretty much guarantee you will ALWAYS attack last. And since there's the garbage SOS feature you even get hit twice before you can make a single move.
