After numerous tries and being unlucky. I finally managed to be on the 42nd win streak again. Things can go very wrong at this point and one wrong move or one wrong Pokémon can end my streak at any time.

I've been looking at the Battle Tower trainers list from PsyPokes, which helps alot but I can still get screwed up from the foe's Pokémon moving first or if I lead with the wrong Pokémon.

Now even if I do manage to survive 48 battles, I'm really scared of Palmer and as I mentioned, one wrong move or Pokémon lead can screw me over.

Any advice on which Pokémon I should lead with from the 43nd battle streak-Palmer and what to do or not to do during my battle streak and Palmer?

This is in Platinum btw.
