James
James is a trainer you can battle in Pokémon Dusk Reborn.
Level: between 0.9x and 1x the level of the strongest Pokémon on your active team. For example, with a level 1,000 Pokémon on your team, the strongest Pokémon on James's team is level 1,000. Its HP is worked out from that level, so a higher multiplier means a longer fight, not only harder hits.

Planning a counter
- Types that hit the team hard: Psychic hits 2 of 3, Ground hits 2 of 3 for double damage or more.
- Types that take the least from its moves: out of 11 damaging moves on the team: Ghost (immune to 6 and resists 2, none hit for double); Steel (immune to 1 and resists 9, but 1 hits for double); Fairy (immune to 1 and resists 2, but 1 hits for double).
Worked out from the type chart and the moves listed above, stacked the way the battle engine does it. It does not account for abilities, items or the level gap.
