Golden Razz Berry Blissey counter?

This guy in my town is infamous for planting a Blissey and spamming Golden Razz Berries whenever it gets too low, I've sunken at least half an hour at most tying to tire him out but to no prevail.

Are there any specific counters that can kill a Blissey faster than berries will allow or are goldies just fundamentally broken?

Fundamentally broken.

I remember one of my friends suggesting there be a limit to how many you can jam down a Pokemon's throat before you can't anymore until the day after.

Personally, i'd at least make it so it'd make them full for 30 minutes after eating just one as if they just ate 10 standard Razzes.

Technically, a full team of perfect maxed Machamps should be able to use up more than 10 GRBs per 30 minutes, which is the limit per account, but many players have multiple accounts (which is what makes GRBs fundamentally broken).

Lol. You don't even nearly need a full team of perfect maxed Machamps, that team was able to do something like 23-24min to force kick Blissey before the effectiveness change and rebalance. After the changes I'm pretty sure you can do it with level 30 Machamps, assuming a decent phone.

If he’s working on getting gold in that gym just let him and he’ll move on

That's the thing, most if not all players in my area know each other's faces, this guy is like a ghost, probably a drive-by defender, so i can't just ask him, plus he's been a regular on this particular gym for a whole year, if he hasn't gotten gold already i'd be surprised, sometimes i can take him out, sometimes he's watching his phone like a hawk.

I really do not understand why someone would want to hold a gym for long periods of time. "Get your coins and get out" is the real mantra to live by.

It might be worth it to see if you can enlist other people in your area to force this player out of the gym. Make it a part of the agenda for whatever group you're in/can find until he or she learns better. Even a smaller town like mine has a fairly robust FB group for fans of the game, there might be one for yours.

There's a medal for gym defense hours. That's already enough incentive for some people.

There is a glitch which requires two players though... If you can coordinate that, you could kick him out.

With 3 accounts:
Enter battle as 3, get it below 20% health. 2 people leave.
Enter as 2, get it below 20% health, 1 leaves.
Enter as 1.

Then all 3 battles kill it at the same time. Immediately kicks out of gym.

If you only have 2 people, you can win the first battle, then kill 2 at the same time to kick it out. As long as he doesn't golden-razz after each loss, it will work (and if he golden after only 1 loss, he should reach the 10 limit quickly).

Also, be sure to not battle other pokemon around him. You don't want him to get the low motivation notification on his phone with time to react. Knock out everyone before him, then knock out just him, then move on. Don't want to waste time fighting other pokemon in between.

I don't understand what the problem is. He can be fed at most 10 berries in 30 mins. If you just focus on attacking him only, you can kill him in under 30 mins, even if he feeds his Blissy berries after every two attacks. I've done this over a hundred times.

I really laugh when I read posts like this. Here, players like these are everywhere, and 30 minutes is nothing much. I’ve had 3 hour long battles

Machamp, Hariyama and Breloom at level 30 and with C/DP should be easily good enough for forcing out Blissey through 10 golden razzes.

Looking at pokebattler sims, even level 30 MM Metagross dealing neutral damage should be good enough, it kills level 40 Blissey about as fast as level 40 Machamp used to.

GRBs are a limited resource whilst revives and potions are ubiquitous if you are camping a gym. Just exhaust his berry stock of you can't outperform him within the 30 minute-10 berry limit or of you think he is using multiaccounts to overcome the limit. Even I know when to give up on defending after the 40th GRB fed...
