What level should my Oshawott be before fighting the 8th Gym?
I’m doing an Oshawott solo run and right now he’s level 64. His nature is Quiet, and I believe he’s maxed out in Attack and Sp. Attack EVs. His moves are Revenge, Return, Surf, and X-Scissor.
Last time I challenged the gym was half a year ago and it didn’t go well. I’m currently grinding. Any recommendations for Ice type TMs and the location would be cool, too

In Pokemon Black and White the eight gym will be a Dragon type gym facing Iris(White)/Drayden(Black).However, both of them have same Pokémon.
They will have
Fraxure(Lv.41)Druddigon(Lv.41)Haxorus(Lv.43)
Also both will have the movesets too.Every mon has Dragon Tail, a Dark-Type move (Assurance/Night Slash), Fraxure will only have two dragon type move (Dragon rage including Dragon Tail).
With an ice type move, it will be easy to handle this Gym. Lv.65 will be perfect with Quiet Nature and MAX SpA.
TM Blizzard is useful and easy to get but its accuracy is a concern. You can Blizzard for best results.Blizzard can be obtained in the Icirrus city for 70000 Pokedollars.
So,
Oshawott @AnythingLevel:65Quiet natureAbility: Torrent-X-Scizzor-Revenge-Blizzard-Surf
This set can clear the Gym easily.
Some calculation,
Lvl 65 252+ SpA Oshawott Blizzard vs. Lvl 41 0 HP / 4 SpD Eviolite Fraxure: 194-230 (165.8 - 196.5%) – guaranteed OHKO
Lvl 65 252+ SpA Oshawott Blizzard vs. Lvl 41 252 HP / 0 SpD Druddigon: 188-222 (123.6 - 146%) – guaranteed OHKO
Lvl 65 252+ SpA Oshawott Blizzard vs. Lvl 43 0 HP / 4 SpD Haxorus: 218-258 (166.4 - 196.9%) – guaranteed OHKO
Hope I Helped
64 sounds like plenty if you just get a bit lucky, but grinding Audinos up to around 70 certainly can’t hurt. You can get TM14 (Blizzard) for 70,000 Pokedollars in Iccirus, so invest and pray you manage to land your attacks. Grab the Eviolite from Castelia City to sponge up the Dragon STAB a bit better, hope the RNG gods are on your side, and you should be able to pull out a victory.
Hope I helped!
