Not at all. In HGSS the grass below Blackthorn is literally HALF of the level you want to grind to. wtf?
I beat Clair easily in crystal, like first try, first battle, but in heart-gold and soul-silver I only managed to beat her by grinding a jynx to like level 36 where she can OHKO all of the dragonair, and using paratuation (swagger and attract) on forretres for gyarados, and then actually teaching Jynx the useless flash so that it can make Kingdra hit very rarely thanks to Jynx's speed and ability to survive a hydro pump at a fairly low level. Also using a couple X items on vileplume helped once kingdra started hitting stuff again.
That's how hard she is, making you resort to dickish moves like that.
Broken stuff at that point in the game in heartgold does not exist. Unless, like me, you decided to grind up 16 levels-8 levels per all 6 pokemon to manage her, you are stuffed. Last gym leader, mind that there is only an under-leveled route and a cave between them. 9 levels. And then, you get sent over to rocket executives, and they are 11-9 levels below Clair. (nintendo logic). And then you get to the leader of team rocket... WTF LEVEL 38!?
Yeah, there is already like an 8 level skip there, and then you have 3 more levels randomly for Clair. Seriously, tell me how it makes sense.
After taking out gyarados (because dragon rage) the best tactic is walling through Clair. No gym leader should have to make you do that.
