Yah hypnosis is all about getting lucky, and having the opponent stay asleep long enough to KO it is even better, but most of my opponents wake up the turn after I put them asleep, but yah I have really hard time with dragon types on my fire team, but your starmie and alakazam are still a big problem fer me. You should battle Morningsun the dark gym leader, I think you will do better than I did on him.
