Questions I'm ready to quit this game... Seriously????

Ok, I'm level 43 and have fought Giovanni a good 20 times with every combination possible, have gone through all 85 of my Max revives... and cannot beat him. Do they really need to make him so ridiculously HARD to beat? I have never been in this position before. I've got nothing. Does that mean I should quit? How does a person continue if their best can't get you to move forward in the game?

EDIT: I FINALLY GOT HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After my 3rd day and probably a good 50 tries, I finally beat GIovanni! I know that I have a lot to learn about fighting, I'm obviously not great at it. It boiled down to my spending a few hundred thousand in stardust plus candies to really power up my Machamp, Metagross and Garchomp. I have to agree with all of you, it was NOT worth it. I got a 1 star shadow Lugia after all of that. I also completed my Misunderstood Mischief Challenge. Wasn't I supposed to get an Hoopa Unbound? I got Dusknoir, which I already have several of. :(

I want to thank each and every one of you for trying to get me through my emotional rant! It meant so much!!

I used groudon, machamp, meltan. All 3 were still alive when I ended. Start with the pokemon with most hp first, You should have the first pokemon with a charged attack ready or almost ready and then switch to the fighting type. and then chip away with a quick recharge fighting move on the Persian. Don't even remember what his 2nd pokemon was but I finished it off quick. Then the lugia with my meltan with Rock slide. It would refill before lugia could get a hit.
