I just keep my distance, then when he does the water beam, I run in, hit his RIGHT leg (to avoid the tail whip) then back off and wait for my next chance. The only time the hip check can get me is when there isn't enough room to get away, like I said before. Other than that, it only hits me when I slip up (ex.: misjudge the distance it can go).
