I think Plessy's tail swipe is a lot more manageable underwater since you could dodge up or down. Almost never get hit by it when I'm underwater. But then, there's his sweeping beam which takes about 70% out of my HP (S.Uragaan = -25 water resistance). XD

And as for evading up or down, I usually hold forward or back then evade right after an attack. This usually works when the camera is right behind the character (hunter is facing directly away from camera).
