Rant here, but it makes no sense at all that this guys pets are level 24 in Outland, where the highest battle pets in the world are level 21. The strats discussed here make that point clearly, where people are going to Pandaria to pick up pets and then leveling them just to have a shot at this guy. He's essentially a roadblock in the logical progression one takes in building their collection and tackling tamers simply because his pets are 2-3 levels higher than they should be for this area.
If you are having issues with this trainer here are a few tips:
1. Reset the fight until he sends Jadefire out first (and best to have an Aquatic Tank like a crab waiting for him).
Why bother? Arcanus casts Amplify Magic (buffs damage), and Jadefire is a beatstick. If Jadefire comes after Arcanus he will be doing ~500-600 damage per hit before strong/weak modifiers. You want Arcanus to be the second pet because Amplify Magic is basically wasted on Netherbite since he spends the turns setting up his defenses.
2. If Netherbite's defenses are frustrating you - use environmental/periodic damage.
I suggest Clockwork Gnome with his Build Turret ability as it is guaranteed to do it's damage regardless of what ability Netherbite uses. Any long term DoTs are effective once on him though.

Description
I've seen the likes of you before. A young, naive tamer that thinks that they deserve victory handed to them on a silver platter. Well no more! I will be your reckoning, {class}. I, Bloodknight Antari of Shadowmoon Valley, await the chance to show you how it feels to be obliterated in battle.
