I suppose I can only use hydras with sacred troops that have poison resistance?

Don't have to be sacred. And you need poison resistance (100) to survive, because the hydra's poison is very toxic. If you play Serpent Cult, your mages can summon poison-immune critters. Or you can try Poison Ward on 50% resistant lizards warriors, if you find a lizard province. Undead troops is another option.

Or you can use gladiators, if you don't mind paying for troops that'll leave after their first battle.
