Answer 1

/--------------------------------------------------------------------------\
|Sydney (Elite Four I) |
| |
|Pokemon: |
|Mightyena: Dark (Level 46) |
|Shrifty: Grass (Level 48) |
|Cacturne: Grass (Level 48) |
|Sharpedo: Water (Level 48) |
|Absol: Dark (Level 49) |
|Recommended types: Fire, Electric |
| |
|For the past two Pokemon sets, the first of the Elite Four has always been|
|easy, and of course this one is easy too. You should have a good fire-type|
|prepared by now, and you should've gone through the whole game battling |
|with an electric type. For the two Dark Pokemon, I really don't have any |
|super strategies, except for use your most powerful attacks against them. |
|Absol knows Swords Dance, which sharply raises his attack, so you'll want |
|to quickly get rid of him so he doesn't go all out on you using Slash. |
|You'll want to eliminate Cacturn IMMIDIATELY, because he knows Leech Seed,|
|and that lasts the whole battle or until you switch Pokemon. Sydney seems |
|to like Swagger a lot, since Mightyena, Shrifty, and Sharpedo all have it.|
|You'll only want to use your electric Pokemon for Sharpedo, unless you |
|have electric moves that can easily hurt dark Pokemon. |

|Phoebe (Elite Four II) |
| |
|Pokemon: |
|Dusclops: Ghost (Level 48) |
|Banette: Ghost (Level 49) |
|Banette: Ghost (Level 49) |
|Sableye: Ghost (Level 50) |
|Dusclops: Ghost (Level 51) |
|Recommended types: Psychic. Lots of Psychic. |
| |
|Well, Jason and I haven't really been telling you to constantly use a |
|Psychic Pokemon throughout the FAQ, but this is the one time where you |
|need one the most. Ghosts are seriously damaged by Psychic types, and |
|you'll have an EXTREMELY easy time with this battle if you use one. If you|
|don't have a Psychic Pokemon, then don't worry. You can still beat Phoebe,|
|but it will be a bit tougher. You'll need to use your Fire Pokemon for |
|this, but if your Fire Pokemon has moves that are limited in PP, then |
|you'll want to use a Pokemon that's an Electric or Water type. Don't use |
|your Ice Pokemon, since you'll be using the Ice moves a lot during the |
|final Elite Four battle. Okay, there are two major moves that are concerns|
|here: Confuse Ray and Toxic. Both Dusclops' have Confuse Ray, and Banette |
|has Toxic. When those Pokemon are brought out, you'll want to make sure to|
|get them off the screen as quickly as possible. Sableye also knows |
|Attract, and she's a female which means that pretty much all of your |
|Pokemon are going to be attracted to her. I don't think the legendary |
|Pokemon have genders, so you should bring whichever one of them you have |
|out when Sableye is brought out. |

|Glacia (Elite Four III) |
| |
|Pokemon: |
|Glalie: Ice (Level 50) |
|Sealio: Water (Level 50) |
|Sealio: Water (Level 52) |
|Glalie: Ice (Level 52) |
|Walrein: Water (Level 53) |
|Recommended types: Fire, Electric |
| |
|You should definitely have some good, high level Fire and Electric Pokemon|
|by now, so this battle should be a freaking piece of cake. Glacia will |
|start out with the level fifty Glalie, which you can wipe out easily using|
|a fire move. Switch to your Electric Pokemon next, because she'll bring |
|out both her Sealios. The Sealios will probaby use Hail if your electric |
|move doesn't wipe them out in one hit, but Hail isn't that big of a deal. |
|Once they're both gone, another Glalie will be brought out again. Another |
|blast from a Fire-type should easily finish it off. Now Walrein is the |
|best Pokemon Glacia has, and it knows two very dangerous moves: Blizzard |
|and Sheer Cold. Blizzard has a big chance of freezing you, while causing |
|massive damage. And then Sheer Cold is a one-hit KO move. That means that |
|it doesn't have great accuracy, but it still will eventually hit, so |
|you'll want to make sure to take out Walrein in as few hits as possible. |

|Drake (Elite Four IV) |
| |
|Pokemon: |
|Shellgon: Dragon (Level 53) |
|Flygon: Dragon (Level 53) |
|Flygon: Dragon (Level 53) |
|Altaria: Dragon (Level 54) |
|Salamence: Dragon (Level 55) |
|Recommended types: Real big ****load of Ice |
| |
|If you don't have Ice Pokemon, you're in MAJOR trouble. Dragons, being the|
|best type of Pokemon there is, are very resistant to almost anything else |
|except for ice. If you are playing Sapphire, then Kyogure came with Ice |
|Beam, which is perfect for this battle (just make sure you've raised him |
|to at least level fifty). If you don't, then any other Ice Pokemon who is |
|at least level fifty can easily defeat ALL of these guys in one hit. |
|You seriously don't even have to worry about anybody being hit once. |
|However, some of the Dragons have great speed, so they'll be able to move |
|faster than you. The Flygons will cast Sandstorm, but that, like Hail, |
|shouldn't be that big of a deal. Dragonbreath is a powerful technique, but|
|it isn't so powerful that it'll one-hit KO you. Again, bringing along an |
|Ice Pokemon guarantees a win for this battle, so you have nothing to worry|
|about. |
\--------------------------------------------------------------------------/

Now check to see if all of your Pokemon are at full health, and continue
forward up the MASSIVE staricase. When you get to the top you'll find the
Champion who is...

|Steven |
| |
|Pokemon: |
|Skarmony: Steel (Level 57) |
|Armaldo: Rock (Level 56) |
|Metagross: Psychic (Level 58) |
|Cradily: Grass (Level 56) |
|Claydol: Ground (?) (Level 55) |
|Aggron: Ground (Level 56) |
|Recommended types: Fire, Ice, Fighting, Ground |
| |
|Well, here's the final showdown, and c'mon, you knew it was going to be |
|Steven didn't you? He played sorta the same role that Lance did in |
|Gold/Silver, which shoulda tipped you off. Anyway, this can be a tough |
|battle, since Steven uses five different types of Pokemon. That means your|
|going to have to have a wide variety of Pokemon types also, if you hope to|
|previal. Skarmony knows Toxic, but a single blast from a Fire-type should |
|take him out in a single hit, so you shouldn't have to worry about getting|
|poisoned. Armaldo knows Water Pulese, but Earthquake can do wonders |
|agianst him. Metagross is Steven's toughest Pokemon, and it knows some |
|REALLY powerful moves: Psychic, Meteor Mash, Earthquake, and Hyper Beam. |
|Fortunatelly, it is damaged easily by Ground moves, like Earthquake. |
|You'll want to use your fighting moves on the ground Pokemon. If you have |
|Blaziken, you can teach it Flamethrower, Earthquake, and Sky Uppercut, |
|which are fire, ground, and fighting moves. That makes the battle a lot |
|easier if some of your Pokemon have two of the recommended types in them. |
|Just remember to heal when necessary, and never let your Pokemon get too |
|far down in the red zone, and you should win this battle after a long |
|period of exchanging blows. |

Answer 2

i'm perplexed as on your question so i will respond to it both techniques it ought to correctly be interpreted. when you're debating between Ruby and Emerald like the identify says, the better determination ought to be to verify on Emeral because there are better Pokemon accessible, and the portraits are better. also, a characteristic lengthy previous considering that Crystal, the Pokemon flow back rather of merely status there at the same time as in conflict. also, Emerald has the skill to apply a instantaneous GBA adapter to play with your friends wirelessly. finally, Emerald enables the prospect to seize all 3 major mythical pokemon; Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza. you could also seize the different 3; Regice, Regirock, and Registeel. when you're debating between Diamond and Ruby, choose Diamond yet on condition that you've A NINTENDO DS. this may merely be performed on a DS, so once you've one, this pastime is definately better. This pastime ought to have better interactive and three-d effective factors, instantaneous trading without adapter, better new pokemon, plus the recent lengendaries and the ablilty to commerce from Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, or Pearl. (which signifies that you may have all the Pokemon in Ruby, and the recent ones) And, once you've Pokemon Ranger, you could get the "mysterious" Manaphy on the top, and commerce it on your Diamond. i wish this helped you out with your determination.

Answer 3

First thing you'll want to try is to raise your Pokemon a little more. Victory Road is a good place because you'll battle Pokemon with EV's for defense, speed, attack, and HP, which should balance your team out pretty well.

Also, try to raise Pokemon to pick on the weaknesses of the Elite Four: Ice-Type to take on Drake and his Dragon-type, a Ghost or Dark type to tackle Phoebe and her Ghost-type, etc. If it comes down to it, try raising Pokemon that are at least strong against the type you'll face and teach them moves that can take advantage of the Elite Four's weaknesses.

Balancing is the best way to go--I beat the Elite Four quite handily my first time by raising Pokemon with moves that could attack opponents that would take advantage of my Pokemon weaknesses. For example, I taught my Gyarados Earthquake so it could take on any Electric-type.

Answer 4

Heh, I had all 3 of the legendary pokemon too; I just reset it to play again.

My advice: level up more. Any pokemon your familiar with that can't win the battle usually just needs to be leveled up a bit more. Just be patient and battle more before you take them on again. Other than that-game shark. But I don't recomend cheating, it takes the fun away from the gaming experience.

Answer 5

Good luck, I haven't been able to either. You should get that castform off your team though, or go train it with some similar-leveled pokemon. That's what I do; unless yours is supremely gifted. Mine's a tard -_-

Answer 6

first take out cast form and bring a thunder pokemon train all of them to level 60 make sure you buy plenty of full restores and revives and make sure to make a strategy the best thunder poke mon to bring in is pikachu or electrike
