Indigo Plateau



This is a Poké Center and a Poké Mart. Get all the things you need, pick your best 6 Pokémon, and go though the door at the top to fight the Elite Four, a group of the most powerful trainers ever. All their Pokémon are over Level 50. Hmm....who to choose? They aren't that hard...combo of different pokemon will do just fine because...

1. Every Pokémon in the bosses' inventory will have some weakness against at least one of these. The only one without some weakness is the Alakazam. According to most of the lists in the net, they are weak against ghosts and bugs. Well, ghosts seemed to actually be weak. When facing physics, because their Night Shade doesn't do much while the PSYBEAM/PSYCHIC does super damage in return! And if I put in a bug, it won't be able to handle any other Pokémon except the grass Pokémon, and I don't want to "waste" any of the team members by only letting it fight twice. I thought about using a Venonat, but it will interfere with the other Psychic's Job.

2. These will either be well trained, or will start out at high-levels. Who wouldn't want to train Pikachus and your beginning Pokémon? The legendary pokémon and Mewtwo well already start at levels almost equivalent to the Elite Four's.

3. It is flexible, because there is actually 2 spaces for whatever you want (especially against psychic Pokémon because non of the Pokémon actually works SUPER against them). You can add in a ghost for defense if Bruno's fighters gets rough (they can't TOUCH you. I mean really), you can add in a fighter to pound some heavily-defended Pokémon as hard as you can, add in a Dragon because of their general effective- ness (you will NEVER read "it is not that effective" for a dragon attack), or you can just add in another strong Pokémon from an element in which you are weak (such as a back-up fire Pokémon, or a ground Pokémon). Or, the best of them all, a weak Pokémon you want to train! Just put it at the front of the line, call it after every match, and switch to another Pokémon. This way, it will gain experience for every battle you fight! My Far'fetched gained 25 levels this way in one trip through the ELITE FOUR!
4. Each Pokémon is not wasted. Blastoise: Bruno(2), Lance(1), ???BOSS???(2) Pikachu: Lorelei(5), Agatha(1), ???BOSS???(1) (Told you Pikachu would come in handy. Pikachu handles 8 Pokémon by itself!) Articuno: Lance(4), ???BOSS???(1) Psychic Pkmn: Bruno(3), Agatha(4), ???BOSS??? (1) (8 Pokémon, and psychics are good against just about anything else.) Basically, two of them handle 5 each and the other two handle 8 each. If any of them gets tired (especially the ones who handle 8), you should switch to a backup Pokémon with SUPER damage against their enemies.

Now, the roster. The first, Lorelei has a group of ice Pokémon. (Pikachu can dish out SUPER damage, it can take on all five one-by-one) She starts with a Level 54 Dewgong, secondly a Level 53 Cloyster, then a Level 54 Slowbro. A Jynx (Level 56) follows the battle, and finishes off with a Level 56 Lapras. The second man (Bruno) has rock / fighting Pokémon. To be exact, he starts off with a Level 53 Onix. After that, he switches off to fighting and gets out a Level 55 Hitmonchan and then a Level 55 Hitmonlee. After the fighting duo, he gets a Level 56 Onix and finally his ace card, the Level 58 Machamp. Bring a water and a psychic/ghost Pokémon for this. (I suggest A Blastoise for rocks and a Hypno/Mewtwo for the fighters) The third lady (Agatha) has mind-controllers at her control, kicking off with a Level 56 Gengar. Then, a Level 56 Golbat will try to CONFUSE you into submission. A lighter challenge (Level 55 Haunter) comes in afterwards. You might think she ran out of good Pokémon, but a Level 58 Arbok comes out next, followed by a Level 60 Gengar. (Your Hypno, if you use my plan, will make these fights very easy. Pikachu can also take on the Golbat) Remember, she is on of the only trainers who can call back Pokémon at will. The forth man (Lance) has awesome Dragons to fight you. He said he trained for a long time, no wonder she starts off with a Level 58 Gyrados! A pair of Level 56 Dragonairs follows the fight. A Level 60 Aerodatcytl next (I guess he was at the lab too). Finally, he brings out his long-trained and VERY hard- to-get Level 62 Dragonite! One word... watch out for HYPER BEAM! (Pikachu can beat the Gyrados easily. As for the dragons, use Articuno if you have it. It can go ahead and take on all four. The Aerodactyl is another good target for Blastoise.) After 4 long, hard battles, you will realize that another had already defeated the Elite Four! Who is it? Why.. it is Gary! After he tells you of his ambition, you fight his 6 strong Pokémon with what is left of your six. He starts with a Level 61 Pidgeot, which is easy to defeat. (Another small-fry for Pikachu) Then he calls an Level 59 Alakazam, (pound with everything you got) followed by a Rhydon. (Use the Blastoise to full effect) He finishes off with Pokémon of fire, water, and plant types with them being Level 61, Level 63, and the last being Level 65 (his first pick in the game). His plant choice is Exegguter, his Fire Choice is Arcanine, and his water choice is Gyrados. They will come out in dimuting power order (Water-Fire-Plant. Fire-Plant-Water, or Plant-Fire Water). (Blastoise gets the fire, Pikachu gets the water, and Hypno/Mewtwo for the plant) If you manage to defeat him in this climatic and difficult battle, be prepared for the ending of Pokémon! THE END... or is it?
