Elite Four

[stevenhazelwood24]

I'm training a team for the E4 (in Black) and wanted an opinion. So far it is:

Scraggy level 35 (will evolve to Scrafty for total ownage)
Tornadus lvl 42
Krookodile level 44
Emboar level 62
Haxorus level 48
Mienshao level 48

I was thinking of possibly switching Haxorus for my level 49 Terrakion?

Ta very muchly :)

Level dem pokes up! The elite used 56's and up!

[stevenhazelwood24]

I know that! Just want an opinion as to who to use though XD I thought they were about 48 and up anyway?

you want 4 fighting type Pokmemon that a lot Mienshao,terrakion,scrafty and emboar you are better change some and get water,grass or psychic pokemon you will be instantany beat by Iris archeops and the powerful pokemon in the elite four is Haxorous lvl 63 from Iris

[stevenhazelwood24]

It's Black 1, not 2 that I'm playing. What pokemon would you suggest?

[Grey Fullbuster]

oh ok Gothitelle or Beheeyem for psychic pokemon Liligant with Own tempo with the move Petal Dance it will never be confused or leavanny is a good attacker with 103 with base power for Grass pokemon for water pokemon Seismitoad with swift swin will be good but carracosta will be better with a nature that boost the Defense and lower the speed

My friend... You first can get rid of Mienshao... Terrible hit taker and replace it with Terrakion. Rock comes in handy. And as said above get a Carracosta (Aqua Jet, Surf, Rock Slide, Shell Smash. What you've gotta do, is a add either a water or rock gem, then use shell smash. This will give either Surf or Rock Slide 4x the power and usually causes an OHKO. Even after the Gem has gone you will still have at least 2x the power on the rest of your moves.)

Handy Hint: Combine the Carracosta's Shell Smash and Water Gem, with a Simple Beam from another Pokemon to do 8x the damage in double battles!

Hi, thanks for the replies, I gave it a go last night (switched Haxorus for my lvl 41 Chandelure) and owned Grimsley and Marshal. Mostly thanks to Mienshao and Emboar. I'll get a Tirtougoua (however its spelt) and train it :).

Maybe replace Chandelure as I quite like Mienshao (even though it can get battered easily) XD

[stevenhazelwood24]

Thanks everyone for your input, just defeated the elite 4 and my team finished as follows:

Emboar 63
Krookodile 45
Carracosta 40
Keldeo 45
Tornadus 44
Haxorus 48

Now to beat Alder!!

[stevenhazelwood24]

I did use Mienshao against Marshal and Grimsley and swapped in Haxorus for a mix :)

[stevenhazelwood24]

Update: Captured Reshiram, replaced Haxorus, beat N and Ghetsis on first attempt each.

Boo yah.

[stevenhazelwood24]

I did ditch Carracosta for Mienshao though for the final battles :)

[The Kiwi Dragon]

Last thing though... The rest of the team need raising... Emboar is just heavy on the level charts...

[stevenhazelwood24]

I know XD i think I used most of the rare candies on him

Just get a Zoroark who knows Night Daze, Aerial Ace, Grass Knot and Focus Blast.

Night Daze will completely take care of the Ghost and Psychic elite four ladies, Focus blast will get rid of the dark, and aerial ace will get rid of the Fighting.

Good luck with the Champion, though.
