He uses a very balanced team, incorporating many different elemental types as well as some strong moves. Staying one step ahead the whole game, it seems your rival has gone and beaten the Elite Four before you could.

Ice-type moves are very effective in this battle, hitting everything on his team for a good amount of damage. Another favourite move of his is Outrage, which is resisted by only the Steel-type. However, there is a silver lining – Hyper Beam forces the user to miss its following turn so it can recharge. All of his Pokemon use the very powerful move Hyper Beam, which can easily wipe out a Pokemon not resistant to it. Lance is the Dragon-type master of the Elite Four, and not a foe to be trifled with. A tip: you can use the Poke Flute in battle to awaken sleeping Pokemon. Best to keep a few Full Heals in your arsenal to muck up this very annoying tactic.

Like Koga, she uses a combination of the sleep, poison, and confusion techniques to wittle your monsters down. Though thematically Agatha is a Ghost-type master, in this match it is more apt to say her speciality lies with Poison-types, since its the only type her entire team shares. Pokemon like Gengar or Weezing thrive in this match since Fighting-type attacks are ineffective and Ground-type attacks miss due to Levitate. His team launches a strong offensive using three attack types with great coverage – Rock, Fighting, and Ground. The master of Fighting-type Pokemon, Bruno, also employs the power of the Rock-type Onix. Rock-type moves are ideal here since the obvious choice of Fire will only hurt Jynx for super-effective damage. Hail lasts five turns and will hit all non-Ice-types. Her strategy uses a mixture of powerful attacks and applying residual damage in the form of Hail and Spikes. Lorelei uses a mixture of Ice-type and Water-type Pokemon. This league boasts a knockout style where you battle the trainers back to back, with only a break in between to walk to the next room – so while you can use healing items in between battles, you cannot go back to the Pokemon Center. High atop the Indigo Plateau, the Elite Four of Kanto await the challenge of any trainer bold enough to collect all eight badges.
