What if instead of types, the E4 had their own strategies? Teams with high HP, or speed, attack, defence...

Different battle styles would be cool. Doubles, rotations, etc.
Oooooooooh!

A strategically designed Elite 4 and Champion would be amazing to have. Now that would be a pretty fun Elite 4 to go up against, each with their own opinions and reasons as to why they specialize in the area of their choice. It could be annoying too, but a welcomed challenge nonetheless. I can see one of them mastering the art of Attack, the other Special Attack, another one could be Speed, and then there's the fourth member who can specialize in both Defense and Sp. Defense with HP included.

Meanwhile I could see the Champion having a well balanced, well put together and competitive team of high leveled Pokémon.

They could keep the specialized typing if they wanted to, but with an idea like this, I'd rather the Pokémon come at random so the different stat strategies can work out better.

True but since it is the champion it'd be great to see him/her pull it off with a weaker type like Normal because there are too many Dragon champions.

I'd like to see a Pokemon League where you face random opponents that get harder with each win, so it simulates a tournament, and then after that, you can hunt down the Elite Four, and battle them.

I'd like to see either a Grass, Water, Fire, and Normal E4 with a mixed Champ. or a Poison, Rock, Ground, and a steel or flying E4 with a mix champ

Elite 4 and Tournament

A couple of things for the Elite 4 I thought might be interesting or was wondering:

1) What types would you like the Elite 4 members to be? Personally I would want Electric, Grass, Water and Steel since none of these types have been the main types of Elite 4 members yet.

2) This next idea seems to vary in opinion but what about after you get your 8 badges instead of vsing the Elite 4 right after you have to win a tournament first like the shows, and the fact that the game is in 3D should make this a lot more enjoyable, plus all your opponents will be characters you met throughout the game including your Rival as the probable opponent for the championship match. This would then lead to after you won the tournament the next part of the game would be to vs the Elite 4 and Region Champion to become the ultimate champion of the game.

Would be better then the normal cliche plus I don't mind a fire elite four member with a Charizard and magmar

Offence oriented, defence oriented, speed oriented and status ailment oriented. I think that'd be cool...

The four elite four are getting to a sort of pattern. So this generation won't include a Dark elite four but may include a Psychic Elite four.

Any order I guess...
1 - Psychic
2 - Ice
3 - Dragon
4 - Normal

I hope that they have a champion with 6 offensive threats, or a stall team. That would be better than the other champions IMO, there would be more challenge with either option. I hope they don't give the champion just 1 good 'mon like always

A stall team would be tiring. For a champion you want them to have a quick battle where they beat you easily, not stall you out to death, otherwise the whole thing of becoming a champion might be less appealing. ;( In my opinion though, at least.

i want the E4 to have Normal type Ground type Fire type and the last one to have dragon type and the champion should have Bug/Steel type pokemon if they are planning to make more bug/steel types and their levels should be around 60-70 that will be fun since i like when pokemon is hardcore

That's kind of a random typing choice, though. Ground and Fire maybe with Steel and Fighting, sure, but normal and everything else just seems really strange. I guess it wouldn't seem as strange if normal wasn't there but I don't really see normal mons as the Pokemon of champions lmao (well not even champions, but... great players in-game w/e).

i think the elite four needs to be steel,flying,electric, and grass, and the champion needs to be your long lost older brother, that wondered away and gotten lost one day and hasnt been heard from till you battle him as champion

Well, it would be nice if they sold elixirs and thing like that outside of the E4 building/place they use so you don't use struggle half the time... been there, done that. Not fun. But i don't want a specific type for them. I want them to have all different types. Make it a bit harder. Then again,they could use the champions from former regions and make that the E4.

It would actually be nice for them to use the main Elements, so Grass > Water > Fire > Flying and then the Champion specialising in either A) Multiple Types B) A type that has not yet been used by a Champion i.e Electric.

I definitely want the Champion to remain to be diverse in pokemon~ As for the E4, I'd like them to use types that you wouldn't see as part of a E4 normally - like Water, Normal, Steel, and so on. Although it'd be nice if they were diverse like the champion too.

Personally, I liked Gen IV's E4 best.
The types i'm looking forward to are--
1) Rock,
2) Grass,
3) Electric,
4) Flying.

Others are just too mainstream!
