Which Elite 4 did you have the most trouble with?
Ruby/Sapphire's, FireRed/LeafGreen, or Emerald's?

To be honest, I didn't think any of them were that hard, but the hardest is probably FR/LG.

I have to agree with Shaymin. None of them were that difficult...but I'll be the odd one out and say Emerald, just because of the team I had last time I beat the game.

The fact that on FR/LG you had legendaries that wouldn't of helped you as much as with kyogre or groudon. Seriously, Sapphire's elite 4 had the easiest pokemon to beat with kyogre. All you need is one electric move 2 water moves and 1 ice move.

Emerald - because I forgot about the last champion, Steve, saved the game when Rayquaza had 1/2 hp and... I had to battle when the rest of my Pokemon team fainted! I was so fumed -_- I felt so steamed up and dumb

None of them are really that hard if you bring lots of potions and revives. I can beat any pokemon league without even training beforehand. Id have to say FR/LG is the hardest though.

I must say, I found Emerald's E4 to be easy, becuase you could just pwn with Rayquaza.

but I have to say that I found R/S's hardest, merely because I was unable to acquire the Pokemon I wanted.

Ruby was actually super hard for me, the rest were easy O_o; I don't know why. Maybe it just seemed harder because I was younger and just went head in and didn't think too much. ...Yeah, that was probably it =3 But I thought FR/LG weren't too bad once you got your Pokemon at the right levels.

Leafgreen, for sure.

When I tried out a Hoeen game, I went to the championship with 3 level 100 pokemon, so it was easy (: but... It did take me forever to get those pokemon ): I think by the time I had beaten the game I was running on 450 hours played.

None of them are actually tricky unless you make it difficult for yourself.

Current Team:
Level 91 Pikachu (Serious Nature, only one I could find)
- Thunderbolt
- Thunder
- Brick Break
- Double Edge

I honestly think I should evolve it, because I'm having trouble even getting past Bruno.

FR/LG was the hardest.

When I faced Gary before entering Victory Road I saw how weak he was and thought the rest would be so easy. I was wrong. :(

I feel very contrary saying that I didn't find FR/LG elite four much of a problem. :/ I actually found the elite four for R/S/E difficult. Possibly because my pokemon were rather underleveled, so it felt like a slog when I was leveling them up in Victory Road.
