    • #1) Rock/Ground specialist
    #2) Bug/Poison specialist
    #3) Fire/Steel specialist
    #4) Water/Ice specialist
    Champ: Psychic/Dark/Light specialist. :P

    We know from tradition that at least one of them will be training the region's pseudo-legendary and that their highest-levelled pokemon will progress as such [i, i+2, i+4, i+6, i+9] where i is the initial E4 member's highest-leveled pokemon's level.

    A tournament-style Elite Four would be a nice change of pace, but it would make it harder to use the League as a training opportunity, since your opponent would essentially be randomized. Also, please learn how to spell. PLEASE.

    I'm still pushing for an anime-style Pokemon league. One that's so hard it's okay to lose. You would just have to make something like top 8.

    i think people were speculating this since the pre-HGSS era, so I doubt that Gamefreak would change the current thread. But, I agree with you. This would probably be better for us, but for those 4 year old. It's not.

    I guess flying type would make a comeback. i am hoping for it.

    1st- flying
    2nd- steel
    3rd- grass
    4th- poison
    Champion- mix. Like Blue and Cynthia.

    Tell me your opinion.

    For me, maybe something like this:

    1st: flying type, with the quickest and the most evasive pokemons

    2nd: dark and ghost, with the most mysterious power and the most transparent pokemons

    3rd: different types but mainly ice - 2 ice + 1 electric + 1 dragon + 1 water

    4th: steel type (5 steel + 1 poison) with the most defensive pokemons which are hardly to get a scratch.

    And the champion should be a kid: 1 grass + 1 fire + 1 ground + 1 bug + 1 fighting + 1 normal (lv increase in this order: fighting -> grass -> fire -> ground -> bug -> normal)



    What you think? :P

    Rather than types it should be about particular strategies of battling.

    • They should have a grass type leader. Though, I am the type to under estimate the power of grass typesm. Ahem, one flamethrower and it's all downhill.
    Or maybe the leaders shouldn't have a specific type at all ! :DD

    Ugh for the last time you people can't have a pure Flying-Type Pokemon. Here's why:

    Hypothetical pure Flying-Type Pokemon used ROOST!
    Hypothetical pure Flying-Type Pokemon now has NO TYPE!

    It would have the ??? type, which would be neutral against everything.

    Personally, I would like to see a theme running through the Elite 4's choice of pokemon, like Reptillian pokemon, pokemon related to a certain culture or Humanoid pokemon...
    Or maybe even specific strategies like all out attack, use of status effects and debilitation or a fight of attrition.

    But i cant see this happening... what i can see is something a bit like this:
    1st: Flying (but mixed with other types, like Altaria and Honchkrow)
    2nd: Dragon/Fire
    3rd: Steel
    4th: Ice
    Champ: Mixed

    • I just want to bring up the fact that out of the 13 american pokemon games there has never been a single electric pokemon in the entire elite four / champion, except Blue would have a jolteon in pokemon yellow and ONLY if you'd started with squirtle.

    • I'm always a fan for something different, so I definitely liked the idea of focusing on the idea of strategies rather than types.

    But I don't think that would happen so any of



    Electric

    Poison

    Fire-But only if there are enough new fire pokemon to use

    Dark or Steel but only one otherwise fighting pokemon would romp through it

    Champ is again a best of but I want a challenge this time but not by spamming Full Restores, one that has instinctive AI which will react when I change a Pokemon, etc

    Also would swap any of them for an Elite Four member who only used Eeveelutions now with 7 of them one wouldn't make it now either decide it by random (ie different for each game) or sit out one of Glaceon/Vaporeon.
