Lowest Level Challenge!
 
Ok, after logging around 25 hours of play, I've finally beat the Elite Four, and surprisingly with a seriously low-levelled squad. I offer the challenge to anyone - can you beat the Elite Four first time around with a lower level squad than mine? Note that these were the levels I started at BEFORE I entered the Elite Four

Charizard - L50
Cut
Strength
Flamethrower
Metal Claw

Blastoise - L50
Surf
Hydro Pump
Tackle
Protect

Note: Protect helped me so much against Lance's Hyper Beams

Venusaur - L50
Synthesis
Razor Leaf
Growth
Leech Seed

Raichu - L51
Thunderbolt
Thunder Wave
Flash
Quick Attack

Pidgeot - L50
Wing Attack
Fly
Quick Attack
Featherdance

Featherdance was another great move to use at taking down Hyper Beam's power.

Butterfree - L51
Silver Wind
Sleep Powder
Psybeam
Safeguard

Items used:
4 x Super Potions
2 x Sweet Water
10 x Revive
10 x Max Potions
10 x Full Restore.

I'm sure there are people out there who started off lower level and won, but I want to find them. Come on, beat my team! Who got lower than me in terms of level and beat the Elite Four?

I beat the e4 with late level 30s pokes but i barely made it.

Toothache November 18th, 2004 5:13 AM

Don't just say that, give details man. Moveset, items used, starting levels.

Anarchytekt November 18th, 2004 5:45 AM

OK....Sorry I dont rememer my team's levels immediately after defeating the Elite 4.
This is the team in L/G after finishing the entire game....(I'm a pathetic trainer)

Venusaur Lvl 54
Holding Amulet Coin(I'm greedy:))
Razor Leaf
Solar Beam
Sleep Powder
Frenzy Plant

Raichu Lvl 51
Holding Leftovers

Shockwave
Thunder
Brick Break
Mega Kick

Snorlax Lv. 53
Holding Exp. Share
Surf
Blizzard
HyperBeam
Strength

Pidgeot Lv. 54
Holding Leftovers
Aerial Ace
Quick Attack
Steel Wing
Fly

Alakazam Lv.56

Psybeam
Psychic
Future Sight
Recover

Dugtrio Lv. 54
Rock Smash
Cut
Earthquake

And note that I'm telling u this team after finishing the game, not defeating the Elite 4, so some of the held items would have been changed...and I don't need any advise on how to train as well...I'm not playing it anymore.

Eeee... my pokemon were on level 50-60. I like strong Team. If your pokemon are on 30-45 level, you will lose a lot of nerves and money (Super Potions, Revive etc. aren`t for free). You must have a hard and sometimes long training - I agree, but later you feel like a real pkmn Master, not like a loser, who uses a lot of S.Potions etc.

Murpheos November 18th, 2004 7:36 AM

After 24h, these were my results (for LG)

Sandslash - L50
Dig
Iron Tail
Aerial Ace
Rock Slide

Rapidash - L50
Flamethrower
Overheat
Bounce
Solar beam

Jolteon
Thunder Bolt
Shock Wave
Dig
Shadow Ball

Poliwrath - L50
Surf
Brick Break
Ice Beam
Psychic

Items used:

Well, actually, I used only 3 super potions throughout the entire thing, seriously. I'm not joking and maybe it was easy for me coz I played on an emu. U know, I save a game before meeting a trainer, then see what pokemon he/she's got, then reload that save state and change my top level pokemon....But I honestly used only 3 super potions that too after battle.
And Murpheos, what is your Jolteon's level?

mewruler November 18th, 2004 10:08 AM

no idea what pokes i had i change so much and i have no idea what levels theyre on ive been playin for 400 hours!

Murpheos November 19th, 2004 3:24 AM

But don`t take my words so much to yourself^^ Everybody uses some Potions etc., its a normal thing. But it is quite not fair (for me, of course) when someone uses 20 Super Potions, for example. I remember, people don`t like Wally (from R/S/E) because he still uses some Potions, Super Potions etc.

IceKitten November 19th, 2004 6:41 AM

I don't go for it low levels either, I go on a spending spree so I don't lose money I want when I lose against E4,a nd then when I lose, after getting some money, maybe, I buy stuff and try again, then my Pokémon are at high levels and I have a lot of items o.o

HellishHades November 19th, 2004 1:48 PM

Here's what I used:

Exeggcute Lv 41 @ Lefties
- Leech Seed
- Confusion
- Reflect
- Sleep Powder

Golbat Lv42
- Wing Attack
- Confuse Ray
- Bite
- Astonish

Gengar Lv41
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball
- Confuse Ray
- Destiny Bond

Alakazam Lv43
- Psychic
- Thief
- Calm Mind
- Recover

Clefable Lv40 @ Lefties
- Psychic
- Ice Beam
- Thunderwave
- Softboiled

The other was filler. I think it was my low-level HM Gyarados.

Obviously, Gengar was the monster used the most. I used about 20 Revives, and many Elixer-type items. Need to restore Destiny Bond's PP, after all.

I either KOed the opponents quickly with super-effective hits to Destiny Bonded them.



Edit: Forgot to mention I kept Gengar a Gastly until I got all the moves I wanted. Otherwise, Gengar can't have that set yet. Probably about 20 Revives, now that I think about it.

klrulez November 25th, 2004 9:48 AM

I did it with:

Lv. 50:

Blastoise; Venusaur; Charizard; Pidgeot; Machamp and Golem

Zechs November 29th, 2004 12:22 PM

Beating the Elite 4 with weak pokemon is a challenge. But, I enjoy training hard and then crushing them in a swift blow. I mean come on they're supose to be the BEST and if you go in there and knock them out without being scathed it's great. Imagine seeing the best professional football team be crushed by some random team that challenged them, like 48-7. It's a sense of accomplishment, and a sense of power. Well, that's just my two-cents.
