What Pokémon won you the Elite Four in B/W
 
I have heard a lot of strategies for beating the Elite four but want to hear what pokemon others used to win

I used a Dragonite lv 66
thunderbolt
flamethrower
ice beam
surf

Joshawott April 5th, 2012 6:26 PM

Assuming you're talking about Black and White, I believe I had my Carracosta out when the final blow was delivered to Ghetsis' Pokémon.

PlatinumDude April 5th, 2012 8:11 PM

As mentioned above, this is assuming B/W's E4 before confronting N.

I'll just mention the teams that I used in both games.

Black: Samurott, Scolipede, Archeops, Excadrill, Haxorus, Sawk

White: Emboar, Sigilyph, Excadrill, Carracosta, Haxorus, Galvantula

TaurusFire April 5th, 2012 9:47 PM

I always use three pokemon only, mine were Musharna Scrafty and Samurott.

~V~ April 5th, 2012 10:11 PM

Assuming for B/W E4. My Emboar really carried the team on my first ever run.

bewbs April 5th, 2012 10:39 PM

I recently beated the elite four with this team: Larviatar, Oshawott, Vanilite, Pichu, Shuppet and Larvesta.

The team I used to beat Elite 4 Twice, one before N and one with Alder was: Blissey, Lampent, Metagross and Bellossom. Also had a HM slave Arceus.

SinisterEternity April 6th, 2012 2:45 AM

My Serperior, litterally beat up the E4. O_o

Growth
Leaf Blade
Strenght
Giga Drain

But it was a bit different against N and Gethis. xD

In my first playthrough I wasnt really ready for the last battle. All my Pokemon were very slow, and they kept of getting swept by Hydragon. I ended up having my Musharna put it to sleep. That was on the third try though, that seemed like a really tough battle at the time

Zephele April 6th, 2012 9:10 AM

Scrafty and Archeops were my key players the first time through. I think they almost swept through two Elite 4 members each. I also recall Scrafty doing a particularly good job against N and Ghetsis.

Ho-Oh April 6th, 2012 9:14 AM

Scrafty. Literally it is the only useful Pokemon at all when it comes to the Elite Four. I was told that for my first playthrough and didn't follow the advice, didn't the second time, finally did the third time, and I was so appleased it was successful!! :) Just needed a psychic or a flying type though tbh, which I seemed to not have. :x Oh yeah, level 100 Herdier/Audino also can work against Alder in particular. XD

Um, my Mienshao wrecked all of the E4s, except for the Psychic. And even then she killed like two of her 'mons. But I agree that Scratfy's typing makes it the most useful.

Ho-Oh April 6th, 2012 9:17 AM

Oh well yeah, I see why it could be useful too! But reallyyyy, Scrafty has the advantage of being super effective against three/four, which Mienshao cannot claim, so thus Scrafty wins out imo. :3

imo any strong Fighting type destroys the Unova '4. :x

All you need is a Dark/bug with him and you'll be good to go.

Briankelly130 April 6th, 2012 10:41 AM

Let's see if I can remember, I had Serperior, Vanilluxe, Chandelure, Victini, Braviary and one other I can't really remember, those five are usually part of my main team.

The Mewtwo April 6th, 2012 10:50 AM

I used a level 86 (at the time, now hes 100!) Samurott
A Level 72 Volcarana
Level 54 Mewtwo
Level 100 Porygon - Z (Hacked from friend, i didn't use it, which was weird).
Level ??? Zekrom (I forgot the level he starts on lol)

And thats it. A pretty good team but i still dont get it. A champion of one region has a HUGE Temple!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man he must be good.

shinyunbreon April 6th, 2012 12:10 PM

my random shiny darmanitan murders the e4

Ephemeral Euphoria April 6th, 2012 12:26 PM

On White it was mostly Carracosta and Haxorus that won me the tougher battles such as Grimsley and Caitlin.

My team at the time was Emboar, Excadrill, Haxorus, Carracosta, Reuniclus, and Cofagrigus.

sherreamethyst April 6th, 2012 12:52 PM

My team was what my teams been throughout pretty much the whole game. They were all like lvl 54 i think, im not sure...I beat the game quite a long time ago, but I think my team was:

-Crustle
-Reuniclus
-Eelektross
-Chandelure
-Braviary
-Zweilous

My pokes are all in their lvl 70's now I think, and I've switched out my Braviary for my trusty ol' pal SIMMY(Dragonite, LOL. Sorry for the terrible name; I was young and uncreative...).

Crazyme931 April 6th, 2012 2:44 PM

Just a confirmation, yeah I meant the B/W E4

Legobricks April 6th, 2012 3:36 PM

My first clear was with Archeops, whom the rest of the team was eventually foddered-off to support.

Thundurus! April 6th, 2012 4:55 PM

First time winning the elite 4:

Samurott
Darmanitan
Sawk
Krookodile
Thundurus
Haxorus

Artemicion April 6th, 2012 5:31 PM

it was Scrafty...who else? :D
and Samurott
Serperior
Emboar
Unfezant

they were 55+ so... :D

Hikamaru April 6th, 2012 9:34 PM

My team at the time...

Samurott
Krookodile
Archeops
Gothitelle
Zweilous
Chandelure

Chandelure, Krookodile, Samurott and Gothitelle played the biggest parts.

Cybersterio April 7th, 2012 12:32 AM

My team was pretty basic. Just mainly tried to get at the type weaknesses:

Samurott

Simisear

Krookodile

Leavanny

Unfeazant

P.S. That was for Pokemon White. Currently going through Pokemon Black

vaporeon7 April 7th, 2012 11:46 AM

If I had to choose one of my Pokémon from my team that did most of the slaying in the Elite Four it would have to be my Lilligant. I would always just put them to sleep with Sleep Powder and then use Leech Seed and then use Quiver Dance followed by Giga Drain.
