Well, what you need to do is train your other pokemon. It seems as though you,ve only focused on training Delcatty and Marshtomp. My advice is to catch a Poochyena yourself and get it to level 25 at least. Your Marshtomp isnt too far away from evolveing though. Delcatty is probably not going to do well against dark pokemon, so find a pokemon like Geodude and train and replace Delcatty untill at least after the battle. And also, use moves like Sand Attack against them so they will hit you less.

What MeteorDragon said is right. Your team is low.
When I battled Maxie I only had my Grovyle that was level 36 at that time.
And that's that I tried to skip some trainers.
Even Marshomp the most powerful is easy to beat to his pokemon.
My best suggestion, train more your pokemon to live lvl 21-or more and your marshompt a liltte more, and you'll beat him like if you were beating a fly.

I am gonna move this to GB Strategies and Movesets where the people there can assist you better.

MOVED

Level your Pokemon up a lot. I'll suggest moves for this team while I'm at it.

my team consists of:
Marshtomp/Mizuki
lvl 29
Curse/Rest/Return/Filler
Earthquake
Ice Beam
Surf

In-game Mixed Swampert works well. You decide the first slot.

Delcatty/Neko
lvl 23
Growl
Assist
Tail Whip
DoubleSlap

All of the 200 Pokemon found in Emerald, you had to pick Delcatty? I'm not even helping this thing out.

Skarmory
lvl 17
Aeriel Ace
Steel Wing
Return
Agility

I doubt you can get Drill Peck now. This is in-game, so even a great defender like Skarmory deserves physical attacks. You can kick at Norman when you level this thing up.

Torkoal
lvl 15
Flamethrower
Body Slam/Return
Curse
Ammesia/Rest/Sunny Day/Sludge Bomb/Filler

Curse is good for Torkoal, even in-game. Keep Curse and try this set. You decide the last slot.

Lotad
lvl 12
Ice Beam
Surf
Giga Drain/Solarbeam
Rain Dance

Train this thing and I'll tell you what to do with Ludicolo.

Aron
lvl 12
Iron Tail
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Return

HM slave I pressume? I'm not even wasting my time.

Mud Sport weakens electric power. Wich is dumb, when Marshtomp is immune to electricity. You should have kept Mud Shot. Its stronger than water gun and you get STAB.

Other than that, you should train some of your others. Suggestions I have are getting more money to buy game corner items. Like TM's 13 24 29 and 35....

Those are flame thrower, ice beam, and psychic. You have very weak moves also. You should power up. ALthough buying coins until you have enough is expensive. Its like 80,000 for those TM's O_o

Edit your posts please.

Read my entire post. I said two things.

#1 A way lot more training!
#2 I'll suggest moves for that team while I was at it.

I know at that point in the game she certainly doesn't have access to all of that stuff, but this is the moveset for her final Elite Four team.

What version are you playing? Because on my emerald when my Mudkip evolved into Marshtomp it learned "Mud Shot" at level 16.

Did you evolve mudkip at 16???

♥Naomi♥ June 9th, 2006 5:32 PM

im playing emerald...
um,no i didnt evolve it at 16...i did near 17/18....i wanted to keep it mudkip...but realized that for wattson i would need the part ground...curse my lazyness not to bring my r/s to my grandmas! curses!!

*slaps forhead*

see why you dont have mudshot??? Oh well train it and dont evolve it into swampert until you get muddy water. Altough it is a bad attack better than water gun.

♥Naomi♥ June 9th, 2006 5:40 PM

what level does marshtomp learn muddy water?
btw,im in the prosses of training my new female poochyena into a mightyena,its lvl 15 right now ^_^

edit:i checked serebii.net,and theres a 2 level difference that marsh tomp and swampert learn muddy [email protected][email protected]

Muddy Water sucks any way. Its too bad you have to beat norman to get surf. You are better off with that. But you probably only got 2 or 3 badges.

Norman is badge five...

miloticmaster June 10th, 2006 1:10 AM

Your pokemon are weak, you need to train more. Then you might have a chance against Maxie.

iv actually betten flannery now,but norman is a pain in my butt
when i used to start with blaziken,it was easy because id keep double kick,but my poor marshtomp isnt even evolved!usually any of my starters have eveolved into their final form by now,and whip normans arse,but that girl with that zangoose that learns slash?it only uses that and swords dance,and same thing that happend with maxie happened here!marshtomp=pwned
delcatty=pwned
mightyena=pwned
skarmory(strangly got pwned)=pwned
and of corse my poor little weak aron=PWNED

thanks for all the help with maxie,now i need help with norman....lol XD or that girl before him too XD(attack door)if i went through the 1 hit ko room,id die in....5 seconds

Latias418 June 10th, 2006 9:36 AM

My sceppy pwned Maxie. And in the gym (Norman's), my Sceppy was Lv. 37 or so and OHKO'd all the trainers in one hit O.o (With Leaf Blade) And Norman's pokemon O.o Except Slaking.

Meteordragon01 June 10th, 2006 10:02 AM

Well, you should train a Makuhita or a Meditite untill one of them evolves, fighting types are strong against normal types. If you can find a rock type like Nosepass or something, that will work too.

enyce June 10th, 2006 10:25 AM

If you beat flannery. Meaning you beat maxie right?

Meteor, you cant find Meditite on Emerald :(

Synchronize June 10th, 2006 10:34 AM

And yet, everyone has overlooked Machop, who iss arguably your 3rd best choice for a Fighting type in RSE, and second in Emerald.

yes,i finally beat maxie ^_^
but now i cant beat norman >_<

enyce June 10th, 2006 1:40 PM

I would tell you to breed a torchic in another game. To get sky uppercut and kill off norman. But Torchic has no arms so its not an option. I bred an tyrouge and traded it to emerald. Then evolved it into Hitmonchan...It was level 35 and it destroyed Norman.

It knew:
Sky Uppercut
Mach Punch
Counter
Strength

Its in my PC now though, there is no way to geht Tyrogue witout breeding with your hitmonchan or hitmonlee. From Fire Red and Leaf green

Lord Mike June 10th, 2006 2:23 PM

The problem with Norman is that even with his Skaking possessing that stupid ability, it still knows Counter. I beat Norman with CB Adamant Golem using Rollout.
