Really? You think it's hard? What level are your Pokemon? I thought it was easy.

I did think the gyms were pretty hard though.

The only E4 I have ever had moderate trouble with was the Hoen E4. This one was hell for me. Really, though, if you know what Pokemon they have ahead of time, it's easier to plan ahead.

I didn't have any water type trained up to a decent level at the time. That would have been really useful for fighting most of the old lady's Pokemon, as well as Cynthia's Garchomp (with Ice Beam). Don't worry though, all of Cynthia's other Pokemon are sweepable.

If you're used to fighting Johto's joke of an Elite 4, you're going to get stomped.

I'd agree with you here, but it really depends on how well trained your Pokémon are. Like I recently played through the game with only a single Pokémon (Victreebel) and without using revives and probably a total of six hyper potions and one full heal, I beat the Elite Four. However, the first time I played it, I had a well rounded team all in their fifties level-wise and it took at least eight tries to get through the Elite Four. It's probably because of the massive level gap just before the Elite Four that it seems/is hard.

I didn't find it hard really, I beat it on my first try, all my pokemon then were lv. 55-65
After my pokemon were in their 70s and 80s I did the E4 rematch where all the E4's pokemon were about 10 lvs higher, but I take weak pokemon there to train c:

The only reason I won was because I had like fifty revives and forty full restores.
And Cynthia still took me like 5 trys.

Beat 'em on the first try with six Pokemon around lv63-64 (a LOT of level grinding, but that's how the Elite Overlord rolls XD)

Cynthia's Garchomp was the only major problem because it was faster than my Ice-Beam equipped Empoleon. Ice Punching Dusknoir finished it off.

Hmm... you thought Platinum's E4 was hard? It was super easy! They...

Oh... forget it then.

In Diamond, it took me a couple of times, but after that it became easy.

Yeah, the Elite 4 in Platinum was operated better compared to Diamond/Pearl imo. It would be funny to see a 3rd encounter.

I thought they were hard, and I've played every generation except R/S/E. It took me something like six days to beat them, and my Pokémon were more than ready. Stupid critical hits were biased. D:<
