    Hey everyone! :)
    I'm just wondering where you found the best place to train before the elite for on Leaf Green or Fire Red. My Pokes aren't really strong enough for the four yet and I'm trying to train them up. But training up a lv50 Poke takes a looooong time with weaker wild ones.
    At the moments I'm training on victory road.
    But I'm just wondering where you found the best place to train.

    Thanks :)
     
    Use the VS. seeker.Its really helpful in training.Some items can also help,either for making your Pokemon stronger or making them level faster.Ex.Mach Brace,Lucky egg.
    Anyplace is good enough for training as long as your Pokemon are up to it.
     
    thanks
    do you think its better to use the macho brace or exp. share?
    I like to make the Poke that I'm training hold the exp. share so that the points are doubled.
    but would it be better to use the macho brace?
     
    Get your best pokemon out and then give the pokemon you want to train a EXP.Share and keep fighting hard trainers using the VS.Seeker.
    That hopefully should work :)
     
    yeah i looked it up
    lol
    ive been playing pokemon since the beginning
    but i still havent caught up with the IV training and such
    awell
    thanks!
     
    I usually train in victory road or go to random trainers and use the vs. seeker. =]
     
    I've beaten the Elite 4 starting with pokemon in the high 20's before. If you make use of type advantages (which may or may not require using a few TMs), the Elite Four aren't tough at all.

    Anyway, the six Bikers at the start of Cycling Road are useful for leveling up on the Vs. Seeker. Poison types are easily defeated, and evolved pokemon provide a pretty solid amount of EXP.

    Oh, and the EXP. Share doesn't double the EXP for the pokemon holding it; that's what the Lucky Egg does. The EXP. Share gives half of the EXP. gained in battle to the one holding it. If you have a Pikachu holding the EXP. Share, but your Bulbasaur single-handedly defeats a wild pokemon, then EXP will be distributed between Pikachu and Bulbasaur 50-50. If both Pikachu and Bulbasaur participate in the battle, then Pikachu will still get the half share of EXP. plus another quarter for participating in battle, so EXP. will be split between Pikachu and Bulbasaur 75-25.

    LOL! I remeber in my first E4 attempt I tried to se Blastiose all the way. Miracuously I got up to Gary and his Venasaur:surprised:
     
    VS seeker works well.Or you could run around in Victory Road to fight the Pokemon there.You could also give them boosters like Protein or Zinc.
     
    The VS Seeker is a better idea than the wild Pokemon, since you will get more experience from them. The top of Cycling Path and the route east of Fuschia are good places to get a lot of trainers within the VS Seeker's range at one time.

    If you want to take on the Elite Four now, as the previous poster suggested, remember to spend all your money so your finances don't take a hit when they do defeat you.
