    Did you defeated Alder? Did it take you hard? What about the E4? Are they easy? Are they hard?
    Discuss it here!
    Okay, so you won.
    So fill these:
    First Turn
    -----------
    User: E4 ----
    Hardest Pokemon (why?):
    Easiest Pokemon:
    -------------
    Second Turn

    User: E4 ----/Champion Alder
    Hardest Pokemon:
    Easiest Pokemon:
     
    The format puts me off a little, so I'll just answer in general.

    I didn't really have many problems with the Elite four. My Zorro (Shiny Zoroark) pretty much took care of Shauntal, my Simisear's Actrobatics and Flamethrower were pretty useful against Grimsley's Scrafty and Bisharp, Caitlin was taken down with Zorro and Marshal was done over by my Musharna.

    Alder on the other hand was pretty much easy once I tried a lot around east unova before going back. I did have to result to max revives due to his Volcarna's very annoying big buzz.
     
    I'm also going to answer normally :P anyways, really the Elite Four was very easy, I didn't find it challenging at all but here are the 'potential' threats that the Elite Four carry.

    Shauntel    : Chandelure, that massive special attack can dent your Pokemon.

    Marshal: Sawk, this thing has sturdy and won't go down without giving you its harsh close combat.

    Grimsley: Krookodile I have to say is the only threat here, with intimidate and earthquake, it sure can hurt.

    Caitlin    : Her Bronzong can be a pain to take out due to its high defenses, her full restore dosen't help as well...

    Alder: This one would have to be Volcarona, after it sets up with Quiver Dance, good luck!

    But really, I never had any trouble with the E4.
     
    With a team of Boldore, Audino, Scrafty and Herdier... yeah Marshal was an issue. :x Don't remember what I did first playthrough but for that playthrough? I used grinding all the way. I have no clue how I'm going to go in the eventual rematch, aiming for level 100s for everyone though. :(

    Everyone else was surprisingly easy with Scrafty though! :3 Oh and haven't faced Alder yet soooo.
     
    First time facing them my team was Emboar, Haxorus, Excadrill, Carracosta, Renunculis, and Cofagrigus at the time but the only ones I had trouble with were Grimsley's Krookodile, Shauntaul's Golurk, and Caitlin's Sygliph. It was pretty easy otherwise.

    Second time was a cakewalk as my team was Emboar, Hydreigon, Charizard, Garchomp, Gengar, and Palkia. Didn't have much trouble of note, expected a bit more challenge from Alder to be honest but oh well.
     
    (assuming all original Pokemon in the first and second rounds)

    Shauntal: Cofagrigus was 2HKOed by Archeops' Acrobatics (I had to use a Flying Gem in the second round). Golurk dealt some respective damage to Haxorus, but Haxorus managed to take it down with Dragon Claw in the first round and Outrage the second. Chandelure lost to Samurott in both rounds with Surf. Jellicent was a big pain in the butt because I used Scolipede. I could've used something else, but oh well.

    Grimsley: Archeops took Scrafty down with Acrobatics, Excadrill took out Liepard with Earthquake, Bisharp was KOed by Sawk's Close Combat and Krookodile was KOed by Samurott's Surf. Grimsley was easy in short.

    Caitlin: OHKOed Reuniclus with Scolipede's Megahorn, 2HKOed Sigilyph with Sawk's Rock Slide (even though Sawk survived a Psychic from Sigilyph without Sturdy activating), KOed Musharna with Excadrill's Earthquake. Samurott's Megahorn nearly OHKOed Gothitelle, but I landed the KO in the next hit.

    Marshall: 2HKOed Throh with Samurott's Surf (I wonder why it never used Storm Throw?), 3HKOed Sawk with Haxorus' Dragon Claw (factoring in Sturdy and the Full Restore), OHKOed Conkeldurr with Archeops' Acrobatics, OHKOed Mienshao with Sawk's Close Combat (Sawk outsped Mienshao thanks to the EV training I gave it).

    Team at that time: Samurott, Sawk, Scolipede, Archeops, Excadrill, Haxorus
    (yeah, I kind of narrated the battles I did)
     
    It was much more like a Wipe Out. They were really Easy, especially if you transfer your Old PkMns XD .

    My Garchomp wipes out Shauntal, Caitlin and Part of Marshal set.
    Infernape takes out Grimsley for me as well as some of Marshal's set. So yeah, I use these 2 to wipe them out :/
