4th Gen Pokemon League Advice

[meltingwxlls]

Been spamming the pokemon league for a few days with amulet coin and exp.share to level up my pokemon and get a lot of cash as my pokemon aren't strong enough yet to completely defeat them.

With the help of health items I've been able to get to cynthia but not defeat any of her pokemon yet.

My team consists of:
1. Luxray lvl.55 (Thunder, Crunch, Thunder Fang and Charge Beam)
2. Floatzel lvl.55 (Ice Punch, Crunch, Surf and Focus Blast)
3. Torterra lvl.55 (Crunch, Stone Edge, Earthquake and Wood Hammer)
4. Rapidash lvl.57 (Bounce, Fire Blast, Flare Blitz and Megahorn)
5. Giratina lvl.57 (Ominous Wind, Dark Pulse, Dragon Claw and Shadow Force
6. Tentacruel lvl.55 (Water Pulse, Poison Jab, Surf and Hydro Pump)

Aaron, Bertha and Flint are pretty much a breeze to defeat at this point. Lucian is a slight struggle unless I have some revives and ethers for my Giratina's Shadow Force plus the crunch moves.

This is typically the process I end up following each time give or take a few changes.

Aaron
Yanmega - Use Luxray
Scizor - Use Rapidash
Vespiquen - Use Luxray, Rapidash or Floatzel's Ice Punch
Heracross - Use Rapidash
Drapion - Use Torterra's Earthquake

Bertha
Wishcash - Use Torterra's Woodhammer
Gliscor - Use Floatzel
Hippowdon - Use Floatzel or Torterra's Woodhammer
Golem - Use Floatzel
Rhyperior - Use Floatzel


Flint
Use Floatzel for all as well as giratina and Tentacruel

Lucian
Mr mime - giratina
Espeon - giratina and crunch
Bronzong - Rapidash
Alakazam - Giratina and crunch
Gallade - giratina

Any advice would be great because I want the national dex so bad!! I suck at Pokemon leagues
Thanks xx

Why do you have two water types? The fact that both have Surf is rather strange.

I suggest you get a Flying type Pokemon, or a Pokemon with a flying-type move along with a Fire type to take out Aaron. Vespiquen might be a pain, but is still crushed by a Fire type. You could also get a Rock type.

For Bertha, my advice is you use your Floatzel or Tentacruel along with your Torterra, you'll be fine. Some of her Pokemon hit pretty hard, but they're all pretty slow. Keep your HP high.

Flint has a good team with some tricky moves. Don't rely too much on your Water types, as his Rapidash has SolarBeam and Sunny Day, and his Magmortar has Thunderbolt, so watch out.

Lucien is probably the hardest out of the four, but watch out - they all can deal good damage to all your Pokemon, especially Giratina.

Hope i helped!
