pokejungle, please post your team, as I don't see where you have.That could help in assisting you greatly.
Try This If Available
Empoleon - Brine, Blizzard, Surf, Waterfall
Electabuzz - Psychic, Thunderbolt, Iron Tail, Discharge
Giratina (Altered Forme) - Ominous Wind, Shadow Ball, Dragon Claw, Shadow Force
Gabite - Cut (or not), Slash, Dragon Claw, Dig
Rhydon - Rock Climb, Strength, Horn Drill, Hammer Arm
Luxray - Roar, Swagger, Thunder Fang, Crunch
Allow me to explain
Empoleon, being Water/Steel, is resistant to Poison, which makes it a contender for walling against Aaron. But use it wisely, since you'd need it to effectively take out Cynthia's Garchomp.
Against Helga, or Agatha, or whatever the rock woman's name is, Empoleon pretty much has it covered with Water/Ice attacks, but Earthquake is an easy KO against it, so again, be careful.
Vs. Lucien, bring out Electabuzz (or Electivire) and let it sweep. Personally, my Electabuzz has a +Speed nature, but has favorable Attack and Sp. Attack, making T-Bolt, Psychic, Iron Tail, and another attack good choices for the E4.
Against Flint (or whatever his name is...), bring out either Empoleon, or Rhydon if it knows surf. I say Rhydon because being Rock/Ground, Fire attacks won't do much. But you have to take Rapidash's varied movepool into consideration here, as well as Infernape's fighting attacks, so it's all up to you on that one.
Finally, for Cynthia, bring out something that can get the job done fast. Electabuzz/vire would do well to wipe out most of her team. With high enough Sp. Attack, Buzz/Vire's T-Bolt can sweep pretty well aside from Garchomp. Whatever you do, keep your Empoleon alive throughout the duration of this battle, because if you don't have any other Pokémon with Ice or Dragon attacks here, you're going to lose, more than likely. If you get lucky, or have an accuracy boost or accuracy boosting item on Empoleon, a Blizzard should, if enough power is present, KO Garchomp without much ado.
Other Options
Garchomp is always welcome over Gabite. I just suggested the team that I got through with on my first run without using any traded Pokémon.
Gyarados could make an appearance, if you don't have access to Empoleon. Gyarados could overpower Flint's Infernape without much problem, being that it's Water/Flying vs. Fire/Fighting. If it knows Ice Fang, Surf, Crunch, and something like Dragon Pulse, Earthquake, or a Flying attack, it could be an amazing sweeper.
Rapidash is also a good option to replace a Pokémon you won't really use. With a diverse movepool, it could do some major damage.
This is just what I think. Feel free to make adjustments >_>
