    Well, what you need to do is train your other pokemon. It seems as though you,ve only focused on training Delcatty and Marshtomp. My advice is to catch a Poochyena yourself and get it to level 25 at least. Your Marshtomp isnt too far away from evolveing though. Delcatty is probably not going to do well against dark pokemon, so find a pokemon like Geodude and train and replace Delcatty untill at least after the battle. And also, use moves like Sand Attack against them so they will hit you less.
     
    What MeteorDragon said is right. Your team is low.
    When I battled Maxie I only had my Grovyle that was level 36 at that time.
    And that's that I tried to skip some trainers.
    Even Marshomp the most powerful is easy to beat to his pokemon.
    My best suggestion, train more your pokemon to live lvl 21-or more and your marshompt a liltte more, and you'll beat him like if you were beating a fly.
     
    thanks for the help pplz!yeah,i know i should try and try my pkmn harder,i just like getting through the game first,then training them,ill start training them now ^_^

    Level your Pokemon up a lot. I'll suggest moves for this team while I'm at it.

    my team consists of:
    Marshtomp/Mizuki
    lvl 29
    Curse/Rest/Return/Filler
    Earthquake
    Ice Beam
    Surf

    In-game Mixed Swampert works well. You decide the first slot.

    Delcatty/Neko
    lvl 23
    Growl
    Assist
    Tail Whip
    DoubleSlap

    All of the 200 Pokemon found in Emerald, you had to pick Delcatty? I'm not even helping this thing out.

    Skarmory
    lvl 17
    Aeriel Ace
    Steel Wing
    Return
    Agility

    I doubt you can get Drill Peck now. This is in-game, so even a great defender like Skarmory deserves physical attacks. You can kick at Norman when you level this thing up.

    Torkoal
    lvl 15
    Flamethrower
    Body Slam/Return
    Curse
    Ammesia/Rest/Sunny Day/Sludge Bomb/Filler

    Curse is good for Torkoal, even in-game. Keep Curse and try this set. You decide the last slot.

    Lotad
    lvl 12
    Ice Beam
    Surf
    Giga Drain/Solarbeam
    Rain Dance

    Train this thing and I'll tell you what to do with Ludicolo.

    Aron
    lvl 12
    Iron Tail
    Earthquake
    Rock Slide
    Return

    HM slave I pressume? I'm not even wasting my time.

    i have tried many times and failed.he send out his mightyena,i send out marshtomp

    Mud Sport weakens electric power. Wich is dumb, when Marshtomp is immune to electricity. You should have kept Mud Shot. Its stronger than water gun and you get STAB.

    Other than that, you should train some of your others. Suggestions I have are getting more money to buy game corner items. Like TM's 13 24 29 and 35....

    Those are flame thrower, ice beam, and psychic. You have very weak moves also. You should power up. ALthough buying coins until you have enough is expensive. Its like 80,000 for those TM's O_o

    Edit your posts please.

    Read my entire post. I said two things.

    #1 A way lot more training!
    #2 I'll suggest moves for that team while I was at it.

    I know at that point in the game she certainly doesn't have access to all of that stuff, but this is the moveset for her final Elite Four team.

    What version are you playing? Because on my emerald when my Mudkip evolved into Marshtomp it learned "Mud Shot" at level 16.

    Did you evolve mudkip at 16???
     
    im playing emerald...
    um,no i didnt evolve it at 16...i did near 17/18....i wanted to keep it mudkip...but realized that for wattson i would need the part ground...curse my lazyness not to bring my r/s to my grandmas! curses!!

    *slaps forhead*

    see why you dont have mudshot??? Oh well train it and dont evolve it into swampert until you get muddy water. Altough it is a bad attack better than water gun.
     
    what level does marshtomp learn muddy water?
    btw,im in the prosses of training my new female poochyena into a mightyena,its lvl 15 right now ^_^

    edit:i checked serebii.net,and theres a 2 level difference that marsh tomp and swampert learn muddy water...@_@

    Muddy Water sucks any way. Its too bad you have to beat norman to get surf. You are better off with that. But you probably only got 2 or 3 badges.

    Norman is badge five...
     
    Your pokemon are weak, you need to train more. Then you might have a chance against Maxie.
