3rd Gen Winstrate Family

They were a challenge for me, because the Pokémon that I had on my team weren't strong enough. I was even beaten by one of their family members (don't remember who, exactly) once, so I was required to restore my Pokémon back to full health and battle them again. It wasn't very fun to battle against the Winstrate family, but with their help, I was able to level up a few of my Pokémon.
 
They're not challenging for me, at all.
Almost of their Pokémon were 1HKO'd by my Pokémon.
But yeah, they're useful for gaining exp. points. :D

I didn't know that Vito was related to this family too.
 
The Winstrate family was very easy, actually. All you need is a decent Pokemon and you can take them out easily.
 
The Winstrate Family was a piece of cake. Defeated all four family members as easily as brushing off dust from my shoulder.

...okay, enough of the similes. Yes they were quite easy for me to beat. Loved the extra experience points they gave me. Didn't really like it that they didn't give me the chance to switch my lead Pokemon before each battle though.
 
I took on all of the Winstrates as well and had no trouble with the fact that you weren't able to heal between the battles.. I just can't seem to remember if I took them on whenever I first approached their house on my journey or if I went back to them after I had gotten into the Hall of Fame to determine how much of a challenge they were.
 
Yea, to tell you the truth, it took me about five trys. The grandma always "smacked" me down with her Meditite. I really should have cought a taillow that run through.
 
I never had any problems with them at all. Also, I didn't even know that the son was on Victory Road. I don't pay attention to the small details very often. Also, a lot of you are saying you would have liked to have been able to verse all 5 after the elite 4. Well, if you think about it, they aren't really training. Only he was. So, really, they would be about the same level and he'd be a lot higher. It wouldn't make sense.
 
In the (hopeful) remakes, I hope this family actually provides a challenge. I usually just used them to raise my weaker Pokémon because they were always so simple.
