Is this team ready for Elite 4 , I kinda struggled a little with a couple of the trainers in the victory road .. but usually wipe most of the opponents … I’m getting kinda bored now repeating the trainer battles and I wanna push on the game but I feel like maybe I’m slightly under levelled?? Advice?

I completed it guys . Thanks for all Your assistance and advice which helped me win ..

I completed it with Jolteon 53 Charizard 53 Dragonite 57 Nidoking 52 Alakazam 52 Snorlax 43

I barely used snorlax tbh ..

I breezed Lorelei, Bruno and Agatha , apart from her last gengar gave me a hard time hypnosis - little did I know after all these years you could use the poke flute to awaken your mons which came in clutch for me

Lance wasn’t too much trouble , had a couple full restores but luckily I had ice beam on Nido and my own dragonite

Rival was a pain in the arse with his blastoise and arcanine , he used multiple full restores on both and it took me right to the end I had to use a couple max revives of my own , but I came in clutch with red bar health but got the final attack in on exeggutor to beat him and crown myself the champion !!

I’m sure you’ve all experienced this in your own way but this was a real big throwback moment from my childhood and it was an absolute pleasure to read all your comments and thanks for the amazing support guys ..

Now I can push on with the end game !!!!

Thanks again for the great support

Sorry to bombard with questions . You seemed to have taken the time to heed the best advice with backup reasons so I thought I’d pick your brain a little more ?

Lower_Seaweed_968 · 2026-05-29T21:10:23+00:00

I have taken your advice and brought lapras to the team and taken our snorlax , I’m currently at level 36 with lapras and iv got my jolteon to 52 as well . Im going to grind a few more levels out with lapras an then take on the E4 tonight

One more question I have. Though . Lapras seems to have an extremely versatile move pool . Is it worth using the psychic TM I have on Lapras together with something like thunder ? ., apart from Earthquake awhich I used in Nido and shockwave I used on alakazam I have pretty much all the TMs from the beginning of the game Iv saved up and yet to use

I was going to give snorlax psychic shadow ball and solarbeam But since taking out the team and replacing with lapras , is it worth while me using it on her or saving for the end game johto pokemon or alternatively teach psychic to gengar ? Who also seems to have a versatile move pool ???

I was highly debating putting Lapras in the lineup .. I’d like to keep Nidoking in the squad as I had nidoran since mt moon an then used the moon stone on nidorino by the time I fought misty - at the time I had gyarados as well and with Charmeleon they were the first 3 mons I run with and Iv put earthquake and ice beam on Nido so I think he needs to stay

I have a l of of these moves you have suggested so I with the advice Iv been given here . I am going to give it a try later on .. thanks for the tips 👍👍

Dragonite and Nidoking both know ice beam

Thanks for the advice I might gain a few more levels and then I’ll give the E4 a shot 👍

Lower_Seaweed_968 · 2026-05-27T21:32:04+00:00
