Line 254: Line 254:
* Though multiple Trainers in the Elite Four use the same type as another Elite Four Trainer, only Fighting and Dragon have appeared multiple times used by the same Trainers (as Lance and Bruno are in the Elite Four of Kanto in all generations that they appeared in).

* Despite their Japanese name being "Four Heavenly ''Kings''", each Elite Four group contains at least one female member among them. In fact, Indigo Plateau in Generation II and Generation IV is the only Elite Four that doesn't contain two women (including Cynthia the champion in Sinnoh).

* The Hoenn Elite Four are the only Elite Four to have an entirely individual battle theme. The Indigo Elite Four share their battle theme with the Kanto Gym Leaders in Generations I and III and the Johto Gym Leaders in Generations II and IV, while the Sinnoh Elite Four's battle theme is that of the Sinnoh Gym Leaders, put down a half step.
* The Elite Four, when faced after all Kanto badges have been obtained in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, gives the most prize money of any regional Elite Four, grossing to {{PDollar}}75,660, followed by the post-National Pokédex Elite Four in [[Sinnoh]], which pays {{PDollar}}50,160. The cheapest prize money comes from the [[Generation II]] [[Johto]] Elite Four, giving only {{PDollar}}22,900. This is likely due to the fact that [[Kanto]] is accessible afterward. HeartGold and SoulSilver made the initial Elite Four payout substantially larger as well.
