Other than that her team is not that much different. A {{t|Fighting}} or {{type|Electric}}-type would be able to handle her team. If you use a {{type|Fire}} against Piloswine, finish it off quickly as it knows two moves that could KO one quickly especially {{p|Charizard}}. | ||

Defense a powerful Fire-type attack can easily KO them. His other Pokémon now know how to use {{m|Rock Slide}} so be careful if you use a {{type|Flying}}. The {{type|Psychic}} will still dominate [[Bruno]], as the only moves that are super-effective on them are the {{p|Steelix}}'s {{m|Crunch}}. Bring in a team with a strong slate of Special Attackers and the fight will be easy. | ||

All of Agatha's Pokémon have relatively poor Defenses, and all except for {{p|Misdreavus}} are weak to {{type|Psychic}} attacks. | ||

Lance is more difficult to face than before. He now has two {{p|Dragonite}} and one of his {{p|Dragonair}} has been replaced by {{p|Kingdra}}. Facing Kingdra will be difficult since only {{ | Lance is more difficult to face than before. He now has two {{p|Dragonite}} and one of his {{p|Dragonair}} has been replaced by {{p|Kingdra}}. Facing Kingdra will be difficult since only {{type|Dragon}} moves will do super effective damage against it and it is capable of countering the {{type|Dragon}} as well as the {{type|Grass}}. A powerful {{type|Electric}} or {{type|Ice}} move will suffice, or a {{type|Dragon}} move if possible. Both {{p|Dragonite}}s have moves to counter pure Ice-types or ones that are part Water types. It is possible to make it easier if a paralyzing move like {{m|Thunder Wave}} is used to cut their speed. Lastly both {{p|Gyarados}} and {{p|Aerodactyl}} now have moves that can counter the types they are weak to. {{p|Lapras}} is a good Pokémon to bring to this fight, as it can learn both {{t|Ice}} and {{type|Electric}} moves, while resisting {{t|Fire}} and {{type|Ground}} moves. | ||

The main change to Blue's team is that his {{p|Pidgeot}} and {{p|Rhydon}} have been replaced by {{p|Heracross}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}. They along with {{p|Alakazam}} and the rest of his team depending on what your [[Starter Pokémon|starter]] was have new movesets that can also counter most types they are weak to aside from {{p|Arcanine}} and {{p|Exeggutor}}. | The main change to Blue's team is that his {{p|Pidgeot}} and {{p|Rhydon}} have been replaced by {{p|Heracross}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}.

Although Blue's new team is very powerful, it has some major weaknesses that can be exploited by a skilled trainer. Any {{ | Although Blue's new team is very powerful, it has some major weaknesses that can be exploited by a skilled trainer. Any {{type|Flying}} move should be able to quickly defeat {{p|Heracross}}, as it is 4x super effective. {{p|Tyranitar}} also has a 4x weakness to the {{type|Fighting}}, so be sure to take it out as quickly as possible before it is able to inflict heavy damage with its extremely high {{Stat|Attack}} stat. {{p|Exeggutor}} also has a quadruple weakness to the {{type|Bug}}, so any Pokémon can learn a {{type|Bug}} move like {{m|Signal Beam}} (for example: {{p|Dewgong}} will be able to wipe it out). {{p|Alakazam}} is also weak to the {{type|Bug}} as well as the {{type|Dark}} and the {{type|Ghost}}, and its terrible {{Stat|Defense}} can be exploited. Beware of its extremely high {{Stat|Special Attack}} stat, however. {{p|Gyarados}} is very difficult to deal with, as it has {{a|Intimidate}}, good Defense, {{Stat|Special Defense}}, {{Stat|Speed}}, and very high Attack. It has a quadruple weakness to the {{type|Electric}}, but its {{m|Earthquake}} can quickly destroy any {{type|Electric}} Pokémon that it outspeeds. {{p|Arcanine}} is powerful and fast, but it cannot counter any {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}}, or {{type|Rock}} Pokémon. His [[Starter Pokémon|starter]] is the most difficult: all three of his starters can counter their weaknesses. Fortunately, Charizard has a 4x weakness to the {{type|Rock}}, and both {{p|Blastoise}} and {{p|Venusaur}} are fairly slow, with {{p|Venusaur}} having many weaknesses. A powerful, diverse team is needed to take down Blue. Some recommended Pokémon are: {{p|Jolteon}}, {{p|Dewgong}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}}, {{p|Gengar}}, {{p|Lapras}}, {{p|Machamp}}, as well as the [[Starter Pokémon|starter]]. | ||
Once you defeat Blue again your new team is recorded in the Hall of Fame and congratulations for facing the updated Elite Four. This along with the [[Trainer Tower]] are the most challenging elements of the game and this will truly test your skill as a Pokémon Trainer. | Once you defeat Blue again your new team is recorded in the Hall of Fame and congratulations for facing the updated Elite Four.
