How to Beat Elite Four Agatha
Use Psychic-Type Pokemon
All of Agatha's Pokemon are part-Poison, which makes Psychic-type Pokemon the best recommendation to defeat her. Since both Ghost and Poison are physical-type in Generation 3, Gengar's low base Attack stat of 65 makes it less threatening.
Pokemon like Kadabra or Hypno are strong enough to compete against Gengar. Have your Pokemon at least three levels higher than Agatha's strongest Pokemon to defeat Agatha's team.
Take Out Both Gengars ASAP
Agatha has 2 Gengars, one at Lvl. 54 with Confuse Ray and Toxic, while the other is Lvl. 58 with Hypnosis. These moves will land on your Pokemon most of the time, forcing you to use a turn to either heal the status condition, or swap to another Pokemon.
It is highly recommended to increase the Speed of your strongest Pokemon to take the first move and defeat them in one hit as soon as possible with Psychic.
Prepare Status Healing Items
Since Agatha's team will have moves that can inflict Poison, Sleep, Paralysis, or Confusion, it is best to prepare healing items like Full Restores and Full Heals to deal with them.
Best Team to Beat Elite Four Agatha
When Starting with Bulbasaur
 Venusaur
|
 Kadabra
|
 Hypno
|
If you are facing Agatha with Venusaur, it can be bulky enough to tank strong moves from Agatha's team. You may use moves like Sleep Powder to gain a free turn, or forcibly use strong neutral moves to reduce the opponent's HP.
To counter Agatha's Ghost/Poison team, Psychic-type Pokemon are the best choice since her entire team is also Poison-type. Kadabra or Hypno are fast and strong enough to take them down with Psychic.
When Starting with Charmander
 Charizard
|
Kadabra
|
Hypno
|
With Charizard as your starter, it can already deal serious damage with moves like Flamethrower. Pair Charizard up with Psychic-type Pokemon like Kadabra or Hypno to take out Agatha's team with moves like Psychic.
When Starting with Squirtle
 Blastoise
|
Kadabra
|
Hypno
|
Blastoise can be good against Agatha with a Dark-type move like Bite in its moveset, since Dark-type moves are super-effective against Ghost. Pair Blastoise up with Kadabra or Hypno and have them learn Psychic to defeat Agatha's team easily.
