You should prepare plenty of healing items when you challenge the Elite Four. When you begin, you will not be able to go to a Pokemon Center or get any more items, so make sure you buy or stock up on enough items to last throughout the challenge.
| Healing Items To Buy for the Elite Four Challenge | ||
|---|---|---|

If you fail to beat the Elite Four, try finishing the two other story quests. Both the Path of Legends and Starfall Street feature a plethora of strong trainers and Pokemon for you to challenge so you will be able to get lots of experience to level up your Pokemon, as well as new TMs which may come in handy.
You should make sure your Pokemon's levels are as high as possible. All Pokemon belonging to Elite Four members and the Champion are around Level 60, so you should try to make sure your Pokemon at least match them. If there is a large gap in levels between your strongest and weakest Pokemon in your party, try to level it out before you start your challenge.
When you arrive at the Pokemon League Headquarters, Rika will make you take a Champion Test before becoming eligible to face the Elite Four.

Rika's Ground Type Pokemon are weak to Water and Ice Type moves, which she counters with Fire and Steel moves from Camerupt and Donphan.
Using Pokemon like Gyarados and Rotom who are Immune to Ground-type attacks, while dealing STAB super effective damage with their Water Type moves can make the battle easier.

Poppy's team is made up of predominantly Steel Types, which are not only weak to Fire but only deal half damage to Fire Type Pokemon. Therefore, bringing Fire Type Pokemon is your surest path to victory against Poppy.

Larry's Flying Type Pokemon are weak to Ice and Rock Type moves, which he counters with Fighting type moves from Staraptor and Flamigo. Use Pokemon like Gyarados and Tinkaton in the battle against them, since they can still use Ice and Rock-type moves but are not vulnerable to Fighting-type moves.

When fighting Hassel, stick to using Ice and Fairy-type Pokemon, which will give you a clear advantage against his Dragon-type Pokemon. Using Ice-type Pokemon, in particular, is very effective, as they will deal heavy damage against Hassel's Flapple and Noivern.

Focus on taking out Geeta's Kingambit quickly with Fire or Fighting-type moves, since its Supreme Overlord Ability makes it more powerful each time a Pokemon has been defeated before it. Try to bring a Steel-Type Pokemon with you to make quick work of half of Geeta's Team.
| 1 |  Get to Mesagoza by either going there on foot or using the Flying Taxi service. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  In Northwest Mesagoza, there will be a cave next to the sandwich shop. Enter it. |
| 3 |  After entering the cave, you will come out the other side to a grassy path. Go straight down the path. |
| 4 |  You'll find the Pokemon League Headquarters is at the very end of the path. |
Even though you can access the area containing the Pokemon League before defeating all Gym Leaders, you cannot proceed to fight the Elite Four unless you have completed the Victory Road Story Path. We recommend doing so regardless, as this will allow you to take on the Elite Four with a team of adequately leveled Pokemon.
