Tips
- The Elite Four specialise in Bug (Aaron), Ground (Bertha), Fire (Flint) and Psychic (Lucian); Champion Cynthia's ace is a Garchomp.
- Stock up at the combined Pokémon Center and Poké Mart in the lobby; you can't go back to a Pokémon Center between Elite Four rooms, so bring plenty of healing items.
- You need Surf and Waterfall to travel up Route 223 to reach the League.
- The lobby combines a Pokémon Center and Poké Mart, plus access to the Wireless Club and Wi-Fi Club.
- A guard only lets you into the Elite Four wing once you have all eight Sinnoh Badges.
