Tips
- You cannot leave the Elite Four rooms once you step in, so stock up on Full Restores, Max Potions and status cures in the lobby first.
- Heal at the lobby Pokémon Center for free before the first battle, because there is no healing between fights.
- Expect to face Lorelei, Bruno, Agatha and Lance before the Champion, and bring Pokémon covering Ice, Fighting, Ghost and Dragon types.
- The Poké Mart here sells Ultra Balls, Full Restores, Max Potions and Max Repels.
- After becoming Champion, the restricted Cerulean Cave opens up for the strongest wild Pokémon.
