Pokémon Heart Gold & Soul Silver

The Elite Four in HeartGold & SoulSilver are positioned within the Indigo Plateau in Kanto. However, despite their positioning, you need to get all 8 Johto gym badges in order to access them. Once you have the 8 badges, you face a decent challenge.

Elite Four Member #1 - Will

Specialty Type: Psychic

The first Elite Four member you will battle is the new Elite Four member Will. He is a Psychic trainer so Dark and Bug type Pokémon would be the most logical choice here.


Will	Xatu Lv. 40	Jynx Lv. 41	Exeggutor Lv. 41	Slowbro Lv. 41	Xatu Lv. 42

Elite Four Member #2 - Koga

Specialty Type: Poison

The second elite four member you will face is the former gym leader of Fuchsia City; Koga. Koga keeps several of his Pokémon from FireRed & LeafGreen as well as some new ones and they're mostly of the Poison type.


Koga	Ariados Lv. 40	Venomoth Lv. 41	Forretress Lv. 43	Muk Lv. 42	Crobat Lv. 44

Elite Four Member #3 - Bruno

Specialty Type: Fighting

The third elite four member you will face is the only Elite Four member remaining from FireRed & LeafGreen. This trainer is Bruno and he keeps many of his FireRed & LeafGreen Pokémon. They're of the Fighting type so a Flying or Psychic type Pokémon would be logical.


Bruno	Hitmontop Lv. 42	Hitmonlee Lv. 42	Hitmonchan Lv. 42	Onix Lv. 43	Machamp Lv. 46

Elite Four Member #4 - Karen

Specialty Type: Dark

The final elite four member you will face is the another new member. This member, Karen, bases her team on the Dark type and features Pokémon that could be seen as Dark type. As such, your strategy has to adapt to it


Karen	Umbreon Lv. 42	Vileplume Lv. 42	Gengar Lv. 45	Murkrow Lv. 44	Houndoom Lv. 47

Champion - Lance

Specialty Type: Dragon

Finally, you battle the Champion of the league; Lance. Having seen him and battled alongside him, you know he has strong Pokémon on his side. His team is Dragon-centric so Ice Pokémon are a logical choice here as well as Electric Pokémon for his other Pokémon


Lance	Gyarados Lv. 44	Dragonite Lv. 49	Dragonite Lv. 49	Aerodactyl Lv. 48	Charizard Lv. 48	Dragonite Lv. 50

The Elite Four - Second Round

After you have obtained the eight badges of Kanto, you have the ability to fight the Elite Four again. However, this time, their Pokémon have levelled up and they even have some new surprises.
