I would start by getting your weavile up a bit more levels and if you got loads of money buy some iron and protein for your pokemon

 

[Skantid]

If your Torterra has a semi-decent attack stat, give it woodhammer instead of leaf storm and 10 more levels and it should be able to defeat the whole e4+champion by itself. That's how I did it.

Torterra's attack is bigger than its special attack; use leaf storm and its special attack becomes pure crap. Woodhammer is way better, more if it's using gigadrain to recover from recoil damage.

Those Pokemon were way tronger than mines were, I don't know how you keep losing. Anyways there's an RMT thread. I don't know what Helmasaur did to change your team other than showing higher levels, which you don't need.

Staraptor
-Brave Bird
-Close Combat
-Return
-filler

Infernape
-Close Combat
-Flame thrower
-Grass Knot
-u-turn

Torterra
-Wood Hammer
-Earthquake
-Stone edge
-filler

Wood Hammer is obtained through Heart Scale Move relearner. Leafstorm sucks on Torterra.

Weavle
-Night Slash
-Brick Break
-Aerial Ace
-Filler

It's only good ice move is an egg move.

Whoa, my team wasn't nearly that level when I beat the elite four.

 

[Tim Young]

Thunderdash, three problems:
Your Weavile is low, even for E4 standards.
You're using a Raichu.
You're using a Gastrodon.

Though I suppose Gastrodon is acceptable, pre-metagame.

Really I don't see how anyone with levels like your's and OP's can have trouble.

 

[Hubologist]

You know what I've been thinking about doing?

Leveling to 100 and EV training a strong Poke (like Starmie) and loaning it to people so they can beat the Elite Four. :lol:

I mean sure, that does get in the way of people learning to beat the E4 on their own, but they'll learn the ins and outs of strategy and training soon enough if they have any hope of defeating Tower Tycoon Palmer (for example).

I know I didn't learn squat from my battle with the E4. I just felt lucky at the end that I'd managed to beat them at with underleveled, non-EV trained Pokes and mediocre movesets. *scratches head*

Well the E4 was really the only time I felt any challenge whatsoever in the game, that's worth something.

 

[Ganondorf]

Yeah, it really is. For me it was the last thing standing between me and getting a bunch of legendaries, so it was tension at it's best.
