How many tries?

[ugobama]

Hello people, I wanna Know how many times it took 4 you all to beat the Elite 4 in Pokemon Emerald.

I got through the Elite Four in one go but it took a few tries and adjusted strategy to defeat Wallace.

I got through the first time I battled them, but that was only because I saved after each battle, and could restart from the last person I beat if I lost to someone. If I had actually done it the way you're supposed to, starting over if you lost, it probably would have taken me about 30 tries.

You're very welcome, booman.

It's really very helpful, especially if you don't know what types you're facing in the next battle, because you can always start a battle to see what you're up against, and then restart and re-organize your team so that one that's strong against the next trainer's type is first.

I've also taught my pokemon new moves between battles, and then restarted if I didn't like the way the move was working for that particular Pokemon. That way you're not wasting a TM.

You save a lot of money on all the items you use too.

I don't actually have the Emerald, but in my Ruby I had my friend do it for me. (Too nervous to battle them myself)
