One will be able to handle almost her entire team, though if you brought a solid Alolan Raticate or Pokémon with Dark-type moves, that'll do fine against the two Gengars. That means Ground-type Pokémon shine here. Even pure Poison-types like Arbok and Weezing know Dark or Ghost-type moves that will devastate a Psychic gambit. Her Ghost-type army would be better described as a Poison-type army, but don't even think of bringing a Psychic-type Pokemon in here. Again, Slowbro or Starmie are great choices here, but you can also just bring out another Water-type or even a Grass-type to take out Onix's rocky frame.Īgatha, like Sabrina to the Gym Leaders, is the mid-point terror of the Elite Four simply because so little is good against her Pokémon. Onix is the odd one out, and it's usually the Pokémon Bruno opens with.

I don't recommend a Flying-type for his team, as most of them know Rock or other moves that will take them out of the sky with ease. If you bring a Psychic/Water to the bout like Starmie or Slowbro to cover both bases, that's great, but be careful around Hitmonchan's Thunder and Ice Punch moves. A strong Psychic-type will easily handle Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Poliwrath, and Machamp. Brunoīruno's jam is Fighting-type Pokémon but like Lorelei, he can be a bit inconsistent. Jinx is the one Pokémon you're safe bringing out a Fire or Ground-type against, unless you want to focus on the Psychic weakness and use a Dark-type Pokémon instead.

Slowbro is a Water/Psychic and doesn't actually know any Ice-type moves - he knows Psychic, Surf, and Flamethrower, and can be tackled with a Dark-type Pokémon or another Pokémon he's not strong against that knows Dark-type moves.

As a result, it's smart to rely on a strong Electric-type Pokémon for this fight, namely either your starting Pikachu or, for Let's Go! Eevee players, something like a Magneton, Raichu, or similar.ĭewgon, Cloyster, Slowbrow, and Lapras can all be taken care of with a few Thunderbolts.

Lorelei's focus is on Ice-type Pokémon, so it would seem logical to combat them with Fire or Ground-types, right? But unfortunately, she's prepared for that, as four out of her five team members are dual Water-type Pokémon and will know just the moves to keep you from unleashing either of those strategies.
