Stop while you're not so far behind.

how the fuck is that even possible, you don't train, so your pokémon might be bit low leveld wich is not problem with the right movesheets and items most of time but you don't use items so it's all about the movesheet wich isn't too impresive most of times

1- how the fuck can you beat the elite four with those pokémons
2- how the fuck can you be not trainin with beatin the elite four with those pokémon and not gainin a lot of levels and thats pretty much trainin

thats where ev comes in wich i do but cant explain

I EXP Share train my pokemon.

Basically, I put exp share on the first pokemon in the party and switch my starter out on the first move. Since my starter gets experience from literally every pokemon battle, it's like 20 level above my other pokemon, which are about the level of the opponents I'm facing. Therefore, if my empoleon somehow dies, my Staraptor alone (which is also higher than my other pokemon) should be able to finish the job. If not, my other 4 pokemon are all on the same level, so they can battle normally.

If that doesn't work, I always have a level 100 Arceus I can use.

I might just add that any Level 100 pokemon can easily wipe out the E4. Just saying.

any level 100 pokemon can wipe out anybody in the game

...except a rotom (It was a "Mowtom", to be exact.)
I was playing against a friend in a casual battle

it was my team and my lvl 100 arceus (with no plates on)
versus her level 100 team and a level 10 or so rotom

her team wiped mine out except arceus, who could 1 hit every one of her pokemon.
except rotom.

Without plates, none of my attacks affected rotom, and none of its attacks could hit arceus.
Every battle ended in a draw.

I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever have to pokemon battle you for whatever reason.

Your Arcues moveset must really suck because he can learn Shadow Claw among a whole lot of other moves. Having just normal type attacks is a really bad idea.

its only real attack was Judgement.
The rest were health restorers like rest.

It was basically a "run opponent out of moves and force them to struggle" pokemon.

isn't that what everyone does (besides ev trainers)?

I suppose, but I way overlevel my starter and my backup is about 10 levels higher. It's a bit more strategic, but yeah.

Why bother if it's still unstable? You might as well wait.
