Question

So I have beat all the Elite Four, but now im up to Lance.
He swept through my team with 3 pokemon, Im stuck.

My team at the moment is:
Typhlosion: Lvl 42
Lugia: Lvl 47
Ampharos: Lvl 43
Furret: Lvl 39
Gyrados: Lvl 38
Murkrow: Lvl 21

Am I under leveled? Should I lose to Lance and train up more? And what types/pokemon should I use against him?

Thanks~

Answer 1

Well, your Gyrados should know Ice fang which is super effective to dragons with 4 times the damage! However, to beat lance with Gyrados, he will have to be high-leveled(lvl 48-52 should work). If your Gyrados has an attack and speed nature, he won't have to be trained as much. When I used my Ampharos against lance and it proved pretty helpful too(it should be a lvl 46 and know Thunder which is sold at the Goldenrod Department store). Any Ice moves will work against Lance.

What about Dragon-type moves?They're super effective too.

Answer 2

If you already saved your game in the middle of the Elite Four you're a bit screwed. Lance's pokemon are Level 44-50 so your Furret, Gyrados and Murkrow will be toast.

You just came through Victory Road where there are plenty of pokemon way better than your Murkrow/Furret. Definitely train up your Gyarados and teach it an ice move. Ampharos will be great against his Gyarados and Aerodactyl and Charizard.

After that it's just Dragonite all the way out - ice moves are gonna win the day here. Lugia learns Ice Beam, Blizzard and Avalanche by TM.

Answer 3

I think just ice fang for gyrados or just lugia's blizzard wont be enough without long training. Teach both.You'll kill it man!

If you can level Gyarados to level 45-50+ and teach it dragon rage/claw, ice fang/blizzard you'll be sorted against his 3 dragonites, as for his charizard - use lugia's hydropump (don't want to exhaust Gyarados too much), his gyarados can be beaten by anything but gorund and Aerodactyls a little... you know... use a quagsire or something that deals water damage but isnt harmed by thunder fang as much as water pokemon.

Answer 4

Learn ice/dragon moves.

just teach your pokemon super effective moves

Answer 5

My team was almost the same. What I did was rely almost completly on lugia because the rest of my team was so weak. Then when he was weak or when he fainted I would us revives and full restores.

Answer 6

at least two of your pokemon should be level 60 and the rest 47 make sure you have pokemon with strong electric, rock, ice

Answer 7

yo dude listen i had the same problem, and yeha your murkrow is under leveld so any way ice moves are super efective so teach gyridos and lugia bllizard you dont need more then that

Answer 8

A nice tip would be to get a strong water pokemon like feraligator at a level between 50-55 with at least the moves surf and ice fang that will take care of the dragonites charizard and aerodactly and a good electric pokemon like electabuzz between the same levels that can help in taking out everybody else
