Bring a LOT of healing items. Whatever team you beat the first Elite Four with should be sufficient, but unless you level them up to at least 55-ish, don't even bother, no amount of healing items will get you through Gary's team: I believe it's in the 70s.

The trick is .. to not waste your time. Status-inflicting moves, stat-raising moves, throw them out the window. You need brute force to take this crew down.

Lorelei: She's actually not that hard. If your Dragonite, assuming the team in your signature is the team you currently have, knows Thunderbolt, use that for the majority her team, save Piloswine and Jynx, which Flareon comes in handy for. You shouldn't have too much trouble with ann Electric-type attack.

Bruno: Use Flareon for his Steelix's, and Starmie's Psychic-type move, assuming you have one, for the rest of his team. He shouldn't be too much trouble.

Agatha: All of her Pokémon can taken down my Starmie if it knows a Psychic-type attack. If Nidoqueen knows Earthquake, that could come in handy aswell, although, only for Arbok, because the rest of them have the ability Levitate. For Misdreavus, just use a strong physical attack.

Lance: Again, Starmie is your best friend if it knows an Ice-type attack. Anything that attacks his team's weaknesses, which is Ice, Electric, and Rock. Meh, pick and choose for Lance.

Champion: Again, just use effective typings against him. Fearow for Heracross, Starmie for Charizard, Tyranitar, and Gyardaos? I'm not sure if he still has Gyarados, but yah. Mainly, just use types that are effective, and try not to waste time on one Pokémon, defeat them and move on.

If you're still having troubles, levelling up might be the key. You're probably just too low of a level to topple these guys, because they're really not that hard. :\
 
I think its
Dewgong Lv.64
Cloyster Lv.63
Piloswine Lv.64
Jynx Lv.65
Lapras Lv.66

Steelix Lv.65
Steelix Lv.66
Hitmonchan Lv.66
Hitmonlee Lv.65
Machamp Lv.67

Gengar Lv.66
Gengar Lv.69
Misdreavus Lv.66
Arbok Lv.67
Crobat Lv.68

Gyarados Lv.68
Aerodcatyl Lv.70
Dragonite Lv.69
Dragonite Lv.72
Kingdra Lv.69

Heracross Lv.72
Alakazam Lv.73
Tyranitar Lv.72
->(One of these gets replaced with the starter) Arcanine Lv.73
->(One of these gets replaced with the starter)Gyarados Lv.73
->(One of these gets replaced with the starter)Exeggutor Lv. 73
Charizard/Venusaur/Blastoise Lv.75

Some of these levels might be a bit off by one
 

Mew King

It's black magic!
I didn't even attempt it until I got a team of level 80's. Even then it was hard. I suggest using legendaries (Mewtwo among others) to beat them until you get a couple of level 100s.

just import some stronge pokemon from another game since you already have the national dex. it makes life a heck of a lot easer.

Yeah Most of the elite four members pokemon are on like lv 66 to 72 Up to lance. With the rival his pokemon are mostly on 72 to 75. So my advice is to train to lv 80 to 100. Thats what im doing. This is my 3rd time starting Over. this is my more matured and tatical and aniliticall way of playing the game.

train your pokes 70+ and just counter em =D

I like pie.
actually, with all my pokemon at lvl 61, i got all the way up to lance. the convenient thing about dragon types is that most of them are double weak to ice. use and ice type ev trained for speed and sp attk or else they will rip you apart before you even use ice beam. and remember, ice beam>blizzard. this doesn't work for kingdra though, since it's only weakness is dragon.

anyways, i'm currently training a new team to wipe the floor with these guys (especially gary with all his trash about being the best trainer in the world) but theoretically, you need at least lvl 65s. and don't ask me how i made this guess.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/recognition/29391.html?type=1 read this guy's walkthrough for firered and you can get some helpful strategies as well as levels and movesets for the e4's rosters. sorry, but you can't link directly to walkthroughs on gamefaqs. besides, i like this guys style of writing.

i apologize for this long post. i hope it helps enough to make up for it.

my suggested team (you need a few games)
espeon
jolteon
sneasel
lapras
charizard
what ever else
give sneasel brick brea/aerial ace he will whip eth eflor with most of the elite four(bruno lorelia and agahta if it has faint attack and if you have emerald move tuotro it ice punch theres all 4 of them to one poke)
 
The team I was
Charizard
Jolteon
Lapras
Tyranitar
Pidgeot
Bellosom

Hey, it works, I've beaten the second E4 19 times with this

The ultimate trainer
Once you beat the elite four twice do their pokemons levels rise again for the third time?
 
its not really hard when you have a well balenced poke team

IT'S ASHER JESUS!!!
It's easy if you know their pokemon and have at least 2 level 100's. But you think Lorelei is hard to beat the 2nd time you face her, you need much practice. You rivals pokemon are in the average 70's when you face him. My rival has a level 73 Heracross, 73 Alakazam, 72 Tyranitar, 75 Venusaur, 74 Gyarados, and a level 73 Arcanine. His team is quite well balanced if I do say so myself.
