Welcome to the land of Johto! In this land you will experience ancient ruins, towering mountains, beauitful caves, raging lakes, towers that reach up to the sky and sea caves that stretch down to the center of the earth!

However, among all this majestic beauty and awe inspiring power their is an elite group of 8 Pokemon masters. these pokemon masters are skilled in each type of pokemon and are the strongest with that single type in the land! If you mange to somehow defeat these 8 experts you will then face the hardest challenge yet..... The ELITE FOUR! These ridiculously powerful trainers have honed their skils so much that they are the strongest trainers in the land! I would say what would happen if you beat the Elite Four but....Ha..there is no point, you would never do it...... however if the unimaginable did happen...... The Champion will be waiting!

A short history of Johto
1500 years before modern times, the place now known as the Ruins of Alph was built in Johto, and the earliest known system for writing—the modern Latin alphabet—was developed. Although no one knows exactly who built the Ruins of Alph, research indicates that the people in question were an ancient civilization that wished to co-exist with the enigmatic Unown that bear great similarity to the alphabet letters. Not only did that tribe impart messages on the ruins' walls describing the Unown, but they also erected a Pokémon statue for an unknown reason.
At some point later, outsiders began to gather near the ruins. As the Unown were timid creatures, they rejected contact with anyone but the clan that protected them. To ensure the Unown's well being, the Ruins of Alph's inhabitants decided to leave the region, but not without devising complicated puzzles so that one day the Unown could be summoned again. As for the clan, their quest led them to a mountain far to the north, where they met another group of people who had hailed from the Spear Pillar. Together, the two groups built a temple in honor of Arceus, which incorporated elements from both the Ruins of Alph and the Spear Pillar; this collaboration probably has to do with the underlying relationship between Arceus and the Unown. The temple, too, has since been left in ruins and its lowest floor is now known as the Sinjoh Ruins; however, the ritual of honoring legendary Pokémon through dance circulated back to Johto, specifically to Ecruteak City.
Approximately 700 years before modern times, the people of Ecruteak built two nine-tier towers with the hopes of fostering friendship and hope between Pokémon and humans. They were the Brass Tower in the west, which was said to awaken Pokémon, and the Bell Tower in the east, where Pokémon were said to rest. Both towers became the roost of powerful flying Pokémon: Lugia and Ho-Oh, respectively. It is unknown what made the residents revere Lugia and Ho-Oh, but a separate tale indicates that Lugia had previously had an encounter with the people of Johto when it stopped a war on the Whirl Islands, which were a single island at that time.

The towers stood strong for about 550 years, when a lightning bolt struck the Brass Tower. It was engulfed in flames that raged for three days. A sudden downpour finally put out the blaze, but it had already burnt to the ground. Three nameless Pokémon perished in the fire, but Ho-Oh descended from the sky and resurrected them. The revived Pokémon were made to embody three powers: the lightning that struck the tower, the fire that burned the tower, and the rain that put out the fire. When the Pokémon appeared, they struck terror in those who saw their rise. The three Pokémon, knowing their own power, fled, running like the wind off into Johto's grassland. Similarly, both Lugia and Ho-Oh flew away at the sight of the growing distance between people and Pokémon; while they never returned to Ecruteak, they yearned for a person to touch the hearts and souls of Pokémon once more.
Around these times other, smaller events occurred. 500 years before modern days, the Cianwood City Pharmacy, the world's oldest pharmacy, was built. Around 400 years ago, Azalea Town in Johto was struck by a long-term drought wave; after bringing the rain back once again by yawning, Slowpoke gained an honorable position in that town.
In contemporary history, Ethan/Kris/Lyra leaves New Bark Town on an errand for Professor Elm. A red-haired boy steals one of Elm's three Pokémon, and challenges him/her as Ethan/Kris/Lyra's journey across Johto continues. A revived Team Rocket from the Kanto, using plans formulated three years prior, enrages many Gyarados, including a red one, at the Lake of Rage; they then proceed to take over the Goldenrod Radio Tower in a desperate attempt to contact Giovanni. When they are defeated and Giovanni fails to return due to Celebi's intervention, the interim leader, Archer, vows to never again re-form Team Rocket. Ethan/Kris/Lyra continues to gather Johto's badges, eventually gaining all eight and traveling to the Pokémon League at the Indigo Plateau in Kanto, later to defeat the current Champion and get into the Hall of Fame.
But Ethan/Kris/Lyra's most notable effect on Johto lies in their ability to encounter all three of the legendary beasts, as well as summon the Unown, Lugia and Ho-Oh after their long absence. A new chapter in the region's history begins.

Welcome to the Elite 4. We have the honor of this title simply because we are the strongest trainers in all of Johto! I am the first one here, and if you beat me, then there are more challenges ahead. I have trained from when a trainer called Gold beat me a few years back. I have learned through many hardships and have trained my psychic pokemon to their prime forms.The other members of the elite four claim to be the strongest, but the truth remains, we are all equally strong, but it depends on your heart. I have let my heart go all out for my psychic pokemon, so they are very strong. Now, challenger, let us see which one of us is the stronger one!

Gym Status:Open. PM me if you need a battle and we'll schedule it out.

Wins:0 Losses:0 Draws:0​

hey, so you beat all the gym leaders I heard. I am Bruno of the Elite 4. It is an honor to see one more person here at the Johto league. I have trained in many styles of fighting for years. I am one of the strongest trainers in johto, and possibly, the world. Are you ready? You better hope you're lucky (well, 10 consistant crits would be too much luck. i would redo the battle, no matter who gets all those crits), cause you'll need it.




some rules id like to go over for my E4:

- no resistance teams. that means no teams may have 2 or more psychic or flying type pokemon on their team. though you have unlimited flying and psychic type moves. gyrados will not count as flying.

-Hax rule: only 1 pokemon can be frozen at one time

-Hax rule: only 1 pokemon may be asleep at 1 time (does not include rest, or effect spore)

-Hax rule: only 2 pokemon may be poison, burned or paralyzed at 1 time. (does not include toxic or flame orb, poison point, or flame body)

-Hax rule: if one battler gets at least 3 crits that mattered, the other person may decide if they want to battle again. this does not count frost breath or storm throw, as they are always crits. watch what you are holding ;D

-If it ends in a tie between us, i will decide if yr stragedy was good enough to pass (by tie means, life orb, destiny bond, explosion, burn, etc.)

-have fun

-no ubr pokemon mentioned in the first post, as well as pokemon with moody, and the combos drizzle+swift swim and sandstream+sand rush. they are very powerful. drought+chlorophyll is not banned, but chlorophyll venasaur is. though you may use sandstorm or rain dance if you'd like.

-again, have fun. and sorry about all of the rules, but i want us to have a very fair match.

-lastly, do not tell anyone mine or any other e4 or leaders team or i will report to Prof to see yur punishment

So, you've managed to receive all of the gym badges. Well, good for you. But there weren't much of a challenge. Now that you have arrived at the Elite 4, you will taste defeat. Only few have defeated me, a few of the greatest trainers of all time! But it won't be that easy for you. Be prepared to get intoxicated after every step. So get ready for a battle you will never forget!
