The Elite Four (Japanese: 四天王 Four Heavenly Kings) are four Pokémon Trainers who are regarded as the toughest in their regional Pokémon League, short of League Champion. Those who challenge the Elite Four must have achieved all eight Badges from that region and face all four and the current Champion consecutively without losing to any of them. One group resides on Indigo Plateau in Kanto, and are considered the best trainers in both Kanto and Johto; another is in Ever Grande City in Hoenn; and the last known one is in the unnamed Pokémon League in Sinnoh.

Sinnoh Elite Four
Generation IV
In Generation IV, the Elite Four in Pokémon League consists of:
In the anime
Ash and his friends often meet the members of the Elite Four, who then impart them with battle strategies. So far, Ash has only met the complete Kanto group, meeting Lorelei in The Mandarin Island Miss Match, Bruno in To Master the Onixpected, Agatha in The Scheme Team and Lance in Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution. Ash has also met Koga in The Ninja Poké-Showdown, though merely for the Fuchsia Gym Badge, Drake in Vanity Affair, Wallace in Our Cup Runneth Over!, Lucian in An Elite Meet and Greet, and Cynthia in Top-Down Training.
It has been hinted at by Lucian in An Elite Meet and Greet! that when a trainer wins their respective region's Conference Tournament that they can participate in the Elite Four Challenge, fighting the four members of that region's Elite Four, and then possibly the Champion as well.
Trivia
- In the Generation I games, the type specialties of the Elite Four were in ascending order by type-advantage: Lorelei's Template:Type2s are weak to Bruno's Template:Type2s, Agatha's Template:Type2s are resistant to Bruno's Fighting-types, and Lance's Template:Type2s have superior strength over Agatha. In Generation II, the order was reversed: Will's Template:Type2s are strong against Koga's Template:Type2s, which are strong against Bruno's Fighting-types, which are strong against Karen's Template:Type2s. This pattern repeated in Generation III, with Dark, Ghost, Ice and Dragon. However, Generation IV's Elite Four possess no obvious weakness or strength over the member before or after them.
- Ash has met all members of the original Kanto Elite Four as well as the anime counterpart to its champion, Blue, his own rival Gary Oak. Of the Generation II group, Ash has met Koga, who was merely a Gym Leader the last time he was seen, Bruno, who is also a member of the Generation I group, and Lance. Of the Hoenn and Sinnoh Elite Four, Ash has only so far met the fourth member and the Champion, meeting Drake, Steven, and Wallace, and later Lucian and Cynthia.
- As of Generation IV, Champion Lance has the lowest average level, and Champion Cynthia has the highest average level in the player's first battle with them.
- Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire are the only games in which the Champion has a type theme but does not share the type theme with a Gym Leader in the same region. This is, of course, undone when Wallace assumes the championship in Pokémon Emerald.
