Elite Four¶
The Elite Four are a region's final gauntlet: four elite trainers fought back to back, followed by the region's Champion. Each of the nine story regions has its own set.
To challenge them you must first clear all eight of that region's gyms and hold the full badge set. Defeating each Elite Four member sends you straight to the next, and beating the Champion at the end awards that region's Cup (worth 25,000).
Once beaten, the Champion (like the Gym Leaders) offers a tougher rematch version, tracked separately from your first win. Clearing champion rematches is part of what unlocks a region's endgame content, such as its roaming legendaries.
