These are the rules for challenging the Elite Four!
1) Any one challenging the Elite four must have obtained 8 Gym badges!
2) Any draws shall be considered void, the challenger maybe re-battle at will.
3) A Draw with the Champion is a loss to the challenger
4) Elite Four members must be battled in order, a full loss means they must restart again.
5) Only Items may be changed between battles - changing you team will result in you previous Elite Four wins being voided.
6) Soft Reset: The challenger may ask for their previous battle to be voided and a rematch to be scheduled:
- Once per Elite Four Challenge (Ex: if the challenger looses to Elite Four #2 they may ask for a rematch instead of starting a #1 again but if they loose to #3 the must start over)
- Once per Champion challenge (Even if you used a "Soft Reset" in the Elite Four you may still "soft reset" here too)
7) Clauses are only in effect upon the discretion of the Elite Four Member
