Description And here is Elite Eight and its powerful members!

Man! This took me longer than I would have thought but I am VERY pleased with the outcome. I learned a lot while making this. One of my personal favourites absolutely.

So, let's not waste any time!
~~~~~~~~~~
What is Elite Eight?
- Elite Eight (or E8 for short) is a group of eight most powerful pokemon Jenna had trained during her travels in four regions. After Jenna retired from traveling and training, these pokemon knew that some of their master's new pokemon would like to show their skills. So, they decided to found the E8 and chose two most powerful pokemon from each of Jenna's teams from all four regions.

Any pokemon could challenge them and try to climb up from the bottom to the top (you have to beat the lower member in order to challenge the next). What makes it so hard is that the pokemon should manage to defeat them all so type disadvantages are sure to come. The challenger is not expected to defeat all of them in a row of course. And losing doesn't drop him/her back to the beggining. At last, he/she who manages to beat them all, receives the champion title of the ranch. So far, only two pokemon have managed to beat all eight members; Veruka's mother and Matthew. Matthew would be the current champion but he gave up on the title so there is no champion at the moment.

Members:

#1: Trevor the Treecko
- Trevor is the only one who hasen't actually beaten a real Elite four but his mother did and she was the original number one. After she passed away, her son took her place as the first member. Trevor is not the hardest to beat but he should not be underestimated. Trevor is also known as NFE master as all of his opponents have had to evolve (obviously not counting those who don't evolve) in order to beat him, except for one certain murkrow...

#2: Rick the Furret
- Rick comes from Johto and despite his cute looks, he's not an easy opponent. Rick will fall easily if you get a good hit on him but hitting him is the hardest part! Rick is really fast and will wear his opponents down with his speed and substitute attack.

#3: Marth the Dewgong
- Marth comes from Kanto and he provides an interesting battle. The battle takes place at the beach where Marth clearly has the home advantage. He also wears a nevermeltice item which boosts his ice attacks.

#4: Pandora the Luxray
-Pandora comes from Sinnoh and she takes her battles seriously. She is constantly trying to prove herself in the group. Being the only female doesn't help either. She is especially pissed off being under Stab who she really can't stand thus she is always trying to beat him to receive his place. Their relationship is quite interesting though because they actually have a shiny shinx cub (named Wattson) thanks to a one-night stand.

#5: Stab the Absol
- Stab comes from Hoenn and outside of battle he appears as a nice gentle absol but in battles... He gets crazy. Stab only accepts battles at night time. He finds it funny how much Pandora tells that she hates him.

#6: Hurley the hitmontop
-Hurley comes from Johto and he has managed to earn the sixth place in the group thanks to his battle style. Unlike any hitmontop, Hurley doesn't spin (it makes him queasy) but his punches are as powerful as any hitmonchan's and his kicks are as powerful as any hitmonlee's. Plus, his determination keeps him battling no matter how bad things look like.

#7: Alfonso the Hippowdon
- Alfonso comes from Sinnoh and he is the powerhouse of the group. Outside of battle Alfonso loves to sleep but in battles he's like a completely different hippowdon. He unleashes his massive strength and one hit from him could be very fatal. His only weakness is his low speed.

#8: Leopold the Charizard
- Leopold comes from Kanto and is the eight and final member of the group. Being Jenna's first pokemon he has a lot of battle experiance behind and he's easily the hardest member to beat. He is fast, strong and clever in battle. So far, he has lost only twice.

Champion: No one currently

Phew! That's the Elite Eight! Think you can beat them?

Sora-kingdomheart70 In reply to BuizelxFanxClub [2011-10-01 01:34:36 +0000 UTC]

I think not. BehindtG specifically said that she won't trade with anyone in her FAQ. Plus Rick is a story character, so I doubt even more that she would part with Rick, because I know I wouldn't.

Of COURSE a Golurk could beat them. Heck, Specter, my Hydregon, would have an easy time with most of them...except Marth.

True, but I trust Specter, and his moves cover most of these...but nothing can get rid of a Dragon's weakness to Ice except speed, and he's slow as hell....Kaiser, on the other hand.....

heh this is awesome
maybe with my superpowered mix team... or rocky... damn that rocky... i could beat the elite eight... and hilljones... damn him too...
i like the background on leopold. the whites in the fire and the black background give the illusion of light and the look in his face is just paw class...
and stab... that look is just nosfaratu vampire and freddy krueger and evil flippy and three different types of werewolf in a blender... and the full moon... *shivers*
again this is awesome.
ps today i saw someone who looked like jenna from the random doom series. just sayin', th'sall.

awww wow this is amazing! I love your comics and your drawing and colouring style. Just a quick question, i looked through the Bio's and can't find one of stab and pandora's child, i assume she probably doesn't mean much to the comic's current stories, but will we ever get to see you draw thier shiny shinx cub? Keep up your amazing art!

+I like the style

yeah there could be only 1 tip I could give you, because from praising you to heaven you wouldn't learn much so
Yeah you could maybe have added some scars or something on charizard to show he has experienced so many battles..
But how it is now it is awesome I meant it more like, an idea or like what I would have done if I could draw like you..

Hmm... True, he is suppose to be old so some battle scars would make it even better (he has one scar on his left eye (which we OF COURSE can't see here)).

This reminds me of DJHermo's book, in that, Team zero is the equevalents to your E8. they're called Team zero because neither of them have ever lost, not even once. from the order he has listed it goes from kanto- Unova (he updated it a day after when uoa was introduced in japan.)

Gene the Mew (Shiny)
Chase the Celebi (Shiny)
Serpent sea the Milotic
Aura the Lucario
Shadow the Zoroark.

Speaking of Marth, I can't decide which panel is my favorite, his or Leopold's. Love the lighting!
