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?

This is a really long picture that really suits the PokΓ©mon you're showing. The best part is where you outline the relantionship relationship Stab and Pandora.

TamarinFrog In reply to lugia2darklugia [2010-12-30 11:03:56 +0000 UTC]
I don't have much experience with CS4 but I'm sure it is very good. Ah, explaining all the effects in this picture would take too much time and quite honestly... I don't even remember how I did them all. I was pretty much fooling around with photoshop. BUT here's a little advice. Use google and search photoshop tutorials. In this picture, I used many tutorials for fire and lights. Just google "Photoshop [insert the stuff you want] tutorial" and you will get TONS of nice tutorials.

First of all, awesome picture! I mean, like, awesome! My favorite is Stab, mostly because it is an Absol.
You could maybe beat them with a modest Charizard trained to maximum Sp. Attack and Speed (defences are set to their most possible extent). Moveset could be Sunny Day, AncientPower, SolarBeam, and Fire Blast. Charizard would hold a Focus Sash for survivability, so it could at least be ensured a Sunny Day. Also, Charizard's ability Blaze would be activated, powering up His Fire Blast, which gets STAB. Of course, Rick may cause problems with Substitute and apparent Double Team (If I'm looking at the picture correctly, but Sunny Day makes Fire Blast a sure hit, so...). Then that just brings Alfonso. I can't say for sure what would happen because I don't know what happens when Sunny Day is used during Sand Stream... Then at Leopold, AncientPower with no Sunny Day will be very helpful and if Leopold isn't KOed (which it probably won't in one hit without a Critical Hit), Charizard's stats may be escelated. This could possibly ensure a win.
Anywho, that is what I would use. It would take a long time to do all of this since you would have to go through all the breeding and then the EV grinding, but it would be SO worth it... I guess I just picked Charizard because of his somewhat balanced stats and pure power.

It was said that Napolien wanted to become a member of the E8. How would one go about doing that? Do you have to beet one and lower his rank? If you did this, would Trever cese to be a mamber due to there not beeing a lower rank beneeth him?

It's interesting to see a normal type on an elite list. I'm guessing Veruka will challenge them at some point, and Vincent if he learns to control his powers.

Cool team! But I bet, despite the amount of power andbattle skills your character have, I bet if the Shadow Squad (my created team, made up of a Sableye, Totodile*, Pikachu*, Loudred, Abra, Porygon Z, Misdreavus*, Dusknoir, Chansey, Magmar, Heracross and Magnezone) came into a battle against these guys, the result would be rather interesting...

hmm.....i like them all especially the charizard, Leopold. i like his pose, actually i like all of the pokemon's poses and i admire how you made Pandora the Luxray look fearsome....
have you all noticed when you have a luxio, or a luxray the female's mane is shorter than the male's. if you noiced that, then look on a girl shinx and compare her to the male. hey, even the shinx have differences!!!

Teh-Lucario [2010-10-17 16:49:25 +0000 UTC]
Hmm. Well for me, the first two are easy. Trevor would be downed by my typhlosion, Ty, and then I's have Lu, my lucario, take out Rick (Aura Sphere, never misses and downs normal types). Then it gets tricky. I guess Lu would take out Marth with an aura sphere as well. Pandora I would probably send my Swampert, Swamps, to deal with her, since his only weakness is grass and he has a powerful earthquake. Stab would have to deal with Lu. Then there's Hurley. I'd have to say my Latios (no nickname). Alfonso would have to face my Torterra, Ter, who has powerful grass moves and is immune to the Sandstorm effect.
Now for Leopold, given that A) he's a charizard and B) he's the strongest one on the team, I'd probably have to send out Latios again, since his Dragon Pulse has been able to deal some massive damage, and then his Draco Meteor is a deadly finisher.
But that's just my attempt.

TamarinFrog In reply to Teh-Lucario [2010-10-18 07:24:56 +0000 UTC]
But the trick was that ONE pokemon should be able to defeat them all! Thus, type disadvantages are sure to come. But meh, this is made for my comic series.

Teh-Lucario In reply to TamarinFrog [2010-10-18 14:04:20 +0000 UTC]
AH! I see. OK, Uh. That makes things difficult. I guess I'd go with either my Latios or Lucario since they know some really powerful moves.

Isaac(Gallade): Best not to get overconfident, Ironhide.
Jenna(Mismagius): Isaac's right, big guy. I hate to say it, but not even you and Tenebrae combined can beat all of them and you two have Head Smash and Brave Bird!
Tenebrae(Honchkrow): Not to mention you still need to beat Adell and Commander Omega.
Ironhide: Bunch of killjoys...
