Rock Gym Leaders are Pokémon Trainers that specialise in the training and battling with Rock Type Pokémon. They proved their ability and have become leaders of a City Gym. The Elite Four are four trainers who are considered the best in their region and some specialise in Rock Pokémon.
Throughout the Pokémon game series, players have to defeat Gym Leaders before challenging the Elite Four and finally the existing Champion in order to win the games. Within the games, a number of Gym Leaders and Elite Four member only use Rock type Pokémon.
To have the best chance of defeating Rock Gym Leaders and Elite Four, the player’s team should include those Pokémon types that are strong when attacking Rock types – Fighting, Grass, Ground, Steel and Water type Pokémon or those that are resistant to attack by Rock types – Flying, Ground and Steel type.
Detailed below is a complete Rock Elite Four and Gym Leaders list, with information about that Trainer and the Pokémon they typically use in battles.
