Scarlet & Violet Elite Four and Top Champion
Each Paldea Elite Four ace has a Tera type that matches its member’s specialty, like Rika’s Ground Clodsire and Larry’s Flying Flamigo. Top Champion Geeta follows, and Nemona’s battle is a separate fight after the League.
The Scarlet & Violet Elite Four, battle by battle
Every team in party order, with its levels, its ace (the highest-level Pokémon) and the types that hit the most of it for 2×, each one at least half the team. One of the six Pokémon on Nemona’s team depends on the starter you chose; pick one to see that team.

Levels from the highest-level gym to Geeta
The top level on each team, in battle order. Stay at or below each number and your team never out-levels that battle.
From Grusha’s Lv 48 ace to Geeta at Lv 62 is a climb of 14 levels.
Types that cover the whole Scarlet & Violet League
Counted over all 26 Pokémon you face from the first Elite Four battle to Geeta. A tick means the type hits at least half of that team for 2×.
