where can i level them up quickly? Grinding against Sidney is so boring and i swear i have beaten every trainer and have the exp.share

Sorry in advance if this is posted in the wrong place. In that case do you think you could move it for me?

Your levels are bit low for the Elite four and your moves on your Pokemon aren`t very strong because some have Hms, I would fly to the move deleter, delete some of those HMs, add new moves to replace the old ones, and then level up within victory road so you can get stronger.

uh, can you maybe give me some specific examples?
 
Frankly, your move composition in-game barely even matters. Just level-grind your team some more.
okay then. Those players who started with x and y better apreciate that they upgraded the experience share. Guess i will i have to grind against sidney for days on end, why did they design the game like that? That just seems so ridiculous doesnt it?

It's a JRPG, grinding is built into the formula - if you don't like it, this is the wrong franchise for you :p

Go beat any trainers you haven't battled yet, fight any recurring events you can. It's not hard to level up, and shouldn't even take that long.

Ignore my post if you've already beaten the Elite 4. However, assuming that you haven't...

Your levels are bit low for the Elite four and your moves on your Pokemon aren`t very strong because some have Hms, I would fly to the move deleter, delete some of those HMs, add new moves to replace the old ones, and then level up within victory road so you can get stronger.

I'd pretty much second everything that Rkwingman said here. Head to Victory Road and level up there. You can also take advantage of the Trainer's Eye to see who's ready to battle again.

Your movesets are actually pretty decent for in-game so there's not a whole lot I could suggest there, but it certainly doesn't hurt to get rid of the HMs and replace them with better attacks. Anything you put on would be useful so just cycle through your TM collection and see what each of your Pokemon can learn, then give them moves that will improve your team's overall type coverage. Also keep in mind that Gardevoir can learn Moonblast via the Move Relearner.

Failing all of that, abuse your Mega Stones relentlessly. :up:

Except their problem was re: Ruby, not OMEGA Ruby, Katie. XD

Either way, the idiot got banned by now, making this rather moot anyway. Lock'd!
