Save right before fighting each person so you can easily soft reset when stone edge misses.

Aaron: His fastest Pokemon is a Drapion with 130 speed, so you need one X speed to outspeed the entire team. You need 2 swords dances to OHKO his entire team, partly because Heracross resists both STABs and is not weak to rock. After this battle, Torterra should have 211,693 experience, which puts it at level 60.

Bertha: Her fastest Pokemon is Whiscash with 87 speed, so you already outspeed her entire team. You need 2 swords dances to OHKO her entire team. After this battle, Torterra should have 231,413 experience, which puts it at level 61.

Flint: His fastest Pokemon is Infernape with 170 speed, so you need one X speed to outspeed his entire team. You need 1 swords dance to OHKO his entire team. After this battle, Torterra should have 243630 experience, which puts it at level 62.

Lucian: His fastest Pokemon is Alakazam with 167 speed, so you need one X speed to outspeed his entire team. Unfortunately, none of Torterra’s moves can OHKO Bronzong, even at +6 physical attack. His Bronzong doesn’t know any particularly dangerous moves, so you should have enough turns to use more swords dances and stone edges. After this battle, Torterra should have 254,126 experience, which puts it at level 63.sourcesourcesource

No, you probably wouldn’t. You would be fine off against Aaron, and Bertha, you could probably make it by Flint, with the help of the EXP you gained from the first battles, but have a roadblock in the form of Lucian. You also have to remember the Diamond and Pearl Elite 4 is the hardest Elite 4 in all the Pokémon games. So, even if you scraped by Lucian, you definitely wouldn’t be able to get by Cynthia. So, you would have to grind up more.

Hope I helped!
