Which Pokemon are most efficient at soloing Pokemon League rematches in Black 2 and White 2?
The fastest way to get the Challenge Medals in BW2 is to grind one or two Pokemon of a type and use them for the Elite 4 rematches. If one wanted to get all nineteen of these medals, which Pokemon would be the best to do so? Please list one to two per type, and mention in your answer:
For example, a recommendation of Excadrill would note that it’s one of the strongest Steel types in the game, allowing for easier completion of an otherwise difficult typing. This joined with a high Attack stat, STAB Earthquake, and dual typing makes it a premier choice for a challenge such as this.
Thanks in advance.

Here are what Ibelieveto be the best of each type
Normal: Braviary is chosen because of Marshals Fighting types.
Braviary Lvl. 80+Item: Choice Band/Muscle Band/LeftoversJolly NautreAbility: Doesn’t matter, Defiant if possible- Brave Bird/Fly- Return- Superpower- Shadow Claw
Braviary is unfortunately a White 2 Exlcusive however, so as a substitute here is an Unfezant set.
Unfezant Lvl. 90+Item: Choice Band/Muscle BandAdamant NatureAbility: Super Luck- Fly- Return- U-Turn- Roost/Steel Wing
Flying: Archeops is good, but don’t let it go under half its HP.
Archeops Lvl. 80+Item: Choice BandAdamant NatureAbility: Defeatist- Rock Slide- Fly- Crunch- U-Turn
Bug: Crustle has good typing for the E4.
Crustle Lvl. 80+Item: Choice BandAdamant NatureAbility: Shell Armor- X-Scissor- Shadow Claw- Earthquake- Aerial Ace
Rock: Archeops again.
Grass: Whimsicott has good move type diversity and speed.
Whimsicott Lvl. 80+Item: Choice Specs/LeftoversModest NatureAbility: Prankster/Infiltrator- Giga Drain- Psychic/Hurricane- Shadow Ball- Stun Spore/U-Turn/Leech Seed
Dark: Hydreigon, I left a set in the comments
Dragon: Hydreigon again.
Ghost: A tough region for the Ghost type, I think Chandelures, 140 Special Attack can get through.
Chandelure Lvl. 80Item: LeftoversModest/Bold NatureAbility: Flame Body- Flamethrower/Heat Wave- Shadow Ball- Psychic- Will O Wisp
Just power your way through Grimsley with Flamethrower.
Fire: Darmanitan is very powerful.
Darmanitan Lvl. 80+Item: Life Orb/Choice BandAdamant NatureAbility: Sheer Force- Fire Punch- Hammer Arm- Zen Headbutt- Earthquake/U-Turn
Ground: Excadrill has a nice dual typing that helps it resist dragon, psychic, dark and ghost! Just make sure to brute force your way through Marshal though with Earthquake.
Excadrill Lvl. 80+Item: Choice BandAdamant NatureAbility: Sand Force- Earthquake- Brick Break- Rock Slide- Shadow Claw
Steel: Excadrill again, though Lucario could probably solo well too.
Lucario Lvl. 80+Item: Choice SpecsModest NatureAbility: Inner Focus- Aura Sphere- Shadow Ball- Psychic- Dragon Pulse
Fighting: Lucario again.
Psychic: Metagross. I probably don’t need to explain why.
Metagross Lvl. 80+Item: Choice BandAdamant NatureAbility: Clear Body- Meteor Mash- Zen Headbutt- Brick Break- Earthquake
Water: Samurott due to its good type diversity, and high offensive stats.
Samurott Lvl. 80+Item: Choice Specs.Modest NatureAbility: Torrent- Scald- Ice Beam- Air Slash- Hidden Power Fighting/X-Scissor
Ice: Lapras has good typing and move diversity that makes it a good candidate for the best Ice type for the Unova E4
Lapras Lvl. 80+Item: Choice Specs/LeftoversModest NatureAbility: Shell Armor- Ice Beam- Psychic- Signal Beam- Thunderbolt
Electric: Not the best choices, but I think Galvantula can preform well.

Posion: There are no really good poison attackers before Gen 5, but Crobats solid.

Alright, that’s all of them, please tell me if you think these did well, or if there are any issues, moveset wise, or if there’s a better Pokémon.
