Poppy will be using four Pokémon against. In-between these battles, you can freely use items to enhance your Pokémon’s health and refresh their abilities, but you cannot use a Pokémon center. All of the Elite Four battles are back-to-back. Because these are all Steel-types, they will be immune to Poison-type attacks.
