After spending 473 hours and 43 minutes (that is, almost 20 days consecutively)  in Pokemon HeartGold, this is what I got.

You can get this type of Trainer Card if you fulfill these conditions:
1. Enter the Hall of Fame
2. Complete National Pokedex
3. Win 100 victories in a row at the Battle Tower
4. Open the Friendship Room at the Pokeathlon Dome
5 Get your first crown on one of your Pokemon.



Firstly, I suggest you get these Pokemon first, because they are extremely strong Pokemon in Johto.
Try to get them first before you train the others.
1. Tyranitar - Rock, Dark
2. Typhlosion - Fire
3. Feraligatr - Water
4. Espeon - Psychic
5. Porygon2 - Normal
6. Ampharos - Electric
7. Scizor - Bug, Steel
8. Heracross - Bug, Fighting
9. Ursaring - Normal
10. Houndoom - Dark, Fire
11. Donphan - Ground
12. Slowking - Water, Psychic
13. Octillery - Water
14. Granbull - Normal
15. Piloswine - Ice, Ground
16. Sunflora - Grass
17. Sudowoodo - Rock


A. Enter the Hall of Fame

To enter the Hall of Fame, you need to beat the Elite Four and also the Champion in the Pokemon League. Just remember that you can't heal your Pokemon once you enter the door. Make sure that you buy lots of Full Restore (for HP) and plant Leppa Berries (for PP) earlier.

My party:
1. Jynx Lv 61 -  Blizzard, Avalanche, Confusion, Powder Snow
2. Hitmonlee Lv 60 -Close Combat, Mega Kick, Hi Jump Kick, Blae Kick
3. Haunter Lv 61 - Shadow Pulse, Dark Pulse, Nightare, Mean Look
4. Tyranitar Lv 61 - Eartquake, Stone Edge, Crunch, Dark Pulse
5. Heracross Lv 60 - Close Combat, Megahorn,  Take Down, Brick Break
6. Pidgeot Lv 39 - Fly, Wing Attack, Gust, Twister

Strategy:
Will - Use Tyranitar or Houndoom
Koga- Use Typhlosion, Espeon, Houndoom, or Slowking
Bruno - Use Espeon, Slowking, Feraligatr. Sunflora, Piloswine, Heracross, Donphan, Scizor
Karen - Use Heracross, Espeon, Slowking, Tyranitar, Ampharos, Piloswine, Sudowoodo
Lance - Use Tyranitar or Sudowoodo

So, I think the best Johto team for Pokemon League consists of Tyranitar, Typhlosion, Espeon, Feraligatr and Heracross. But you can always try your own combination.

In the end, you will enter the Hall of Fame.


B. Complete National Pokedex

This is, in my opinion, the hardest thing to do in the whole game. The last Pokemon that I need to complete the Pokedex is Lucario. I caught Rilou Lv 45 from the Safari Zone, and increase its happiness (Haircut in Goldenrod City, meet Daisy everyday around 3 pm to 4 pm in Viridian, give status boosted item, make it holding the Soothe Bell and always bring it to my party of six.)

Meet Professor Oak in Pallet Town and let him evaluate your National Pokedex.

C. Win 100 victories in a row at the Battle Tower

You need some strategies to conquer the tower. Train some Pokemon for BP (Battle Points) and let the move tutors in Battle Frontier teach strong moves to your Pokemon. Or you can exchange the BP for TM (Technical Machine).

Personally, I love to battle in Battle Hall, because it is easier to get BP there (during the 50th battle, where we need to fight the Hall Matron and get 20 BP later on.). Then, you can switch to other species and survive until the 50th battle again. Repeat these for a few times.

And I think Battle Factory is the easiest to get high amount of BP. But you need to have high knowledge of Pokemon species, type, abilities and their moves. This is because you cannot use your own Pokemon, but you will rent Pokemon from the Pokemon Factory.

Okay. Let's start with the Battle Tower. The rule is you need to survive through seven trainers (your Pokemon will be healed every end of the battle). You can bring your favourite three Pokemon. Once you lost, the counter will reset and you need to repeat it again until 100th row.

Strategy:
1. Use Pokemon with high speed. You also can use Quick Claw if you want.
2. Use many type of moves.
3 Try to minimise your weaknesses. For Electric Pokemon, you can use Magnet Rise.
4. Attack with special conditions - Sleep, Burned, Frozen, Paralyzed, Poisoned

Start your first 7 battles. And continue again for another 7 battles.

During your 21st battle, you will face the Tower Tycoon Palmer.
He will use Milotic, Rhyperior and Dragonite.
You can bring these Pokemon if you like:
Ludicolo/ Abomasnow/ Breloom/ Torterra/ Dewgong/ Cloyster/ Lapras/ Walrein/ Poliwrath/ Quagsire/ Swampert/ Whiscash/ Gastrodon/ Empoleon/ Mamoswine/ Lucario/ Steelix

For your 49th match, Palmer will use Heatran, Regigigas and ?????
You can use these Pokemon:
Quagsire/ Swampert/ Whiscash/ Gastrodon/Poliwrath


I always use my Venusaur, Typhlosion and Swampert for any Battle Frontier facilities.
Beat the the Battle Tower until the 100th times in a row, and you will upgraed your Trainer Card later on.
