lol It's been a while since I've played. I think my guys were around level 50 or 60 before I dared go up against the Elite 4 (really the Elite 5 with Gary). Make sure you have a psychic pokemon for the 3rd one since nothing else seems to work on ghosts. The hardest part of the game IMO is trying to get a balanced team. Most of the time it feels like it's easier to just build up one Pokemon and use to defeat large number of foes. It works in the early game. I remember beating several of Gary's pokemon with one higher level pokemon in Cerulean City early on. Of course you'd have to take into account that only a few types can do damge to ghosts and that you simply need a large number of higher level Pokemon to beat the higher level bosses but the point still stands that it's easier to get one high level Pokemon than a balanced team.
