What type panel does a 4 pole breaker require?
The panel and breaker have to be of the same manufacturer. This way the breaker will fit into the panel. If the panel has a push in bus bar, the breaker must also be the type to accept the bus bar.

How do you connect 200amp from main panel to sub panel to the lug of the min panel to lug of sub panel?
Not exactly sure what your question is and you need to make sure you are in compliance with electrical code for your jurisdiction. But, generally speaking you install a large breaker (let's say 100A 2 pole breaker to power the sub panel) just as you would install any other breaker in the presently used (hot) panel, and the proper sized cable then goes from old to new and terminates on the main lugs of the new panel. Ground and neutral are usually isolated from each other in the sub panel but depends on other factors as to location of the sub panel, etc.

Can a breaker box remote or pulley be allowed to raise to any height being attached manually?
I know of no code restrictions on making a panel movable except that the panel must be accessible, meaning not requiring the removal of anything to get to it, and no breaker can be higher than 6' 7''. That pretty much eliminates the possibility of doing what you ask.
