The most pokemon pisses you off!!

[DiabloMask]

Hi guys
you know, there are too many pokemons
you dont wanna fight in the game, and you always avoid the places
where they exist, cause they piss you off...

For me, the most one i dont like to fight is Gastrodon, it pisses me off when i fight it with a strong pokemon and cannot knock it down with less than 5 or 6 attacks! it has a strong deffense!

The other one is Bronzor, i dont know the reason, but every time i fight it
i have a hard time trying to knock it down!

Going to move this to PGC because this has been a...well, feature of Pokemon games ever since the days of RBY (Tentacool and Zubat, here's looking at you). Even BW has this issue (arguable more annoying as the geodude replacement, although not one to explode in your face, cannot be OHKO'd thanks to its ability).

I'll also point out the obvious solution of investing in Repels. Also Bronzor is a defensive Pokemon so that may explain why you find it hard to KO (certainly if you don't use super effective moves either).

^ Repels are for losers, Marcin my dear. Why pay to miss out on experience and even a possible shiny? No thanks!

Biggest pain in the butt is Boldore. That ability is just really annoying. :<

I very often end up spamming Max Repels while in caves and while Surfing. The Pokemon don't give enough experience to bother battling. Wandering through caves, I constantly run into Zubat, and Woobat. So annoying!!! Surfing, there's Tentacool. Again, annoying. Of course, in B/W we run into Basculin while surfing, which give somewhat decent experience. But, they still become quite an annoyance.

Tentacool. Sweet Jesus all the Tentacool...

I started trying to play my Soul Silver again, and while trying to get to certain water destinations this is the common process.

Activate surf. Move one space... TENTACOOL BATTLE! Move three spaces... TENTACOOL BATTLE! Move one space... TENTACOOL BATTLE!

By the time I move 10 squares on the map I have already fought like 10 Tentacool!

Yeah i understand your feelings
i even caught Tentacool 3 times without knowing
that i already have it!
but Geodude becomes more annoying sometimes
especially when you walk in a cave! sometimes i dont
even have to move, only looking right or left and i fight Geodude!
Zubat appears sometimes too in the caves, but Geodude
appears everywhere in the map!
i was looking once for Scarmory in the grass in Silver
and i fought about 20 Geodudes and Gravelers!

I don't mind running into a lot of wild Pokemon. I don't mind Geodude, or Tentacool, or anything.
I have a fear of running into a wild Wobbuffet without a strong enough Pokemon to defeat it, though. ._.

 

[Weavile05]

Even BW has this issue (arguable more annoying as the geodude replacement, although not one to explode in your face, cannot be OHKO'd thanks to its ability).

Actually, Geodude has Sturdy too. But back when Geodude were common Sturdy only worked on moves like sheer cold. So in places like Challenger's cave, where Graveler are somewhat common, you get Sturdy AND exploding in your face. Luckily you aren't required to go to Challenger's Cave.

I'll tell you a funny story... Wobbuffet knocked out my LV99 Nidoking
with one attack!!! don't ask me how! cause i don't know myself!
since that time i never tried to fight it again.

 

[BHwolfgang]

I avoid most caves altogether. However, the sea cannot be ignored~ I actually find it fun to battle Tentacools, especially since I always have at least a Psychic or Electric type with me. Golbats give 2 spd EV so I never complain.

The only thing that annoys me are the Boldores/Woobats. I guess I got used to Geodudes/Gravelers, seeing as I had to deal with them for about a decade, but these new Pokemons are really irritating me. :c

 

[bobandbill]

^ Repels are for losers, Marcin my dear. Why pay to miss out on experience and even a possible shiny? No thanks!

Which is normally why I don't bother with repels myself (unless I'm chaining for shiny Pokemon anyway). =p But it is a solution, albeit an expensive one. Not that money is much of a problem in Pokemon games.

Actually, Geodude has Sturdy too. But back when Geodude were common Sturdy only worked on moves like sheer cold. So in places like Challenger's cave, where Graveler are somewhat common, you get Sturdy AND exploding in your face. Luckily you aren't required to go to Challenger's Cave.

Yeah, that's true - it's more the ability change that did it. Thing is (thus far anyways) Geodude is a Pokemon you're far less likely to encounter overall than Boldore during the average play-through given it is only in one optional cave.

Ah yes... Counter/Mirror Coat (especially when used by a Wobbuffet) can completely destroy a pokemon in one hit.
My Cradilly rocks Mirror Coat, and trust me, nobody ever sees it coming until it's too late. ;P

 

[PlatinumDude]

Geodude, Zubat, Tentacool, Woobat and Boldore. Those Pokemon show up at the worst times.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

Boldore. It's bad enough they gave it Sturdy. But then when it attacks with something like Mud Slap and you end up missing your next four turns even though it's only at 1 HP while it proceeds to slaughter you with repeated Rock Slides... yeah, that's the ultimate in annoying. At least they don't blow up, but I ran from all the Gravelers in Challenger's Cave because they *do* go boom.

 

[Perriechu]

Ugh, a lot of Pokemon, really. ;-; Pokemon with only 1 weakness, i.e Scizor, Forretress, Swampert, Quagsire and Gastrodon (There are more, but they're the main ones) I find during In-game plays that Bronzong, Bronzor, Skuntank, Drapion (Yes, Sinnoh annoys me so much!) I guess really defensive Pokemon that sit there and are like hurr hurr +6 in both defenses wut u gon do nao.

I don't find Skuntank annoying but I do find Geodude, Machop, Zubat, Magikarp and Tentacool very annoying.

And yes, Bronzor and Bronzong are a pain.

 

[tente2]

I hate rattata so much. And Pidgey. And Geodude. And Seel. And half of the gen 1 pokemon.

I hate Rattata and Pidgey because, apart from being useless and clogging up both R/B/Y/FR/LG AND G/S/C/HG/SS (that's just cruel...), they lack absolutely any design whatsoever. In other words, the defintion for the worst pokemon ever.

From Gen 3 onwards, the crap that clogged the grass was at least a little creative and (in the case of B/W) actually sort of fun to play with.

 

[Togetic997]

The one that always got me was Magikarp. Almost every fisherman has one, and it's so annoying. Sure it evolves into an unstoppable monster, but it's not like trainers in the game are smart enough to evolve them.

 

[DiabloMask]

Yeah, i was shocked that time! cause it was the only time my Nidoking was
knocked out since he's evolved from Nidorino!! even Red's Snorlaks couldn't do it!!

 

[Maple Leaf]

I remember hating Zubat and Geodude on my first ever playthrough of Pokemon. D:

I don't like Tentacool either!
