The hardest, to me so far, has to be Whitney. But that's how far I have gotten, so I can't really say just yet, but out of the 3, Whitney was the toughest.
 
haven't done clair yet but the only two i really had problems beating were chuck and Jasmine, Withney i got on first try. But seeing all your messages i'm not looking forward to finishing goldenrod radio tower and go beat clair :p
 
Whitney
Miltank cost me almost all my pokemon!
Good thing I revived Flaffy or I would have lost
 
Clair, I only won because of I was lucky (her pokemon missed and I had a critical hit)
Brock for kanto cause all the other leaders were defeated with the use of 1 pokemon and no potions whatsoever but Brock was really annoying...
 
Clair; I had set my full team of 6 up too early on and I was underleveled by then. I ended up using around 20 Hyper Potions on Ampharos until her Kingdra ran out of PP for everything but Hyper Beam so I could get attacks in on the recharge turns. I won xD
 
I don't have the game yet, but I'll bet the hardest for me will have to be Claire and Whitney. I'm not sure if I've ever beaten them on my first try on any of my Silver files. D:
 
In Gold, the hardest for me were Bugsy and Whitney (I started with Chikorita). lol With Bugsy it got so bad that I evolved my Bayleef into Meganium and I finally beat his Scyther. -_-

In Heart Gold it was the same two that I spent 3+ tries on. Bugsy more so. That Scyther... it's evil. So is Whitney's Miltank. I was so lucky she didn't use Rollout much on me.
 
couldn't you have just got a geodude? lol... that's the first thing i do, train up a geodude so it learns a rock move. ;)
No. They have that mean ground attack that is super effective against it. Just get a Pidgey and train it to level 10-12. Should do okay.
Whitney was ANNOYING. Too good I had Bite with my Croconaw, bite + stun = ftw.
If i had sudowoodo before whitney.. She wouldn't stop crying even after a year.
 
Whitney is the biggest threat, why? Because everyone got swept by rollout at least once in all their pokemon gaming years.
 
Whitney? Pshaw. I anihalated her with my Heracross. Didn't take that long.

Morty, on the other hand, was hard for me. Imagine this. Dead Bayleef. Dead Slowpoke. Dead Pidgeotto. I got stuck with Herracross and Ampharos, and I was able to survive with them, just barely though.

Bugsy was too easy with a level 20 Pidgeotto.

Falkner, was incredibly easy. It didn't hurt to have my level 16 Flaaffy then. Bayleef and Pidgey were both level 16 too but they were useless in the battle, the Flaaffy was enough.

The only gym leader i found hard was whitney but i was a bit under leveled when i got to her

i think it took me a good 4 tries to beat her

Come on, they leveled it down for you guys. It's rollout does about 2-3 damage the first hit, 5-6 the second hit, and so on in a similar fashion. It's never had a chance to use Milk Drink in my entire experience of playing GSC.

The only time I've ever personally seen anybody having trouble with her miltank is when the dump-for-brains used a Quilava against it. There's a Sandshrew you can get for 14,000 and a Dig TM in the national park. You should be fine, kiddies.
 
I think that Clair and Whitney are hardest, because they were the hardest at their stage in the game.
