Most annoying pokemon you've ever overcomed in 3rd Generation games?
 
What is the hardest pokemon you've ever faced in any of the 3rd Generation games (Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/Fire Red/Leaf Green)?

Mine would be Wallaces Milotic in the Elite four, defeating it was a major PAIN. Everytime I used thunder leaving him down to 1/5 hp left, he friggen kept using full restores which annoyed the heck outta me. I didn't risk using any status effects coz of Marvel Scale.
Pike Queens Lucys Shuckle also pissed me off too (I didnt use the taunt method and instead went gun-ho on it, pretty stupid thing to do ;p).

Some trainer's Swampert in the Battle Tower in Sapphire. Seriously, it swept my team immediately.

Skaterzpenguin November 7th, 2008 5:22 PM

Idk, but I didn't like the pokemon in the battle pyramid. I thought it was hard and annoying... lol

During my first few playthroughs of R/S/E, I could not defeat Norman's Slakings. Counter killed me every time and I didn't want to learn to not use a physical attack, heheh...

During my Sapphire rock monotype challenge, Steven's Claydol just would not die, damn his full restores and light screen. I had HP Grass and Ice Beam on Lunatone to try and beat him (wish I had gotten HP electric :P)

During my first fun in emerald, I had a hard time defeating Wallace's Milotic.
Its high Sp.Def and Hp made the fight hard even up against a grass-type.
Becuase of that, I relied on using Rayquaza to overcome it. Sad that it knew Ice Beam, otherwise it would have been a cakewalk.

Circuit November 8th, 2008 1:27 AM

Cakewalk? I think it's Catewalk. Anyway my most annoying would be Wallace's Milotic (in all three games). It was just so annoying with full restores and Recover. Luckly I had a Manetric in Emerald and took it out with one Thunder.

Norman and his damned Slaking... Oh I hate that damn thing, it's ugly and pointlessly powerful for a 4th Gym Leader.

End Rant.

ErickaVolt November 8th, 2008 3:00 AM

As what everyone says, the most annoying is Slaking. It uses Facade when it has status. He also automatically slacks off. >.<

Lynnx November 8th, 2008 3:40 AM

Well, I don't have R/S/E, just LeafGreen, so I'd have to say that the most annoying Pokemon would have to be the rival's Tyranitar when you battle him the second time. The only Pokemon I had on my team that could eventually take it out was my Aerodactyl, who I had to Hyper Potion like crazy and who could barely get in an Earthquake.

I was going to say something about nightmares from GSC but seeing as this says 3rd generation, it's Juan's Kingdra. Stupid DT...x.x I couldn't hit it, and when I did, it would heal! -.-

The warden November 10th, 2008 11:41 AM

I know they are real easy to beat but zubat they are so common and so hard to get away from when you are near the start of the game.

Saltare. November 10th, 2008 11:46 AM

I guess it would've been Rayquaza. I think. IDK

Stormer07 November 10th, 2008 11:57 AM

Mine was back in emerald, the electric gym leader- took me ages to beat him! And Cynthia wasn't easy either.

Cactus Twist November 10th, 2008 7:39 PM

Tate and Liza with their Lunatone and Solrock. For some reason those stupid things just crush my existance.

GKS November 10th, 2008 8:00 PM

Makuhita at the second gym in emerald. I know it's the second gym but it was hard for that early on in the game. Every other gym was too easy.

Ninja Caterpie November 11th, 2008 1:45 AM

Oh shnaps! I forgot Wattson's Magneton! -.- You try beating it with a Grovyle and Kirlia! I had to nail a couple of Calm Minds on a Gardevoir's Psychic to kill it in three shots! -.- And I lost a large portion of money training againts the rest of his Pogeymans.

I didnt have too much trouble beating Wattsons Magneton even when I started off with a treeko, I nailed him down with my Gravelers Magnetude =P

Swift! November 11th, 2008 2:47 AM

It was a Level 50 Smeargle in FireRed...

It knocked out my Level 88 Charizard (who was already weak after a s***load of battles), before taking out another two HM Slaves (a Dugtrio and Fearow) and then my Gyarados finally took it out.
That was the first and only time my Charizard fainted... and I was SOOOO close to finishing the game without a single knock out. Oh well... *shrugs*

Juyushi November 11th, 2008 5:28 AM

I have to say Trapinch yeah they appear at like level 20 but, when your searching for a Cactina and you keep running into the ones with arena trap, it can get real annoying.

Noisuf Ekop 993 November 11th, 2008 9:01 AM

I hate Norman's Slaking. It is an ass. All imma gonna say......

Tyranitar042 November 11th, 2008 1:30 PM

Im srry but all the pokemon everyone has said is extremely easy to beat but only if you know what pokemon to use and at which levels you need yours at....I'll be honest every gym leader but wallace gave me a s#[email protected] load of trouble to beat b/c i didnt know what to use like altaria i didnt know it was a dragon/flying b/c swablu in a normal/flying and it had earthquake. all and all I would have to say SLAKING!!! son of a whore lol

Lalapizzame November 11th, 2008 4:18 PM

That stupid Dusclops of the one Ghost Elite 4 member, it kept stalling me. >:|

GuardianofAuraGirl November 11th, 2008 4:19 PM

That'll be Tentacool and Zubat.

Zowayix November 11th, 2008 4:29 PM

This happened on my friend's game:

Vs. Palace Maven Spenser

Spenser sent out Crobat!
Go! Machamp!
Crobat used Toxic! Crobat's attack missed!
Machamp used Rock Slide! It's super effective!
Crobat fainted! Spenser sent out Slaking!
Machamp used Cross Chop!
A critical hit! It's super effective! Slaking fainted!

...and then...

Spenser sent out Lapras!
Lapras used Horn Drill! It's a one-hit KO! Machamp fainted!
Go! Metagross!
Lapras used Horn Drill! It's a one-hit KO! Metagross fainted!
Go! Swampert!
Lapras used Horn Drill! It's a one-hit KO! Swampert fainted!

Player lost against Spenser!
