Easiest Gym Leader
 
Opposite of that pool. Which is your easiest one??
Mine is Lenora!

Well, comment here if you would.

I've never had any trouble with Clay so I say him if anybody.

ltsang May 24th, 2011 10:48 AM

my was the first one Straiton city gym leader. Was so easy like walking in park.

Amore May 24th, 2011 10:54 AM

Strange...the first time through, I got obliterated by Cilan's Lillipup, struggled with Lenora in general (Watchog was too much once I had taken down Herdier), but then found the others fairly easy - Druddigon even defeated Haxorus.

However, this second time through, perhaps due to my obsessively keeping my pokémon at respectable levels, rather than being overpowered, I struggled against Burgh (well, I say "struggled", I mean I can actually remember what pokémon he had, and Whirlipede hurt Pidove a little), kept getting obliterated by Elesa, struggled against Clay (although his Krokorok only ever KO'd my Sandile once), had to revive Emboar because nothing could take a hit from Brycen's Beartic, and actually used a whole team of 5 instead of just 3 pokémon against Drayden. Although I did obliterate Cress and Lenora, and closely defeat Skyla first time.

I would say there isn't really a hardest one, although Drayden's dragons are pretty tough, particularly if they get to use Dragon Dance. It all depends on your team, really - my first team was full of exceptional members (Rather like Man Utd. in the late 90s), such as Sawk and Victini. Whereas my current team is more of a unit, all benefitting eachother to usually leave a battle with only one of them surviving (more like current Man Utd.)

I would say Lenora but she completely KO's me when I go with Snivy but I have never had any trouble with Clay, so I would go with him.

Skyla, Brycen, and Iris. After the fourth gym the rest became easier, but I defeated all of Skyla's, Brycen's, and Iris's Pokemon in one hit each. Then again, I was overleveled.

shamshel May 24th, 2011 3:05 PM

I found the easier gym hardest to be honest but overall I found clay the easiest after the fourth gym it seemed to be getting a lot easier

ISA56 2.0 May 24th, 2011 3:23 PM

Iris, the last Gym Leader, is by far the easiest in my opinion. Really, a Dragon trainer shouldn't be this pathetic. I went up against her with no type advantage and defeated her whole team with one Pokemon and not suffering so much as a single scratch.

Notworking15 May 24th, 2011 4:47 PM

easiest for me was Burgh and for some reason, Skyla and Brycen as well

Giga Flare May 24th, 2011 5:08 PM

Honestly, the first gym leader(s) were the easiest. I absolutely wiped the floor with them. Then Skyla. The others posed some challenge though.

Weavile05 May 24th, 2011 5:10 PM

The Dragon Type gym leader. Yeah I said it. The last gym leader is the easiest. This is because teh ise creem ruelz!

Touko May 24th, 2011 5:15 PM

Definitely Skyla. I had a electric type,so it was easy ^_^

Alternative May 24th, 2011 5:31 PM

That really depends on what Pokemon you have, and how you go about defeating them. With my Pokemon, and obtaining a Lucky Egg from Professor Juniper, which makes me really overleveled, I'd have to say Skyla or Brycen are the easiest. If you have the Pokemon, they they're just super easy to beat.

solarowl May 24th, 2011 5:35 PM

Lenora. You have no idea how easy it is to beat her with a Gigalith.
Two Iron Defenses, and a Rock Blast or Smack Down will do the trick.

Geras May 24th, 2011 5:39 PM

Chili, or whatever. I had only my Snivy yet I absolutely murdered him.

esperance May 24th, 2011 5:55 PM

I'd say that of all the gym leaders, Clay was the easiest. With my Palpitoad and Simisage, I Bulldozed him. :)

Ho-Oh May 24th, 2011 6:09 PM

I dunno really, I'd like to say Brycen because I really can't remember fighting him at all, but like others have mentioned, probaby Skyla, with Clay coming in second. Mainly cause Emboar knew Scald by then <3 And as for Skyla, idk, something must've been super effective against her.

Steve Z May 24th, 2011 6:15 PM

To me, every gym was easy with the exception of the first and the second. Skyla would take the cake though. Flying gym surrounded by Electric types on both sides, it makes for an easy fight.

Wyatt Fire May 25th, 2011 10:10 AM

Being a fire trainer, naturally Burgh and Brycen. Skyla was simple too.

The Nightmare May 25th, 2011 2:29 PM

The easiest was the electric gym I beated her with whirlipede.

jmd34 May 25th, 2011 3:17 PM

First Gym Is easy enough , Take out the first pokémon (Lillipup) With your starter , and take out your opposite (Let's say Fire Since I chose snivy) with the Monkey ^^'

Tyranee May 25th, 2011 3:33 PM

Easiest was Brycen. Never once had trouble with him because I've always had someone with an attack capable of taking out his whole party. Lenora and Elysa were the hardest and most annoying every time I've played through.

2Cool4Mewtwo May 25th, 2011 5:45 PM

All of the gym leaders were unbelievably easy after Lenora... but to say the easiest, I have to say skyla, most of my pokemon were at least 15 levels overlevelled to her lowest pokemon I think >.>

Venzeron May 25th, 2011 6:06 PM

I really wanted to say Clay, having panpour and snivy(I don't really let my starter evolve until its learned all its moves) but rock slide took them both. i should went to the poke center instead of challenging the gym without healing, but I still came out on top with chikorita, cyndaquil, zoura and mew. Iris was very easy for my. I barely remember are battle.

Vrai May 25th, 2011 6:32 PM

Once I hit Elesa, all the gym leaders were easy-peesy. I think that the Striaton leader was easy, too... wait, doesn't that mean the only hard one was Lenora?

Yep. Sounds right. Stupid Hypnosis.
