Hm, Shift doesn't have Emerald, and Shift hasn't played his Ruby in ages. But Shift does recall going up against Watson with his Treecko. Shift didn't have the advantage against Steel and lost. Shift ended up doing a new game with his starter being Mudkip.

Or Shift could have just picked up an Aron, and trained it up to have Mudslap. Whatever works for Shift. Now let's shift away from referring to oneself in third person. TheRedDeerHunter: Normal leaders have always been difficult for me too... Norman was one of the hardest gym leaders in R/S/E, because of his damn Slaking, who is an utter BEAST. That thing can take a beating even from physical attackers, despite moving only every two turns. I was always curious why it never became more popular. |
hrmmmm...... Brawly was such a pain.. i hated his bloody makuhita and especially when it used bulk up.
tate and liza isn't rlly hard except for Xatu if u chose mudkip as a starter. |
Winona was a piece of cake until I met her Altaria. I was wondering why thunderbolt wasn't silencing it (I didn't know it was dragon.)
It took out my Pikachu and Gardevoir before I realized it was dragon. Then I sent out Swampert and he beat it with Ice Beam. Tate and Liza are a pain as well. Both of their Pokémon have extremely high HP and great move sets. Roxanne is also annoying. Her Geodude's are simple, but her darn high-HP Nosepass bugs me... Norman is usually a problem because of his Slaking's HP and strength, as well as Flannery. Her Torkoal annoys the poop out of me. Glacia is bad as well. By the time I get to her, my Fire and Electric Types are pretty much dead so she hoses them down pretty easily. And the final Wally bugs me a LOT. His Gardevoir used Double Team all 20x and I couldn't hit it! |
My hardest experience with a gym leader had to be in Emerald, when I fought Winona with all her super-powered, high 50s pokemon, all against my Lv9X Breloom (all I had at the time). I was just lucky I had way too many Full Restores at the time.
|
gosh... i hated the elite fours i always faint battling them.
|
Gotta be Roxanne in my opinion... Its just because her pkmn were at such a high level at the begging of the game, that you kind of had to be up there with her to compete.
|
Tate and Liza. Though, using Imprison on her with a Gardevoir is always fun. I made her Xatu use struggle from that.
Norman is kind of a pain because you get basically no training after Flannery. Juan's Kindra is annoying though too. Double team/Rest/Hyper potions makes me mad. |
I think I would say wallace is really hard since he likes ice pokemon :D

I always thought Tate and Liza were the most frustrating =\ And Norman was really annoying to beat -___-
|
Tate and Liza took me ages to beat. I hated having to do it as a double battle.
|
I wud say Brawly was pretty hard for me, as i was training Torchic (at that time, lvl 12), Poochyena (lvl 11) and Lotad (lvl 11)...
Couldnt do it, so first delivered letter, then, leveled until evolve, then Kicked his sorry b*tt |
Norman, I got is all of is pokemon down to red health and every time he would heal them, it was really annoying

For me, it has to be Watson. I Sapphire, i had an Aron at around level 20, and i thought i could pawn him (Electric being ineffective against Ground. It took me close to 20 trys to beat him. After that, i zoomed through the game. Even the bloosy Elite 4 weren't as hard as him, comparictivly speaking.
|
the hardest trainer in the whole game would have to be Emerald's Wallace
|
I hated Juan (guy who replaced walace)
my team was Fire/earth based Blaziken Rhydon Graveler |
I hated him too! I had to fight him using my sceptile O.o
|
I have to say that Norman or Wattson. Norman is just difficult with his Slaking and Wattson was just hell to take down when I replayed the game and chose Treeko. Uneven training while fighting Wattson didn't help either. ><
|
Most annoying?
Sapphire: Wallace Emerald: Tate&Liza( man they've grown Waaay stronger since Sapphire) That's it |
Hmmm... lemme think...
Ruby: Brawly (Only cuz I had full offense, and no Special offense eheh) Sapphire: Tate and Liza because they, well they just pwned me! Emerald: Hmmmm... none. Haha I only use three Pokémon when I go through each game (with the exception of two HM slaves), which were Swampert, Alakazam, and Golbat (Golbat is surprisingly strong after it evolves from Zubat), and they all held tough against each Gym. That's all. |
In Emerald:
I had a hard time defeating Juan. I couldn't manage to beat him, because of Kingdra. Therefore, I played "cheap" and captured Rayquaza with a few Ultra Balls in Sky Pillar (It opens once you do the miniquest of going to it and breaking the fighting with Groudon and Kyogre.) I beat him easily afterward. |
hmmmm....I think I had trouble fighting with Brawly...Since my Marshtomp wasn't that strong yet...>.< but the rest were easy to defeat...^_^
