One of mine has got to be that one of my favourite Pokemon (Houndoom) is only available on Pearl and I have Diamond.

Totally annoying

The most annoying part is that you have to kee alternating betwen the touch screen and the buttons. The designers could have come up with a better way to utilize both without making people switch so much.

I's comparable to online games that make you switch from the mouse t the keybard. It can drive some people nuts. XD

The fact that Tropius is the only unobtainable non Starter/Legendary. It just bugs me.

I hate how the credits come up and you have to restart at Twinleaf town everytime you battle the Elite's. And the amount of chat they do when being added to the hall of fame after beating them. Just wish it wouldn't take so long lol.

Traveling through caves is annoying in all games but is especially annoying in DP.

I personally would just ditch the touch screen myself, besides making it an option on the battle screens maybe, since all that it was used for to my knowledge was really small stuff like cleaning your badges or making Poffins

Touch screen annoys me too. I thought it would have a lot more uses than it does. Get sick of switching between the two. But i suppose it's useful in the underground and for poffins.

The inability to place things on mats or tables in the Underground, the fact that Secret Bases are located only Underground, and the fact that if I give a 90 Sphere for a Thirty doll, I get no change.

Basically, I hate every aspect of the Underground except for the part where I get good items.

Sometimes my Touch screen is a little off because I will touch one move mut the screen will act like I touched another and it causes mistakes on wifi.

Why so much hate on the touch screen? It makes things too cumbersome? Not at all, if any, it makes your actions more fluently, seeing as to how it takes quite a few presses on the d-pad just to find a berry (during a battle), when you can achieve the same goal in a minimum of 3 touches. If you haven't noticed, your DS has an option to calibrate the touch screen so mistakes like yours won't happen. The only way that anyone could mistake attacks would be if they had Big Foot fingers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hate scrolling through my endless list of items, it takes too long, even when using the 'move item' option.

Why couldn't they impliment the "change all your Pokemons lvls to 100" option into wireless matches (not the same as Wi-Fi, mind you), also?

Agreed. Scrolling down the item list. Nothing could be more bad than that. It takes forever. NO ITEM PC >___>. Also I hate the fact your Poketec thing doesn't have a back button.

Accuracy. Hands down. I know that its part of the game but sometimes like when you're missing like 5 consecutive thunders, you feel the need to hurl the damn thing out the window.

The fact that they talk to much when you beat the E4, and they never remember that you have already beaten Cynthia and say the same mess every time.

Eh, you can scroll in the Backpack using the Pokeball on the touch screen. You rotate it either way to make the list go up or down. It's a tad bit faster, but can slow you down if you do it too fast.

Empty your backpack, then.

I don't think you can get Tangela anywhere either.

The lack of information available on GTS is irritating. You should be able to read all about the Pokemon you want.

The fact that people can hack Pokemon gets to me, completely ruins the game IMO.

Every time you fight the Elite 4, they say exactly the same things to you. Could the leaders not change every now and then? or perhaps the Pokemon in the battle tower give you experience points? It seems strange that you can have level 100 yet every one else seems to stop at 60 or so.

Totally agree.

I laugh everytime when Cynthia said "I can't remember the last time I was put in a corner like this!"

C'mon I have beaten you 30 times.

Well I guess you forgot TM & HM bagpack...
It really wastes my time when I have to scroll to HM08...

Cmon dahlin, at least Tangela is cute...

The most thing that annoys me is the evolution of old Pokemon... Why does Magmortar, Electivire, Togekiss, Tangrowth, Rhyperior, Dusknoir, Probopass, Lickilicky have to become a very very fat horrible thingys...?
