Same with me, the Fighting Gym. The amount of times that darn' Lucario kicked me in the face, it was traumatic. </3

For me it was Gardenia. Prinplup does not make a good match for a Roserade and I don't like the Starly line

I had trouble with Crasher Wake's water Gym.
..His Floatzel outspeeds all of my Pokemon and always uses Aqua Jet/Ice fang.
Bleh.

On Pearl the fighting gym was a pain for me but I kind of had trouble with the ghost gym for some reason not only because of the Gengar and Mismagius outspeeding everything Drifblim was actually tanking with all of its HP.

Apparently the Ice gym was killing me, to be honest.
Torterra was overall useless, Lucario was still in mid-training, Staraptor was twice as useless as Torterra and Luxray helped but died quickly. By the time Steelix joined my team, the gym was easy. I just forgot about my type-matchups.

Fighting gym as well. My Monferno had a hard time against that Lucario, even though he had the type advantage. It's because of Lucario's Bone Rush. In diamond was the same with my Grotle, except the Bone Rush part.

I hated Volkner (the electric gym) the first time I challenged him, as I had Empoleon. He absolutely creamed me. I was even overleveled at that point and he still beat me twice. That was also the first time I played through the game; I feel like I've learned a lot more since then, haha.

For some reason, I thought the fighting gym was pretty easy with empoleon. For me, Volkner was hard, because 1/3 of my team was weak to his electric attacks and I hated that ELECTIVIRE.

The ice gym was the hardest for me because i only had 2 pokemon on my team at the time that was up to level and it was my torterra and gabite and both are bad against ice moves.

Wake's gym was the toughest for my team since I didn't have a good type match up.

I dunno how so many people had trouble with Maylene o.o
She's not that difficult.

I'll say Byron, Steel. Steel vs Steel takes really long D:

When I first started playing Platinum I had a hard time with Fantina. Her Duskull kept on using Will-o-wisp and man was that annoying as heck. I didn't have any dark Pokemon at that time since my Eevee took forever to evolve. Now that I have started over on Platinum, the most challenging gym that I had would have to be Crasher wake. I had a Rotom and Torterra but my Torterra hated that Ice fang while Rotom hated Bite.
