I remember when we once had a thread like this, so I decided to remake it.

What is this thread all about? Well, we all know that every region has at least one annoying location and Unova is no exception.

Here, you can tell us what the most annoying location was to you when you were playing Black or White!

Oh I kinda liked all the Places here but the most annoying have got to be the Desert resort (Relic Castle) for being so big, Quick Sand and encounters every second step.

another place was the electric cave (Haven't played in a while so forgot the name lmaooooooo)

That would be Chargestone Cave. :) Yes, I also found it disliking.

Chargestone Cave was a bit annoying when it came to Ferroseed hunting; I kept running into Joltik and Klink. The same applies to Desert Resort for Sigilyph hunting.

Twist Mountain is also one of my least favorite locations because of the twisting maze inside.

Your experience was different than mine. Ferroseed was the second Pokémon I encountered, maybe the first. When reviewing, I realized I never picked up a Joltik and was happy that it was the most common one that I had forgotten.

Twist Mountain is also one of my least favorite locations because of the twisting maze inside.
I forgot this, but yes. Easily the most annoying area to get through. And both of these areas did require use of special tools known as "Max Repels"; the encounter ratio in these areas was higher than I would have liked.

I HATE CHARGESTONE CAVE!!!!! Did you ever try to find a Tynamo in the cave? I'm not even joking when I say this: Two and a half hours to find ONE Tynamo. Ugh...

I love Chargestone Cave. I could camp in there for a weekend. :<

Well, I hate getting to Relic Castle. I love hatching Pokemon eggs in there but it's such a hassle to walk some thousand steps, slowbro walk to the area, bike around some more in like a 2x4 space in Relic Castle with repel on. >.< I've caught my Volcarona but it's quite the strange cave, haha.

Really? You should have headed straight to floor B2. The chance of encountering one QUADRUPLES down there. I got one before I turned on Repels (which is how I forgot Joltik).

For me, Twist Mountain and Route 7.

Twist Mountain cos of the confusing maze in the cave parts and given it was summer when I was in the main story (finished the main story in 13 days) it was slightly more hard.

The reason I didn't like Route 7 was because routes with really tall grass always bother me and Route 7 is no exception. I hate the wild Zebstrika there as well cos they are fast and hard to escape from, not to mention that when it's raining Fire-types get weakened and there's hail during winter as well. Route 7 will forever be my most-hated of the really tall grass routes because of that. I am a Trainer who loves riding their bike, which makes it just as bad.

Yeah, I just finished the Abyssal Ruins. I hadn't done that when I first answered, but I never understood how a torrent of water can sweep one off of the third floor of an ancient ruin. I think the idea was to remove players who got lost, but 500 steps?

Took me several trips, but my wallet likes the reward of the labour. Very nice since I bought out most of the pricier TMs with my first load of hard-earned riches.

As mentioned above, I dislike twist mountain, chargestone cave and route 7.

I also hate routes 18 and 17. It was such a hassle to go back there, and then the trainers were hard and numerous (if you went back right when you got surf) and overall it just felt...tiring.

So far I really hate Chargestone Cave the most with Route 4 (sooo much sand) trailing in at a close second. I hated Chargestone due to the almost literal *1 step, 1 battle* experience I had there. It was ok at first as it gave me a chance to catch the local wildlife rather quickly but I really dislike fighting electric Pokemon and once I had caught my quota, I would have rather they left me alone! I had to break down and buy a bunch of Max Repels to make it through and I'm quite the cheapskate in game. I can't say for sure if this is my most hated area since I am only just now at Celestial Tower. I guess I will chime back in if I end up changing my mind later...

Yeah any cave was kinda annoying for me. :( Especially Victory Road, it was craaaazy because there was so many strong Pokemon and they appeared so often. As for actual routes hmmm anything post-game kinda sucked at first because everything was so strong. ;;

One thing about Twist Mountain that annoyed me in particular is the couple of wild Pokémon I would always unnecessarily run into when I get the daily fossil and am too cheap for a repel.

Just take a powerhouse Pokémon in as lead and run away from the Boldores if you don't want to deal with their Sturdy ability. I decided to just take the free experience - all 50 or so of it.

I dislike Road 7. In my new party, I am not in hurry to arrive there.




So, it is outside (not sure about "outside") the thread

But I've just arrived in the other place which annoys me (the city of the amusement park). Sorry, but I play to the french version and I don't know the English name of this town.

I find that it has nothing of a city. We would just say a place where were placed all the buildings which they could as they could. I am not a fan. (I think it's the town with the fourth gym).
I'm not English. Don't hesitate to correct me. This is the way I can progress.

I haven't progressed through the game that much. I'm up to Driftveil and so far the most annoying place was Desert Resort ._.. Never ever go in there without plenty of Repels - the encounter rates are insane. Also it is so easy to get lost in and you lose track of which trainers you have fought.
pineapples are cool.
