One of the most annoying Gym Leaders to me was "The Steel-Clad Defense Girl". Otherwise known as Jasmine of Olivine City. No, not due to the fact you had to find her in the Sparkling Lighthouse and help the Ampharos, I like the side trips. ;D The main reason? The introduction of steel type in the second generation, and her beloved Steelix. Majority of trainers selected Cyndaquil, to get Typhlosion, so they had no problem wiping Jasmine off the face of the earth with fire. However, I'm one of those Chikorita Johto players, at the point of reaching Jasmine, I didn't even have Meganium yet, I still had Bayleef. XD Not only that, I didn't have the sufficient knowledge as to what was super effective against Steel types. All of my Pokémon were leveled around the upper twenties, early thirties. (Yeah, I used all the money I had those days to keep me going on potions, etc) So, why did I have such a rough time with her? An annoying reason in fact... Supersonic, so basically by the time I defeated the two Magnemites, most of my Pokémon were thunder waved and paralyzed and hurt plenty by confusion. So, how fun is it we're all crippled and meet a giant Steelix for the first time to get crushed to bits by Iron Tail and Rock Throw. 8D It was lovely! This was the scenario when I attempted to defeat Jasmine countless times, I eventually trained everyone into mid thirties and luck was still on her side with confusion knocking me out of commission many times for Steelix to wipe me out. After losing to Jasmine numerous times, I simply trained like a mad man (Which payed off for later Gym Leaders as well) and finally defeated her. It was toughest, and the most annoying Gym Leader I had ever faced since Misty of Kanto. Jasmine remains to this day the hardest and most annoying Gym Leader I ever faced.

→ Gen: II
→ Person: Jasmine
→ Pokémon: Steelix & Magenemite duo (They all played a role)
→ Reason: bad luck with confusion and par, to be wiped out by Steelix
