    Has this ever happened to you?

    Monferno used Flame Wheel!

    Critical hit!

    Me: YESSSSS!!!! Only one more hit till that Skuntank dies!!!

    Jupiter used a Super Potion!

    Me....FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

    Does it bother you when Gym Leaders or other people use potions? Like this other time:

    Me: Cynthia's Garchomp is going down! One more Ice Fang Gyara, come on...

    Cynthia used a Full Restore! Garchomp is no longer Paralyzed!

    Me....FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

    See what I mean? Put in your story, okay?

    It's completely normal, happens all the time, wouldn't you do the same if you were them? XD

    They do it all the friggen time at the E4 for example... I think it's annoying as hell, but I've learned to use a strong attack even if their health is low, just in case...

    It annoys me when I'm at the Elite 4 =[
    I mean, I don't care about the gym leaders, I always have Pokémon that are more higher levelled than theirs.
    It's just the Elite 4 have higher level Pokémon in the end and have a variety of Pokémon, and I always end up not having the right Pokémon therefore they always use full restore.
    MAYBE I SHOULD GET SOME FULL RESTORE! YEAH THAT SHOULD SHOW THEM
    I swear the Elite 4 have more than 1 or 2 >.>

    I started Sapphire recently and it surprised me when the gym leaders used more than one potion for each Pokemon. I would whittle down Machop's health slowly, to be met with "Brawly used a Super Potion". I got its health down again, only to see another super potion!

    I've learned to anticipate when they're going to use a Full Restore and I either use one of my own, or I use a different attack, like Pain Split =)

    I had heaps of trouble with Cynthia in Platinum for this very reason. So glad there's no potions in the Battle Frontier.

    Yeah, it's usually kinda easy to predict, too... It's a pain when fighting the early Gym Leaders, you have no awesome attacks yet, and it takes several turns to take them down... then you only have to tire them out and make them use up 'em all! :D

    It is an annoyance, but for the record, Embargo exists for the sole reason of eliminating this annoyance. Throw it on something and watch your opponent cry as they're unable to heal.

    Sure, but... I don't really care about those kinds of moves (and that makes me a noob when it comes to pro battling)... Maybe I'll send in some Sinnoh Legend or something with Heal Block next time...

    It is very annoying! But one time, I though, f*** it, I'm gonna use a full restore on you, noob! Now you know what it's like! xD

    Yeah, but they are so predictable when it comes to them using their full restore.
    I'll often know when they are going to use it and use that time to heal one of my own Pokemon.

    As much as I hate it, it wouldn't be fun without it then you would just like sweep every gym, adds more of a challenge.
