    As most know, Black and White only have 5th Pokemon in the game (up to beating the E4 at any rate). That means it is the first set of main handheld games to be without any 'staples' such as Zubat or Tentacool.

    So are there any Pokemon in B/W that seem to constantly pop up for you, or any Pokemon that have you frustrated at seeing them again due to any annoying moves/abilities they may have?

    This guy. He shows up a few times too many for my liking. It wouldn't be so bad - I like this pokemon otherwise - but you can't knock it out in one hit because of its ability. Too many of them and my team would slowly get worn down before I was through a cave. Thank goodness there are those doctors hanging around in the middle of nowhere.

    My sentiments exactly. Urggh its so annoying!!!
     
    Gantorou. It's annoying as hell with Sturdy's upgrade. I normally don't run from wild battles, but those guys...I don't feel like wasting more attacks on them than need be.

    Looks like the feelings mutual lol other than Gantle, i don't think there's many others i seem to find frustrating.

    I have to agree - this was the more annoying Pokemon I encountered when I played due to its ability. Even mor annoying when I now I would have knocked it out in one hit and instead it hangs in there and deals some damage (which slowly stacks up), while I waste my PP on grinding on this Pokemon. -_- Fairly common too to become annoying imo. Other Pokemon didn't annoy me too much, although the lack of variety in the first few routes was a bit annoying imo - only the gerbil, dog and cat until the first gym, really.

    Well that pokemon is the evolution of the new "Geodude" so it's not surprising that game freak would make a "clone" of a constantly popping pokemon pop up a lot >_>
     
    Yeah, but even finding Geodude/Graveler now they're the same as Gantorou. v_v They have the upgraded Sturdy as well. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love Gantorou's design. I even love the evolution line, and Rock is probably my least favorite type, but that ability. AH. I knew that upgrade would be good and bad.
     
    I've only played for 20 minutes and I already wish Patrat would disappear. ;__;
    (I'm pretty sure it'll be most annoying tbh for me)

    Yeah, especially with that annoying sturdy. That was the only thing that annoyed me. When, I was grinding at victory road, those guys showed up all the time. It wasn't too bad, since I trained near the doctor inside the victory road cave, but if only they could provide more EXP, I wouldn't care about them that much. But I love Boldores evolution line. D:

    Patrat wasn't too bad actually. I rarely saw them. Just Lillipup and Purrloin. Interesting...
     
    The stupid gerbil thing, Patrat. I hate it :| I'm at the third gym, and it seems to be everywhere.

    Also hate how Audino seems to be in every shaking patch. It's good to level up on, but I'm going to hate its guts when I want a Emolga or w/e later on.
     
    Hate Foongus because it has a ability that gives you status effect when you defeat it, Gantoru because it can't get killed by critical hit.

    Boldore and Ferroseed. Ugh. They kept spamming me in Chargestone Cave. I wanted to scream at them. :/ I also kept running into Patrat at the beginning but it didn't annoy me so much. Audino was cute the first couple times and awesome to use for exp. reasons... but, now that I'm trying to catch pokémon from shaking grass it won't go away. -.-
