What Pokemon do you fear at the Battle Frontier?

    I was wondering what Pokemon do you people fear the face at the Battle Frontier/Tower/Wifi Battle. For me in my Ruby it was Starmie because it took down my Crobat with Ice Beam, Thunderbolt or Psychic, my Gorebyss with Thunderbolt and my Porygon2 with Surf. It would also use Recover, Double Team or Confuse Ray to annoy me. In my Pearl it was most Ice types as my whole team was weak against them. In my HeartGold it's Scizor. I destroys my Sceptile, My Bronzong can't do anything to it and my Metagross can't do much either and any damage it takes it uses Roost. Post what is your ultimate counter and why.
     
    When it comes to the Battle Frontier in Pokemon Emerald, I fear Milotic and Blissey. X_X Their special defense and HP are truly a headache for anybody. >(
     
    ^ I also fear that Blissey! Seriously, that Blissey is my worst nightmare when I do the Battle Frontier. It takes forever.
     
    ...So that Starmie had 7 moves? Wow, I'd be afraid of hax0r Starmie too. :( Nothing in the Battle Frontier scares me though!

    No the Starmie would have a moveset composed of any 4 of the 7.
     
    Any Pokemon with OHKO moves. Seriously, I was once destroyed by a Rhydon with Horn Drill and a Quick Claw. There was also this one time where a Gliscor in the Battle Factory landed two Guillotine's on my team. I wish I could enroll in the Battle Frontier training program. :(
     
    scared of ohko moves just like kirbychu
     
    OHKO moves, definitely, and ultimately Dark-type Pokemon/moves. My team has a huge hole where a Dark type could crawl though; it's made of Ghosts and Psychics.
     
    I'm really afraid of Jolteon in wi-fi battles... In Diamond, there was a guy who KO'd all my pokemon with ThunderBolt. It was shiny too.

    I'm not scared of Blissey at all becuase my Porygon-Z easily takes care of them without breaking a sweat (Silk Scarf + Adaptability + STAB + Nasty Plot + Crazy high Sp.Atk + Hyper Beam = KO)

    Oh yeah, for this reason, i'm also scared of Porygon-Z. I've been seeing alot of them using this strategy on PBR, lately. OHKO moves are pretty scary too. But that's why Pokemon with the Sturdy ability were created.
     
    One other Pokemon that annoys me is Cradily in HG. It will always have the moveset Ingrain, Stockpile, Double Team and Toxic and holds Leftovers. Only my Metagross can beat it by a Critical hit Meteor Mash or by wearing it down by making it use Struggle. I was also wondering has anyone else seen this exact Cradily?
     
    I fear Pokemon with the move Ice Shard as it takes out my Jumpluff and Garchomp.
     
    Blissey, OHKO move Pokemon, and CurseLax. CurseLax cost me its fair share of wins :/
     
    On Platinum - Bronzong is a formidable opponment indeed. Also very careful if I spot a Vaporeon-all my experiences with this one were bad.
    On Emerald, I wasn't exactly fearing anything, not even ohko moves, but then this Blissey appeared and...T^T
     
    Milotic or Dusclops.... especially Dusclops. The horror of confusion.....
     
    Now dont tell me that you guys frogot about Wobbuffet! It is a nightmare trying to win against it, espically in Emerald's battle frontier. Oh yeah, Blissey and Milotic are evil too.
     
    I fear Blissey if I lack a physical attacker, but here are some other sets I fear (and love to use when I get the chance to use them at the Battle Factory):

    -Anything that relies on Double Team and Toxic to take down opponents
    -This Starmie set:
    Hydro Pump
    Blizzard
    Thunder
    Recover
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Wide Lens
    -These Dewgong and Walrein sets:
    Rest
    Sleep Talk
    Sheer Cold
    Horn Drill (Dewgong)/Fissure (Walrein)
    Nature: Careful (Dewgong)/Bold (Walrein)
