The ice gym was the hardest for me because i only had 2 pokemon on my team at the time that was up to level and it was my torterra and gabite and both are bad against ice moves.
 
I dunno how so many people had trouble with Maylene o.o
She's not that difficult.

I'll say Byron, Steel. Steel vs Steel takes really long D:
 
When I first started playing Platinum I had a hard time with Fantina. Her Duskull kept on using Will-o-wisp and man was that annoying as heck. I didn't have any dark Pokemon at that time since my Eevee took forever to evolve. Now that I have started over on Platinum, the most challenging gym that I had would have to be Crasher wake. I had a Rotom and Torterra but my Torterra hated that Ice fang while Rotom hated Bite.
 
I´d Say that I had problems both with ice and fighting gyms, dragon and dark types dont have a good type matchup against these...
 
Wow, I thought I was the only one who thought that Maylene was tough. No matter who you have on your team, she has a pokemon with a move to counter you. Ughh.
 
Ohh on my Diamond the first gym took me FOREVER to beat because two of my four guys were traded and wouldn't obey me xP
 
The only one I really had trouble with is Maylene.
Her Pokemon were just too much for mine.
 
All the gyms where easy for me, except The ice gym. I had taken Turtwig as my starter, and since I had trained a starly as my secondary pokemon and the rest of my team was mainly HM slaves I was really at a loss. Eventualy I just traded in the GTS for a chimchar and trained him up and whiped her.
 
In Diamond it was Fantina.... God her Mismagius was a horror...
 
Yeah, fighting is the hardest for me so far.
My Alakazam is too strong so it won't obey me :(

Training up my dustox, beautifly and staravia to cream them :D
 
None of the Gym Leaders defeated me in Platinum but I do remember beating Fantina with only 1 pokemon left because of her Mismagius so I guess that was the most difficult.
 
Managed to defeat the Rock Gym after training staravia up a few levels so it only took me two attempts overall.
 
Gardenia's Roserade kept owning me, after her Cherubi kept using Sunlight. Turtwig also pwned me XD She was the hardest for me, the rest of the gyms were rather easy.
 
For me, the hardest to beat was Volkner, the electric one. All I had with an advantage was a Gallade that knew Earthquake so no STAB+supereffective like I would normally use.
 
Candice, depending on your luck with her Froslass and your attacks missing because of Snow Cloak.

Fortunately, in Platinum, my team had a luxury it didn't have in Pearl. Faint Attack.

With that said, I defeated every one of the Gym Leaders on the first try... Candice was just the trickiest to take down, and that's not even going into her gym puzzle...
 
Gardenia was the hardest gym for me, since I started with Piplup, and I was underleveled a bit. Took me about 5 tries to win, but I managed to take her down. The other gyms were a breeze for me.
