4th Gen Which was the hardest gym to beat?

[Elsword]

Gardenia, I guess.

She managed to kick my ass a few times even though I had a Monferno and Staravia..

 

[Sol Rovyn]

I'd still go with Candice because her gym was annoying, to say the least.

 

[Infernhawk]

For the gym puzzle I would say Candice's Gym. For the gym battle I would say Roark. Starting out with Chimchar wasn't good for me, going into that gym with only Chimchar, Staravia, and Shinx.

 

[FrostPheonix]

rock gym cuz his rampardos or whatever his fossil poke was kept on ko'oeing my piplup before it hit. I hated him.

 

[MysticFlygon]

In DP it was always Fantina and in Platinum I always struggle with Gardenia and her Roserade unless I picked Chimchar as my starter which I rarely do.

 

[Kamitsure-chan]

I always struggle the most with Fantina and Candice, regardless of what starter I pick. :/ So they'd be the most difficult for me.

 

[mishy.]

On my Platinum, the only gym that I had a problem with was Volkner, and it was probably because I was a little underleveled. Not to mention that I didn't have a ground move, and two of my Pokemon were weak to Electric. Took me three tries to defeat him, and the third try was only because I had my Empoleon left (his Raichu died of poison after killing my Togekiss. Thank god for Roserade and Toxic Spikes).

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

Hardest battle- Fantina, I spent too much time raising ground and normal types
Hardest gym maze- ... I dunno! Maybe Candice's snowball smashing maze?
Easiest gym battle- Candice and Maylene, I had a level 59 flareon and level 35 staraptor ready for those gyms- it was a piece of cake

 

[Lt_Nite]

As I recall in Platinum none were that hard at all due to me making my team more well rounded, but in Diamond I clearly remember always struggling on the Ghost gym, every time.

 

[NejiForce]

Hm DPP The Gyms where really cheap Ele ´was a joke
(I´d nearly say that the rock at the begin was the hardest because I hadn´t any trained Poki...

 

[Aquacorde]

I had trouble with Wake sometimes, just because I never really have Pokemon that are very effective against his. And of course Maylene and her Lucario like to cause me pain.

 

[FlamingThunder]

The Water type...ugh. The next time you'll see me is never! Crasher Wake!

 

[xEoNx]

I had trouble at the steel gym, but I was underleveled with all of them being 24 or lower.

 

[Raichupacabra]

I guess Gardenia was hard (I only had Prinplup lvl 35)
Its just that Turtwig used Reflect so peck was weak.

 

[Andrew Ryan]

Wake gave me the most trouble, mostly because I had pokes that were really water weak. (Infernape, ect.) and my pokes were under-leveled.

 

[SpeedRave13]

I'm gonna have to say Fantina. I never really had issues with Maylene, but Fantina's stupid ghosts always gave me trouble. I just never have moves that can hit Ghosts for heavy damage at that point in the game it seems.

 

[vaporeon7]

I had problems with Volkner in my Flying Monotype. I didn't have as much with Candice though.

 

[Alternative]

I've always found Gardenia tough to fight. Not so much that she's hard to beat, but with useful support moves like Reflect and Sunny Day it can become quite hard. Also taking in however fat your Pokemon can be in terms with her Roserade as well, with it's immense special attack that it comes with. D:

 

[blue]

I'm not really sure about D/P/PT possibly either Gardina, Maylene, Byron or Volkner.

 

[AncienTLorD86]

The steel gym is hard to me since i choose tugwit as my starter and i dont have fire type pokemon...:(
