    I was training my Meganium on Victory Road, and a Medicham popped up. Here is the battle:

    My Meganium used Light Screen!

    Medicham used Power trick!

    Meganium used poisonpowder!

    Medicham used power trick!

    Meganium Used Petal dance!

    Medicham used power trick, etc. etc.

    I killed it in not too many turns :P
     
    I can't recall any off the top of my head, but I've had several battles where the opponent keeps spamming a bunch of non-damaging Moves to boost there Poke's Stats... Only for e to wipe them out in one turn. Unless they keep boosting Defense/Special Defense... Then it gets annoying.
     
    Also, and I forgot to mention this earlier, all of the Channelers in LeafGreen's version on the Pokemon Tower kept commanding their Gastly and Haunter to use Curse... When it was their last Pokemon, and its health was already halfway down.
     
    While my Ninjask was in training, I encountered a few Octillery.

    Ninjask used Sword's Dance!

    Octillery used Bullet Seed!

    Ninjask used Bug Bite!

    Octillery fainted!

    This is the battle strategy for most of Octillery I encountered. Must spend lots of time on Smogon (sarcasm).

    In addition, Morty used curse with Haunter, his last Pokemon, while it was below 50% health, during my HG battle with him.

    In Pokémon Emerald Brawly kept ordering his Meditite to use Focus Punch everytime, so I didn't receive any damage because I kept attacking it.
     
    Ugh... Battle Tower...

    Playing a Double Battle with Marley as my partner. Unfortunately I'd lost both of my Pokémon and she was now battling. Despite the fact the opponent had very little HP, Marley refused to use a damaging attack (even though it would have been super effective, the foe had used no Accuracy lowering or evasion raising moves) and it definitely had the PP. So why the freak did I lose that battle?
     
    I hated in the beginning of the game when we battle our rival all they do is growl :/
     
    I don't know if I should call it the worst AI or the AI that cheats.

    I was playing Pokemon Blue and I picked Charmander and my rival picked Squirtle.

    It kept using leer and I kept scratching it until it only had one hit to go. Now this is serious, I missed 4 turns in a row and it used tackle on me afterwards and I lost.
     
    Umm... The Battle Tower in Diamond a few days ago... I used Kingdra, they had Wingull...

    "Kingdra used Substitute."
    "Wingull flew up high."
    "Kingdra used Dragon Dance."
    "Wingull used fly! The Substitute took the damage for Kingdra"
    "Kingdra used Dragon Dance."
    "Wingull flew up high."
    "Kingdra used Dragon Dance."

    ... You get the rest. That battle was pretty simple after that.
     
    I once was fighting a Mismagius in the Battle Tower, and I was down to my last pokemon with only 20 HP or so, and Mismagius was the last Pokemon, and it was at full health. It decided to use Memento on me. Stupid AI indeed, although I am glad it benefited me! :)
     
    Gengar used thunder
    Gengar's attack missed!
    Gary's Blastoise used rain dance
    It started to rain!
    Gengar used thunder
    Gary's Blastoise fainted!

    Wow gary, smart move.
     
    Vileplume used Sweet Scent!
    Vileplume used Sweet Sent!
    Vileplume used... GAH, ENOUGH ALREADY! That's every step in the dungeon! Screw this mission, I'm using an escape orb!
