What's the most difficult experience against a gym leader you've had?
>>26465822
Mine is your pic related. Her miltank always creamed bro. No pun intended
>>26465822
None.

Misty's Starmie in Pokemon Omega Red.
Fucking BoltBeam fucked my life up.
Cheesed it out by putting it to sleep with Jynx and used Fake Tears on it until I could break through it.
Sky's Hippowdon in Pokemon Sky.
Curse Hippowdon with Slack Off.
I had no water or grass attackers, and I boxed my only toxic user.
I actually fucking PP stalled him to death.
>>26465822
Diantha.
Seriously, her Gardevoir mutilated my lvl100 Hydreigon, oh my god. And her Tyrantrum? It means business. You have no idea how much Head Smash does until it hurts your Talonflame, even after using Brave Bird on it. It's scary.
So... Whitney thread, anyone?
>>26465822
Whitney can be a bitch when you are unprepared. But Clair in GSC was worse, her Dragonair and Kingdra are fucking assholes, and she will be quick to paralyze your ass.
>>26466099
I kinda hate her for not giving me the badge until later. At least Whitney gives it to you right when you leave.
Not gym, but karin's houndoom always fucked me up with nasty plot
>>26466095
Sure sure
>>26466095
Yes
I bet she is really innocent and shy
He's pretty tough, although he kept telling me the actual gym was 2 blocks down
>>26466179
Did you told him to go fuck himself?
>>26465822
That fucking watchog
I remember having to try at least more than once to get through this gang of fuckers if memory serves me. More so than any other set of gym leaders.
>Watson's Manectric and motherfucking Static
>Flannery's Torkoal with it's incredible defense
>Norman's bulky ass Slaking
>Winona's Altaria and Dragon Dance
>Liz & Tate's Solrock and Lunatone shitting on my Blaziken
>Juan's Kingdra's Rest/Chesto recovery and subsequent Full Restore.
Emerald gyms really found a place in my heart and memory.
Honorable Mentions
>Koga
>Sabrina
>Whitney
>Clair for being an annoying fucking baby, give me my fucking badge.
>Fantina
>Crasher Wake
>This bitch >>26466185
>Elesa's Volt Switch/Static bullshittery
In hindsight, they were all real neat fights to overcome.

Fighting Brock in Pokemon Red as a child with Charmander as the starter, a Nidoran, Pidgey and Rattata, and not knowing about Butterfree being useful. I didn't know what to do so I had to grind up to Charmeleon before I could even manage to beat him.
Then the next Gym's entirely water types.
Can't say I've ever struggled against any gym leader. The only main time things got heated was against Morty back in Gold/Silver, his Haunter and Gengar outsped everything I had and always hit with Hypnosis no matter how many times they used it.
> Milktank Bitch
> Watchhog nigger
>Altaria and Dragon Dance

>using brave bird on tyrantrum
>tfw never won against a frontier brain
>>26465822
Whitney isn't super threatening. During a challenge run, I overprepared for a Mareep solo.
Clair is a bit of a bitch though.
Another challenge run had far too much issues with Cynthia's Milotic.
Clair in Crystal, but I was seriously underleveled on purpose and needed to hit multiple low accuracy moves while not receiving any crits or paralysis from Dragon Breaths.
>>26469099
i always taught my quilava dig right before her gym and everytime she started rollouts i just dug. i dont see how people had this much of a problem against whitney.
Brock in Yellow as a kid. It's so fucking dumb to think about the number things I could have done against him.
Emerald fucked me up big time. Still the only game where I've had trouble against more than one gym leader.
First Norman fucks your ass with his Slaking, better hope your pelliper knows protect.
Then right after you have Winona with that fucking Altaria
Then Tate and Liza with urfquake spam.
Then Juan with his Kingdra that effectively had no weakness because good luck getting a semi decent dragon move before then. Also lol resto chesto.
>>26469235
It's me or Elite 4 was easy compared to the gyms?
>>26466089
Is this bait? Because from a series of sentences like that it's obvious you're just terrible
Wattson doesn't fuck around, good fucking luck even if you brought Combusken because he'll oneshot it anyway.
I beat him first time with a fucking Nincada using its typing to block Shockwave and Sand Attack to stop Sonicboom, then slowly scratched it to death. Best gym battle ever.
>>26469239
None of the E4 used tactics like the gym leaders did, so the E4 did seem a lot easier than the gym leaders.
>>26465822
Blue's gym in GSC.
Challenging and fun.
>>26465822
Alexa, simply because my team was not leveled up enough to deal with a Vivillon.
But every single one of them were easy. Anybody who had an issue with Whitney was a dumb child/very unfortunate in their Nuzlocke.
