^ Agreed.

I mean, I see why she could be hard in theory, but I usually carry a female pokémon by that point anyway :/

Plus, I tend to use decently bulky pokémon anyway.

Gengar+Hypnosis+Dream Eater is no win for Morty.

Then again, I'm too lazy to evolve eevee to umbreon.

I would always choose Cyndaquil, so Whitney was obviously hard for me.

I always found Falkner hard for some reason, I usually got knocked out by his Pidgeotto.
Clair was hard too, her Kingdra is really strong!

And after that her miltank wasn't any easier

Bugsy for me cause in Pokemon Gold i chose Chikorita obviously it would be harder to beat Morty because of the same 'Grass' type pokemon , i had to spend some time training up Bayleef a couple of levels so i could battle Bugsy the other gym leaders after that were easier cause i caught more pokemon :)

For some reason, Jasmine was the toughest for me and I don't know why but I do know that steelix was a pain more so than in pokemon stadium 2 (using rental pokemon) but afterwords she was a breeze /CENTER]​

When I first played through Gold I didn't have a hard time with Whitney. For some reason, I had a hard time with Clair, she would paralyze my Pokémon with Thunder Wave and defeat most of them.

I actually had more problems with Clair cuz I only used Typhlosion heavily at that point. (That friggin Kingdra! DX) Whitney was also a pain, but had a successful plan to teach my Quilava Rollout (via TM at the time) and Rollout Miltank before she could Rollout me.

Clair, mostly because of her Kingdra. Her Dragonair? No problem, Jynx has Ice Punch. Kingdra? Can and will knock out any pokémon I'll throw at it.

They should ban Miltank's Rollout! There are so many ways to make it not hit, but I still come to her gym unprepared every single time. D:

I'd say Whitney or Clair. I trained my team for hours on Route 35 to beat Whitney in Crystal.
