Hardest Unova Gym Leader

[Skittykitty1]

I'd say probably either Lenora or Clay. Even though I did pick the grass starter, Clay's last pokemon really gave me trouble. As for Lenora's normal types... they're such a pain. :K

It got really annoying having to catch and train a pidove just to beat the first gym leader! It got me thinking how hard the rest would be, but they were quite easy.

 

[Dattebayo]

Lenora was by far the hardest even with Pignite. I guess this is what we get for discriminating African Americans long ago. I was expecting Drayden to be much harder even with Druddigen, but it turns out he was easy to beat, and my Seisimtoad polverized Haxorus thanks to spamming Bulldoze.

 

[Zigzagoon_Fan]

I don't remember which one was hardest for me since I always save before challenging the leader and then shut the DS off if I'm almost out of my Pokemon. I think the dragon gym might have given me the hardest trouble cause I didn't have my Ice Pokemon leveled at the time and it wasn't in use. I change my strategy or I go level up some more if I have trouble and then I challenge w/o losing (cause I shut off if I almost lose). lenora may have given me trouble too

There's no "none" option?

 

[Firebird101]

Chili was hard for me too

 

[gandaf]

I never found any of them extremely hard...but the only one i lost too was clay...and i beat him on the second try. The leaders arn't too bad if you fight every trainer (and no wild). I can gaurntee i didnt even have the best team.

Chili-Snivy and a Patrat that disappered right after
Lenora-Audino and Swak(also disappered) But my Audino was main.
Burgh-Panpour and Whilipede
Elesa-Emolga, Servine, Gothita
Clay-Gothita, Servine, Either Whilipede or Scolipede (don't remember which)
Skyla-Emolga, Scolipede, Panpour
Brycen-Serperior(Coil FTW), Panpour, Audino, Gothorita
Drayden-Serperior, Simipour, Audino, Scolipede, Gothitelle, Emolga (my final team)

I don't like to use on guy more than once in a gym....other wise some wouldn't have took as much. Plus, Coil wipes amolst anything at max use. Megahorn and Siliverpowder helped too.

How did you manage that? Pidove aren't available until after you've obtained the first Unova badge :s

Lenora is strong because African Americans were discriminated against? Wow that's something to think about.

Anyway, I just remembered that Brycen is quite a challenge in his own right. I think the thing I dislike about his team is that it's composed of pure Ice-type Pokemon. Pryce from Johto and Candice from Sinnoh both specialized in Ice-type Pokemon as well but they had several dual-type Pokemon on their teams, which made battling them much easier. But here we have Brycen and his ice cream cone, his snowflake, and his bipolar bear and they're all pure Ice-types. FML.

Mostly Iris.......:/
She Was ANNOYING.

 

[BigWhite]

I only had a little trouble with the electric gym because I never pick up a ground type to use during the game. Other than that, everything else was pretty easy.

Wouldn't have helped too much, ground is uneffective against her 2 Emolga, and they spamed Double Team and Aerial Ace instead.

 

[TheTruth]

None of them were particularly hard, but the only one I had to reset on was Lenora. After two tries, I just went and caught a Timburr and crushed her.

I didn't think of that. Oh well, I got Victini and murked lol.

 

[coolminun]

Definitely Cilan and Chilli. I wanted both Oshawott and tsutarja for my journey, so I started with tsutarja first then traded to a friend to hold then started with osha. Chilli beat me 3 times. Damn pan sear burnt my oran berries and killed me with work up. Eventually I won because me and the puppy had a work up/growth battle and I smashed him a grass mixer.(This was without water monkey) Cilan beat my osha once, but I got him later

 

[darklazerman]

I would have to say the trio gym leaders. The only one I lost to(made me train my snivy to 16/17). The rest I was a few levels higher.

 

[PowerPikachu]

I was underlevel the whole game, but none gave me trouble exept for chili and drayden, who both took 2 tries to beat. First time for chili, didnt hav monkey.

 

[lucario beast]

white elesa took 3 times to beat
black cilan took 3 or 4 times to beat
easiest was
white brycen emboar swept him
black draydren fraxure defeated all of his pokes in 1 hite got a crit on haxouros

 

[Gallantry]

I don't think the 1 gym is the hardest when you get a free monkey from Dreamyard

 

[Sarcastic Oshawott]

I hate when retaliate is used against me. And that Lenora stooped my Oshawott from evolving into Dewott. But when I beat her, it finallyy evolved

 

[Samuraii:3]

Elesa was quite hard for me. My Herdier had barely beat her. Volt Switch is super annoying, plus I had Dewott, so he wasn't much help.
