Most Annoying Pokemon you have ever faced

Non non non!
Ok some more annoying pokemon.
Darkrai. With Dark Void, Bad Dreams, AND Nasty Plot, this thing is one hell of a troll. Dark Pulse's 30% flinch rate doesnt make it any worse...and not to mention that blistering 125 speed.

It's 20% chance to flinch. But yeah, I like to abuse Darkrai too, it's just... *thinks* fun.

Speaking of which, does anyone get annoyed at baton pass teams? Most of my team carries whirlwind/roar, but it's just kind of annoying lol.

Really? Given his poor special defense, and the fact that he's neutral to water and electric, I've never found him too tough to beat down, even without fire attacks.

Anything with Prankster tops my list, personally. Whimsicott is the obvious annoying little bugger, but Sableye and Thundurus also get special mention. Even if you're able to beat them, they can often leave a parting gift in the form of Stun Spore/Will-o-Wisp/Thunder Wave, respectively. And that's just... infuriating.

Careful? Where's the fun in that?

Makes me believe Sapper Sipper, Flash Fire, and LightningRod/Volt Absorb all have better purposes for existing now (as well as having beneficial side-effects)
 
Omg. When I was clearing the Battle Tower (which I did) in HG, I fought a Milotic with the moves Double Team, Aqua Ring, Confuse Ray, and Toxic, and it was holding Leftovers. I sat there battling it for 3+ hours praying for a hit, while trying to keep my Pokemon alive.

Lucky enough, Double Team (and all evasion moves) are banned in competitive battles and serve no purpose in double battles. But yeah, those in-game sites are brutal

I think I should mention Tormentran. Ha, I used to use that set myself, and it's a real pain in the rear to face.

Thankfully, no one uses it, but that's also why I'm never prepared for it.

class on my back
Yeah, Tormentran are pretty annoying..but they are rarely used :D
Maybe we could create a list for the most annoying pokemon and narrow it down for all of us? How does that sound?

Ferroseed in caves. Iron barbs is aggravating

This is the competitive section, therefore in-game things (such as Ferroseed in caves) do not count towards this thread.


I personally have found Amoongus to be very annoying. Mostly due to the fact that I never really prepared for it with most of my teams it really screwed with me. It's ability to cripple anyone with an 100% accurate sleep causes me to be very cautious in switching in. It's also very bulky, so even if you can get in without being put to sleep it can wear you down with either Poisoning or its attacks, or it can also cripple you with Paralysis from Stun Spore.

Any random nu/ ru pokes in ou and you have no idea what kind of set it runs. My friend nearly destroyed me with an NU team because I didn't know what any of his mon's stats were or how they operated
 

Razor Shiftry

Cynthia = Porn Star
Paraflinch/Parafusion abusing pokemon. I'm looking at you Togekiss, Jirachi and Machamp!

Also, anything with Prankster. Seriously. They all becomes bloody good irritating/supporting pokes in a nutshell. Liepard, Sableye, Whimsicott, Volbeat....just...no.

I managed to outstall a stallish team today using Sub Disable Gengar, he forfeited when I only had 1 shadowball left lol. Plus Gengar took out his only offensive mons. So I think it's safe to say Gengar was the most annoying mon possible for him
 

Mr. Cuddles

i like trains
Truant Durant + entrainment, and dodrio + hone claws. My whole team got swept by that yesterday D:

Also, Jirachi, Sableye and poison heal gliscor are damn annoying.
