The Annoying Places in the Pokemon World

The Plasma Frigate once you beat the game. Was up to around 1AM one night looking.

Icy Path. So annoying. Slipping all around it takes me an hour to get around it each time.

The snowy routes took way to long.

Chargestone cave hates me. A joltik every 5 seconds.

And stark mountain just annoyed me to death.
 
The foggy route inbetween Celestic and Solaceon always annoyed me. To travel through that route, you can either teach a Pokemon the most useless HM in existence, or go through the route with half accuracy. Come to think of it, Mt. Coronet pissed me off too.

It's a bit of a shame with the snow routes imo. The gimmick of 'haha you have to walk slowly and can get stuck' sure was annoying (also why I dislike the Great Marsh), but it does make sense for a snowy part of the world, and furthermore the route music theme is one of my favourites, which is a pity.

Those two places were the most annoying. Not to mention Hoenn's giant ocean and the caves full of Zubat spread across different regions. That said, i think Unova in B/W2 is the best region to travel around in. You don't even need a HM move to get from Aspertia to the Pokémon League.

-Desort Resort
-The one that connects Lavender all the way to Fushia
-Hoenn Victory Road

Actually, you do need Strength to get through the victory road. Victory roads, while on the topic, are usually post-game areas for me because by the time I get there I just want to challenge the E4!

Route 45/46 - Johto, so much to explore; you make one wrong move and bam. Do it again.

oh hai there
Caves. The zubat ambush everyone! It's like they position one every 5 steps DX Just imagine them waiting there.... staring at you.. until you finally step on them so they battle you. I'm talking about the early part of games with no max repel
 
Mt. Coronet because you have to go through it so many times. And it requires many HMs.
Wayward Cave(the one by the Cycling Road?) Yeah, because, um... why do I even go there now?
I don't like how this one Hiker was blocking a room in the DPPt Victory Road.
Cerulean City's kinda annoying, but ehh...
Jagged Pass is too linear.
The Snowpoint City's snowy paths (because even with a Fighting team, it's a pain to fight through Hail.) because of snow. Yet I like the routes near Wake's Gym, with the mud.
Mt. Mortar (or whatever it is connecting Kanto to Johto), because so much of it is unneccessary.
Pokemon Mansion
Seafoam Islands
Anywhere in PMD

"I like soup."

Dark Caverns before the handheld systems got backlights, especially in generation 2. What's annoying currently are places to EV train where encounter rates aren't 100%, training for defence is so annoying!

Whitney's gym, just because it leads up that annoying battle with her Miltank.

Really any area that has a lot of random encounters and trainers without a place to heal nearby annoys me. I just trudged through Victory Road in White 2 and I felt exhausted afterwards.

Rock Tunnel has to be the most annoying place ever ! I hated it in while I red and also playing leafgreen. It used to take a long time to pass it. What's worse is that after the long journey from Rock Tunnel, you reach the most spookiest place in the pokemon world !

Zubat caves and Tentacool seas.
Pastoria city's Safari Zone bogs annoy me, too.

Of science.
Castelia Sewers. I forgot to buy repels and went the wrong way :/ I mean, seriously Nintendo? What were you thinking when you created that place?

Turnback Cave.
It took me three days to get out.

I have to agree. I spent ages trying to find that guys lost item to get out, then realised you wern't meant to do it. Does that guy even have an item anyway? Then my younger broher did the entire thing in two minutes...
