First avy..no touchy
My toughest battles were Lucian and Volkner.

For Lucian I had a Dialga, Luxray, and Roserade as the only Pokemon over level 50. I switched in other Pokemon then Revived my Dialga.

But Volkner was not as hard seeing I could use Roar of Time.

For me I would say the elite four champion Cynthia, Because her Spiritomb wiped most of my team I guess there levels werent high enough. But I beat her on my first try cause i had lots of revives.

My toughest would be a battle with my Japanese friend. She almost beat me with her Darkrai. But I managed to get her with my Lucario.

I like feraligatrs!
I lost to:

Roark
Gardenia
Maylene

Roark totally killed my piplup with his insistent headbutting...

Gardenia sweeped my team cause I didn't have a fire type and I didn't know that flying type attacks are strong against grass types!

Maylene's Lucario!! hate that thing. It OHKOed my staravia!

after those incidents I always trained my team to be almost at par if not above the Gym leader's/

Aaron: Drapion and Vespiquen are evil
Lucain: Bronzong and Medicham are evil
Cynthia: All except Gastrodon are evil

If you don't level up your Pokemon like crazy the game is pretty hard by the end.

In this game, against Cynthia. It took me forever to get past her, because I was basically only using my Empoleon. >>

All: Hmm... I sometimes forgive Gym leaders (only sometimes) when they defeat me. All of them were fairly challenging, but I managed to get through them. I had some trouble with Gardenia and Maylene, but Candice and Volkner were very easy. I actually feel sorry for Volkner because he had no defense over my Graveler...

I think the toughest battle for me was the E4 Psycic leader, mainly her Bronzong considering its lvl and it have psycic which was super effective agasit my pokemon which were all below lvl 60.

Lucian was pretty much the toughest battle I managed to defeat.

The grass type gym leader was really hard for me, the only reason I won was because all my pokemon had fainted and I only had a really weak chatot left. It used peck and it was a critical hit, and I won.

I have two that are tied.

Both OU:

Brettmeeink- Top 10 of marriland and his pokes get n my nerves.


SkittyOnWailord- She walled my blissey with a PARALYZED GENGAR. Got on my nerves so bad. I eventually beat her with my Jirachi, but it was so annoying. She had like 4 crits in that match. Gah.
 

GarchompHata

I feel sick...
It was on wifi, E-vire Vs Hippowdon. Hippo swept everything, except E-vire.I used Ice punch, got a crit, and won
