Hardest Leader

[BanananaK]

{V7} I've never done a poll before, so this is kind of a new experienced. I saw that no one had done this and was like o.o. If anything is not allowed / too messy then let me know. I made some multiple choice and some not because some had so many options that multiple choice just works better.

My answers to the questions:

1: Valerie, Crawli, and Angie. Valerie is a nightmare because she's Valerie (even after the nerf ), Crawli I had a ton of issues with because the only time post-nerf I've fought him has been with fighting and psychic monotypes (total nightmare), and Angie... well, her team is kinda just super good against most Pokemon.

2: Melia has the most variety. Done.

3: Geara has ghost types. Tl;Dr, ghost types are a massive pain, and he has good ones with variety.

4: Probably dimensional rift and the whale. Gyarados was a NIGHTMARE and I gave up after literally no times where I got even close. The whale is just super hard without a specific Pokemon build for it, and if you're doing a monotype, you're gonna have issues. (For the record, I did dimensional rifts in general not because they are easy, but because there's already a dimensional rift poll right here.)

By the way if I missed anything, feel free to just point it out and I'll fix it.

For rivals, you forgot Amaria. For Xen, you forgot Neved and Eli & Sharon. I'd also say Madame X but you're expected to lose to her. For boss Pokemon, you forgot Groudon, Giratina, the Lunatone/Solrock fusion, and the K-9 gang. (also the Kecleon but again you're expected to lose)

Hardest leader for me is usually Keta (living), but on my latest run Amber was the only one I had trouble with.

Hardest rival for me is Nim.

Hardest Xen: Zetta at the Zetta/Geara double battle

Hardest boss Pokemon: Dimensional Rift Galvantula

Fixed! Thank you.

(And for the record, I remembered the Kecleon and Madame X but since they're 'impossible battles' I figured that I shouldn't really put them on)

I thought i was going to be a minority who thought Geara was the toughest Xen boss.

You also didn't specify on which version (although I assume on v7) but my answer is based on all version i have played.

Hardest leader: pre-nerf Narcissa. New Valarie doesn't even match her and I love it that way (because that's something I expect from ghost master, hehe). I was kinda sad she got a nerf but understand that it's for the sake of enjoyability. As for newer version, i find that the gym battle itself isn't that hard but Venam/Saki double battle was frustrating.

Hardest rival: Melia because of variety.

Hardest Xen: Geara at Zetta/Geara double battle kinda relieved we fight Giratina before and not at that double battle.

Hardest boss Pokemon: I don't see lvl 50 Shadow Mewtwo here so I vote for Parental Bond Dimensional Rift Galvantula.

Kk, put the V7 thing on. And I didn't put the shadow Mewtwo on because it's one of THOSE battles, but if I remember when we fought it at the Xen lab it was like 25... Am I missing something den?

[Edea]

I would put the Zetta & Geara double battle in the list. They were both somewhat challenging by themselves, but they were a nightmare together, with Melia only having 3 pokemons. It was essentially a 9 vs 12.

[Zargerth]

As for me:

Hardest Leader: Angie and Narcissa, picked Angie

Hardest Rival: Melia

Hardest Xen Boss: Geara & Zetta double battle

Hardest Boss Pokemon: The Whale

[HUEnd]

Here i go:

Hardest leader: Valerie (Angie ties it but i really got nailed on Valerie)

Hardest Rival: Nim (my team lacks good dark-types - I miss Scrafty really hard)

Hardest Xen Boss: Geara and Zetta/Geara double battle (total pain overall)

Hardest Boss Pokemon: Lunatone/Solrock fusion (atually i wasn't expecting that battle lol)

[Sr.F]

Hardest Gym Leader: Angie

Hardest Rival: Nim/Lorna

Hardest Xen Boss: Nastassia (Yeah, It´s true that battle is no longer available since Version 6, but that was how I feel in my opinion.)

Hardest Boss Pokémon: Dimensional Chandelure

I've been playing since V2 and Narcissa was never a member of Team Xen. o . o

I know I wanted to say Nastassia.

[ContestStarKarin281]

Hardest Gym Leader: Keta (Soul) and Angie

Hardest Rival: Melia (Due to most of her team are shinies)

Hardest Xen Boss: Zetta & Geara Double Battle (They're so rough)

Hardest Boss Pokemon: All Dimensional Rift Pokemon, Lunatone-Solrock Fusion

These guys are totally tough especially the dimensional rift Pokemon swept every each of my team, a losing frustration.

[Hect]

Here's my list:

- Hardest Gym Leader: Clearly Angie. This crazy woman gave me so much trouble. I can't even begin to comprehend how I made it through this battle alive.. I was so done, her damn Weavile just kept sweeping my entire team with "Beat up". After that experience I was more than ready to finally beat Angie up.

- Hardest Rival: Probably Melia. The fact that I don't like her all that much simply rubs salt into the wound.

- Hardest Xen Boss: The first fight with Zetta, clearly. The other one's I simply aced, at least that's how I remember it. Maybe I also failed like 3-10 times before. Some memories are best left forgotten, I suppose.

- Hardest Boss Pokémon: While all of them were tough, I think the Parental Bond Galvantula takes the cake.

[Lilleen]

Hardest Gym Leader: Crawli. His Volcarona was pain to fight against. I had to make sure every Pokémon of mine survives his other Pokémon so I could set up Toxic and let the Volcarona faint almost every member until it finally died to the Toxic.

Hardest Rival: Ren. I was going to choose Nim for this, but I found the last battle with Ren much more harder than Nim. His freaking Greninja with that stupidly unfair and broken ability Protean made me rage.

Hardest Xen Boss: The double battle with Zetta and Geara. Well ... I dislike double battles. Let's just leave it at that.

Hardest Boss Pokémon: Groudon. Same as with Volcarona: setting up Toxic and letting it faint almost everyone in my team until Toxic took it out.

[LeonTakashi]

As for me:

Hardest Leader: Narcissa, Valerie, and Amber

Hardest Rival: Melia obviously

Hardest Xen Boss: Geara & Zetta double battle

Hardest Boss Pokemon: The Whale, Groudon, and Parental Bond Galvantula
