i'd have to say whitney (normal type gym learder in gen. 2) because when you fight her you have to be equal or higher level to beat her only because of her miltank. if you can beat her while under leveled, you are amazing, or just lucky.

The rematch with Blue in FireRed/LeafGreen, where I could barely land a hit on his first Pokemon... granted, mine were completely underleveled, but usually I can compensate for that (hence the fact I could defeat the rest of the league). In this case I couldn't.
Some runner-ups would be Red in HG/SS and Steven Stone in Emerald. |

Hmm, out of the games I've played, I'd have to say... Cynthia in Platinum was the toughest to beat. Probably because I have usually 1 uberly awesome and 5 weak Pokemon (maybe a Legendary) when I beat the Pokemon champions but whatever

Not counting Champions, I think the hardest battles for me are:
Brock - R/B/Y (Start with Squirtle or Bulbasaur? Piece of cake. However, if you're like me and start with Charmander normally, this battle instantly becomes a hassle) Whitney - G/S/C (Her Miltank is a beast. I always struggle with her for some reason) Clair - G/S/C (Obviously since she's the last gym leader, she's going to be a challenge, but for some reason I always find her harder than the Elite Four.) Tate and Liza - R/S/E (Though I don't struggle as much now, my first few times through the game, these two were a real pain.) Drake - R/S/E (I always struggle against dragon trainers.) Lucian - D/Pl/Pt (He's killed me many a time. I'm used to him now, but my first playthrough, I actually found him harder than Cynthia) |

Lance in HG/SS. I was in 38-45s, and I had to trade from a game to get a pokemon to defeat his Dragonites! Then theres Red. He can screw you if you're not carful, and his Pokemon are WAY overleveled, but seemed a bit weaker then that level...

The whole series,huh? I'd have to say Gary Oak, when I was playing my Blue version once when I was little, I was at the time Gary Oak was in front of the Pokemon center and my only Pokemon left had 6 HP and I had no healing items, I raged.

I would say that the most difficult trainer for me to beat was Clair back in the days of G/S/C. None of my Pokemon ever had Dragon-type moves, and Ice-type moves were pretty hard to get your hands on, which made defeating three Dragonairs and a Kingdra a pretty daunting task.

In terms of high levels, definitely Whitney. I went in that gym around level 15 or so, and she beat my ass around like Duke Nukem in a strip club. As for sheer power, probably Barry on weekends in DPPt in the Fight Area. That guy's got a decent team!

Red. I remember the first time I battled him, I was just exploring Mt. Silver and thought he was another random trainer in a cave. It didn't end well, especially since his first Pokemon was Pikachu and mine was a Gyarados.
AND THEN. In SoulSilver, I was expecting an Espeon and he pulls this Lapras crap on me... So yeah. It's Red. |

Poketopia guy. Especially because I battled him BEFORE I started EV training. I beat him, luckily.
On the portable side: I guess Steven. I think, when I first got Ruby, my team wasn't good against Steel types. I was pretty young, so... |

Unlike most people, Whitney never proved to be a problem for me in GSC or in HGSS. In my most recent run of Arkeis's hack, Hard Gold, I used an Oblivious Slowking to easily decimate her team.
GHETSIS, on the other hand, is a completely different story. That Hydreigon was broken and it wasn't even legal at the level it was at. You had to pretty much rely on the fact that he would miss an attack so you could kill it off with something before your entire team was annihilated. |
