To me the most Gym leaders are the ones that always cause status affects, Or Constantly swap with moves like volt switch, U-turn, etc. the most annoying gym leader in Univ is Elisa She constantly used volt switch and avoid my attacks. I must have challenged her a dozen times before I won but it's over now so I can relax. Anyway enough about me if you want to share your stores of trauma causing gym leaders, comment below.
 
Wallace. His ORAS attire just makes me uncomfortable.
 
Probably Clair in G/S/C, I always seemed to get Para'd from Dragonbreath and Kingdra was always difficult to deal with because of its great typing.
 
Oh boy. War flashbacks. Back on crystal against Whitney. That Miltank was the bane of my childhood. I spent weeks trying to beat it. The thing would constantly use rollout, which most people think would be an opportunity to hit it, right? WRONG! It'll get your Pokémon down to really low health, where you'd force yourself to heal instead of attack. And rollout only gets stronger at this point. Then it will eventually stop after murdering half your team, and since it's probably on yellow or red, it decides to drink milk. Adds a lot of salt to the wound. I had to overtrain to beat it @-@
 
I here you, I've spent so much time on that I just gave up and had my friend give me a Strong fighting type.
 
Candice. Mainly because of Grasswhistle and my lack of good typing at the time. This was with a Graveler and a Staraptor.
 
Whitney. That little, aggravating girl. Yeah as if rollout was not annoying enough, it uses milk drink. Bloody milk drink, soft-boiled for a cow. I rematched her exactly 57 times to actually win, with the addition of 10hrs grinding. It still gives me nightmares. For sure Clair is hard as well but Whitney is worse than youngster Joey. Lol
 
I am going to have to say Misty. Misty was annoying in general on the Pokemon tv show and every time I hear here voice in my head complaining to ash about her destroyed bike or something and it makes me so annoyed because she's just so bothering. And then she goes and insults all the bug pokemon in the pokemon universe and that's jsut not nice. Plus she has water types and my favorite poke is Charizard.
 
Whitney wasn't difficult when I played Soul Silver. But on Gold, I only lost to her ONCE! I didn't level grind either.

Whitney for sure, I'm sure this has been stayed over and over but Whitney 's Milktank did a number on my sanity haha. Fatina gave me a hard time as well.

Fantina from Pokemon Platinum ;-;
It's a ghost type gym but still it was hard for me since you'd have to battle that gym at an early point in the game, my Monferno couldn't really handle the psybeam spam from Mismagius >.> I think that I lost and I reset the game :p I think the next time, I won by spamming sand-attack from my Eevee :p Not the most effective way of winning but still, I won ^w^

Whitneys Miltank is evil. Constant spam of milk drink, rollout and stomp. When I first play SS her Clefairy used metronome and used roar of time! xD But her Milktank is so tanky, it just uses rollout and stomp until it gets low and uses milk drink. Whenever I face her I have nothing supereffective against her miltank so it is a pain. Clair is hard too. Her Kingdra is soooo annoying. I rematched Clair and Whitney a lot.

Clair! Her gym puzzle thingy was quite hard when I played Heartgold/Soul Silver for the first time.And her Kingdra was annoying.It swept my whole team thrice! (Lol I'm so noob :p ) But the more I fought her, it got easier.Whitney was annoying to many people who have played Pokemon.Her Miltank keeps using Roll Over and some other move and when it's HP gets low it uses Milk Drink.Whitney also got easier to beat in the end.

On emerald, I decided to start it over not to long ago. I decided treeko would be alright to start with, so I would have no problem with the first gym, the the second I could just use Swellow and it'd be gg from there. Well, third gym, the electric gym, I went in headstong and came out with less Pokédollars. Over and over maybe 20 times. I had Grovyle, Aron(the rollout + extra accuracy mvp), Swellow, Gyarados, Ninjask, and Shedinja(Why does an electric type have a rock move???). As you can see, I was not prepared for this electric type gym. The only way I won was when I lead with Grovyle to bait the explosion from Voltorb and switch to Aron then give it +accuracy while electrike used howl. Then I start the rollout and pray for no parahax until I beat the stupid magneton. After that, it was smooth sailing. There's that one, then there's Pokémon Yellow's Brock vs. my stupid Pikachu ;-;

I'd have to say for me the most annoying Gym Leader has been Candice in 4th Gen she wasn't hard to battle I just hated her puzzle not sure I just thought it was hard back then and it still gives me problems today xD

in your opinion, who would be the most annoying gym leader in Pokemon history? In my opinion I would have to say the normal type leader of ss and hg, and yes I did forget her name :p. Her miltank was literally, a TANK. You would get it into yellow, ok then, it uses drink milk, back to almost full, here we go agin. So... How was it for you...

Ghost pokemon platinum leader (Forgot her name) was really difficult to me her missmagius didnt even take damage with my Infernape ;-; but recently with torterra i beat her :p but eh when i had Infernape for me she was the mos annoying/difficult gym leader ive ever battled

I've only played Pokemon Red but I was REALLY annoyed at Misty. I don't think misty was that hard, but I only had Fire and Normal type Pokemon at the time. I had to catch a Paras and level it up to around level 20 in order to beat Misty, so this took me a couple of hours.

Same! The first gym leader that came to my mind was her, and I think her name is Whitney. Another gym leader I had a lot of trouble with was Wake, the first time I played platinum I got stuck in that gym for a really long time (I don't remember why it was so hard for me though).
