Lots of moves are annoying on enemy Pokemon, but the most annoying one on a Pokemon I'm using is Feint. It's more useful than Splash, but just barely.

Feint would be good as a counter for, say, if a person you battle often uses a Shedinja that uses Swords Dance and Protect to pass speed and attack boosts to something else with Baton Pass--you could attack it on the turns you know Protect will be used and foil his plans!

The attack Constrict really annoys me alot!
for me, it's better to have Splash (because it's cute :D ) than to have a Constrict .
Bind/Wrap is way better than Constrict.
:P

Here: Constrict

Stone f***ing Edge. Because half the Pokemon in Gen. V either know it or can learn it, and it gets used excessively on you during the game!

In-game I **** hate Double Team/Minimize because whenever my pokes use it, it never works. But if the foe uses it once, BOOM; they become untouchable. :frustrated: I even once made a comic about it once, but I deleted it

In competitive battling, its Stealth Rock. Its horribly unbalanced and the metagame would be 99% different without it. With Spikes or Toxic Spikes, you need several turns to do it. But with SR you just need one turn of setup for full effect. And it makes things that are weak to it lose a huge chunk of health just by switching in. :frustrated:

@Shuckle, I completely agree with you in both In-game and competitive battling! Stealth Rock is devastating and very aggravating!

Any confusion move is absolutely annoying in-game! Confuse Ray, Supersonic, Swagger, Sweet Kiss, as well as side effects from Confusion, Psybeam, Dizzy Punch, really the list goes on. Competitively it's not a problem. Just switch and its gone. But in-game when you're trying to train a certain Pokemon... it's very aggravating.

When I first started my game and my pokemon were weak, quick attack was my number one enemy. I still hate how you and your opponent are on their very last HP and you know you're going to win because you are faster and then- quick attack. :evil:

You forget to add in Detect. Well, if you choose moves like Fly, Dig or Solarbeam when the opponent uses Protect/Detect, then the situation is not too bad for you. :D

-Softboiled/Recover
-Protect/Detect
-Sand attack/Double Team
-Stun powder/Thunder Wave
-Sleep powder/Hypnosis
-Attract
-Confuse Ray
-Toxic/Poison powder
-Substitute

It's pretty boring when you get infatuated at same time has paralysed and confused, then your foe won't stop doing Double-Team. Then when you attack them, they protect or they do softboiled/recover.

The most boring team against you in double battles:
{jynx}
Sweet Kiss
Attract
Protect
Ice Beam

{blissey}
Softboiled
Seismic Toss
Thunder Wave
Minimize

I hate all the moves like Confuse Ray that makes you confused. It's like, what where you thinking Nintendoe, did my poke really just hear me say, "Hit yourself!"? :frustrated: I really wonder who came up with that. :frustrated:

I dislike attract too, but at least my Gardivoir isn't beating itself up. I find that if you shout really loudly at your pokemon in you D.S. that the Pokemon they have just fallen in love with really wants to get hit by the attack and have a good battle, it works.

Sort of. :mrgreen:

There's usually not 1 attack that fulfills this question and the answer is very situational. But I hate Spore when I'm the one using it. That's for sure.

I like to think of it more like your pokemon is hallucinating and staggering around, and ran into a tree and hurt itself when it's confused.
