Most frustrating move
What, in your opinion, is the single most frustrating move, either to use yourself or have used against you?
Mine, for both categories has to be focus blast. I've raised quite a few 'mons who need it for coverage reasons, however I swear its accuracy when I use it is more like 20%. However, whenever someone uses it against me, it always seems to connect! Gahhhhhh I never want to see those little swirling balls of whatever again.

Re: Most frustrating move
Recover and its family, combine with substitute and confusion/attract for extreme trolling, its also very annoying if your opponent goes full evasive and you cant even land a single hit, you claw your way past the green HP bar and *enemy <pokémon> used recover* you get it.

To use myself: Blizzard. It seems to always fail just when I need it.
To have used against me: Outrage. It even managed to hit every single time when the pokemon was confused from fatigue.

Re: Most frustrating move
I dislike any moves that slow the battle down. I usually use quick Pokemon that hit hard. Recover, Protect, Substitute, confusion, paralysis, etc. mess with my style!
I have the worst luck with Focus Blast too. I swear it hits every time against my Lucario. :(

Re: Most frustrating move
Encore. I've reffed that move so much in URPG. Especially when it's used with Prankster Whimsicott or Sableye. Forces you to switch or have your opponent sweep.
Oh, and don't forget SLP/CON haxing moves.

Re: Most frustrating move
I loooove using Outrage, but it always fatigues at 2 turns. Everyone opponent on earth has it fatigue at three. :C
I have a Ninetales on FR/LG and I have Confuse Ray, Attract, and Will-O-Wisp on it. It's PWN.

Re: Most frustrating move
Thunder Wave and Recover being used against me is pretty annoying and whenever I use Zap Cannon, it never hits for me! D=<

Re: Most frustrating move
Who here remembers in XD: Gale of Darkness when you fought the trainer with the Double Team/Rest/Sleep Talk combo? Worst thing ever. Takes FOREVER to win, if you even have the patience.
So yeah. I always cringe against Double Team.
