I'd have to say the two most annoying things are Stealth Rock and Permanent Weather.  It just annoying when I see a weather lead. 

I know I use spikes sometimes but, it still bothers me when people spam all of the entry hazards then use freaking Whirlwind/Roar...

Any and all weather abilities. You don't need any skill to use a weather team, so noobs always go with them.

People really don't have time to phaze anymore because the super offensive metagame doesn't give many pokemon much time to set up entry hazards. I used to hate permanent weather but then I realised that I can't really get away from it. Its here and its staying so complaining won't make it go away. Plus I'm really liking my sand team :P


Any and all weather abilities. You don't need any skill to use a weather team, so noobs always go with them.

You would be right if you made this statement about 2 months ago. Now there are certain restrictions on weather team and people are more familiar with them. It now takes just as much skill to make a succesfull weather team as it does any other team because you have to work around the weaknesses of a weather team.

As for annoying abilities I would have to say that I don't really care for moxie. It would be great if a psychic type had the ability though (:

Speed boost can be annoying, but in general I hate prankster more.

Hate to say it but I think hail is the only reason monoice teams don't die in about 10 seconds. But this is comming from me who can normally take out a monoice team with 6-15 turns.

THIS as well as Requiem.
The thrill in playing a game does not come from our chances of winning. It is the weight and pressure of losing that fuels our fascination. It is why people challenge, why they gamble and why they compete. The adrenaline that comes from defying defeat is what motivates us.
