What's your most boring battle?

[Dan the Pokeman]

I just had the worst, most boring battle ever in BT!

I was using:

Registeel@Leftovers :cool:
Metal Claw (56 PP)
Rest (12 PP)
Curse (12 PP)
Amnesia (20 PP)

The tank-up/Rest strategy is obvious.

Well, the comp comes up with:

Registeel@Leftovers :(
Return
Rest
Curse
Amnesia

We both maxed stats fairly quickly; only Critical Hits did any significant damage, but neither one of us could get 2 CH's close enough together to KO the other. I used Rest strategically (only if I had damage on me), to force him to use 2 more attacks than I did. The comp somtimes used Rest w/o damage, which both wasted the attack and the opportunity to sit idle while I use 2 attacks.

I used up all my Curse and Amnesia PP, as I wanted to save my Metal Claw PP for when he used all his Rest PP.

Eventually, the comp began to use Struggle, and I could use Metal Claw without worrying about him gaining a Rest advantage, but it still took FOREVER to KO him, as Metal Claw was Not Very Effective and his Defense was maxed, and Lefties restored his health almost as fast as it was being removed. Finally, a Critical Hit took him to low in the red, but it still took about 8 more hits to KO that darned Registeel!

Finally, using Metal Claw and maxing out it's PP paid off!

Needless to say, I was GLAD to see that it finally get KOd.

I didn't want to just turn off the game, because I'm over 100 wins, and I wanted to keep my streak alive to see how far I can get.

Tanking up wins, but man it can be boring!

Anybody else have a long, drawn out (or otherwise boring) battle?

Oh, I will never forget the most annoying battle I've ever had. I was playing a friend of mine and we both decided to use UU pokemon just for fun. Eventually, we had only two pokemon left (I had electabuzz, she had sudowoodo) but knowing that she was at a disadvantage because sudowoodo had 6 HP left, she used explosion which KOed electabuzz.

Then we both summoned our final pokemon only to realize that they were both...
...
...
Wobbuffet...xD xD xD

Not only that, but both were equipped with leftovers and had attack IVs of zero. After using struggle for about 20 minutes, we decided to give up and call it a tie, lol.

~Skarmory VERSUS Skarmory (last Pokemon each)
~Magneton VERSUS Magneton (unless one has Hidden Power: Fire)
~a Normal Pokemon without an attack to hurt Ghost Pokemon

Any battle in which you can't do anything, but stall and waste your PP. Untill both players just have Struggle.

Registeel vs Registeel- It was my last pokemon i needed it to keep my perfect 100+ wins record- and just my luck that that had to come out. I couldn't toxic it and i could do nothin about it. Stuck for 10 mins, oh and of course i lost in the end. i was really p'ed off about it

[shineyaltaria]

Registeel vs Registeel is what I call the "battle from hell" that lasts for what seems like forever. I know. I've had it happen 3 times. Won once, lost twice.

Got all day?

In crystal I fought this trainer's Mr Mime with my WOB who only had like counter and mirror coat for attacks and neither pokemon had anything at all to inflict damage with. After a few minutes I just turned the game off.

Got On/Off?

[Slowbro's Master]

the longest battle i ever had was against a lvl like 6-something pelliper, once again my cuzins:

focus band(this kicked in at the most annoying time)

stockpile
swallow
spit up
protect

it worked surprisingly well. it was against my pidgeot(had a lvl diss. by like 4)last pokes...i was in the red and so was pelliper the only move i had left was fly so i tried, i flew up high and my cuz used stockpile a third time it used protect and blocked fly i flew once more and my cuzin used protect and it worked i thought there is no way it'll work a third time i got this..so my cuzin took a chance i hit it with fly and it HUNG ON WITH FOCUS BAND :eek: !!!! i was so po'ed and pelliper used spit up and won...i was speechless she took a chance and won!!!!! :mad:

[Black-Canary]

In the BT it was my cradily tank v his kindra w/DT. I killed it with struggle. he tried to struggle me but it didn't do too much.

[PaperLuigi]

Oh, god I have more than one.

1) Pokemon Stadium, Petit Cup, Gastly vs. Jigglypuff
I could have won, but the darn thing froze me, and soon ran out of PP for Blizzard, leaving it with only normal moves, and since back then you couldn't get out of Frozen status without an item, I was left with a battle even more boring than anynody's. (Since I couldn't even attack)

2) Sapphire, against Winona, Swampewrt vs. Altaria
Since I didn't give it an Ice move at the time, and since Muddy Water didn't work for some reason (Just like against Lunatone in Gym 7) I had a VERY VERY boring match ahead of me, and when the HP seemed to finally dwindle...

FOE WINONA USED FULL RESTORE!! :mad:

No offence to shineyaltaria, I think Altaria's are cool, but for god's sake, it was VERY boring.

Top that. :D

[Dan the Pokeman]

Wobbufet vs. Wobbufet, both with Lefties and both with 0 Attack IVs?

OMG, that would have to be the absolute worst.... I don't blame you for calling it a draw and quitting! I'm just glad it wasn't in the BT, as you don't get a draw there.
