Liza & Tate- easiest Gym Leaders?

[Ade Tyshio]

I wonder if Liza & Tate are easiest Gym Leaders in Pokémon Ruby. I defeated them with two moves! They event couldn't use their Potions and single move!

Breloom uses Mach Punch- Lunatone's HP cut to less than half
Blastoise uses Surf- both Solrock and Lunatone fainted.

It is a joke? Or a glitch? They're just to easy. Note that each one Gym Leader before I needed a rematch to defeat them!

Nah, they were pretty easy in RS, but in Emerald I had a really hard time. The Claydol refused to diiiiiie. >.>

 

[Petey]

IMO, they are the toughest till date in Emerald.
Most of RS was sweepable, so same here.

 

[Ade Tyshio]

But before, also in Ruby, it was harder. How they could be easier even than Norman?

I thought you said they were easy. o.o'

Im sure they are if your using a traded blastoise. U are brave using a breloom with a 4* weakness against phsycic. I thought they were harder than all the other gyms. They fainted all my pokes exept gardevoir.

I guess you are using Emerald. I don't think if they were difficult in Ruby...
About Breelom... Whoops. I forgot that.

I sort of get the feeling they were planned to be easy, because Double Battles were seen as a novelty, and they weren't sure if people would be up to trying this new thing out "for real".

I thought they were easier in RS but they were incredibly difficult (at least for me) in Emerald.

 

[Ade Tyshio]

But if they should be easy, shouldn't they be a previous Gym? Let's say, 5th. They are much too easy for 7th Gym.

 

[Ino-Chan]

The 2nd easiest for me. Walter was hard

 

[Zeta]

. . . . Walter?

 

[Ino-Chan]

Sorry. The last gym.( I haven't played in a few months

 

[Floyd™]

They're easy, because they have only 2 pokémon

 

[Ino-Chan]

I had a Blaziken and a pikachu the 1st 2 times before I got smarter.

 

[Turtle Tamer Kammy]

In the same respect, I thought Winonna was easier (to get to at least, damn maze) in Emerald. But I will agree that most of the RS gyms were pretty sweepable; I got my last badge with only my Swampert D:

 

[Crankyman]

Really, If they just have all of thier Pokemon out at the same time, then it's pretty easy to crush them with one move, like a STAB Surf.

 

[Æsahættr]

In RS, for some reason, even though I chose Torchic, I had a really hard time beating Norman the first time around. Although, yes, a well placed Critical Hit on my Ludicolo's Surf was more than enough to take care of Tate and Liza.

 

[barónmon]

I had ease with the bug type leader on Crystal.

Hardest is Brock in Yellow.

 

[The Big Al]

You use Mankey or one of the Nidoran who have Fighting moves for Brock in Yellow.

Liza and Tate are either easy as hell or a pain. It depends if you kill them before they use Sunny Day to shut down SUrf or not. Use a high level, relatively fast and powerful Water Pokemon and you'll wind with relative ease. However, the battle is a nightmare if they get out a Sunny Day as many of their attacks are powered up by it.
