The Most Annoying Pokemon to Encounter

Golbat. Everything you hate about Zubat, except doubled. They have Confuse Ray by then, too. Unless you have a faster Pokémon (Not too difficult, but not too easy either. It gets worse if you're training a slow Poké) or a super effective one, Golbat is a nightmare. The buggers tend to annoy me the most in Hoenn's Victory Road.

Most other Pokémon are easy to deal with. The most annoying tend to be the very fast ones that either Status you or raise their Evasion.
 
I'm glad they took out (for the most part) Geodude and Zubat in Gen V. To quote IGN when they were speculating on B&W: "As sure as the sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening, and as sure as kids of a certain age will try to eat anything given to them, when you walk into any cave in Pokemon you will encounter two Pokemon- Geodude and Zubat. Why?!"
 
Teh bashing continues for Zubat/Golbat, Geodude, and tentacool.

Personally, for me the nidorans are annoying... I spent 5+ (!) hours looking for a yanma, and all there was on that route otherwise were fucking nidorans.
 
Any pokemon thats far weaker than my own.

True example:

You encountered a lvl 23 Wynaut!

Go lvl 71 Aggron!

Shadow tag prevents running!

Me: FFFUUU!

Aggron used Rock Tomb!

Wynaut used Counter!

Its super (4x) effective!

Aggron was left with 20 hp!

Me: FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU!!!!!
 
Metapod in Viridian Forest.

I despise running into Magikarp when you have a slow Pokémon up front. There's something so embarrassing about not being able to run from Magikarp.
 
Ratatta in HeartGold. Its on almost every route, cave and building. Tentacool in any game is a pain in the neck and don't even get me started on Zubat and Geodude.

I'll just add Wingull and Oddish to this and that's my answer.
 
I thought harder about this...Tabunne.

Seriously; when you're looking for something like one of the monkeys, a Crobat or Metagross...those sodding Tabunne! They appear all the time!
