The most difficulty I remember were the random trainers in the Reflection Cave using Hawlucha and Throh, they're really strong for that point in the game and have good coverage (more like this would be good for challenge).
Korrina in Geosenge might have been rough if I didn't have Honedge, who completely walls that fight.
But yeah, too easy. I loved XY, but it's far too easy.
