ok so i was trying to get an electrike (soon to be manectric) with ThunderBolt, Thunder Wave, Roar, Crunch for my team... it took aeons for one of modest nature to hatch after i breed crunch onto it (i have at least three full boxes of reject electrikes)... then i EV trained for hours with the perfect evs, then i realized that it doesnt learn thunderbolt on its own (what the heck!?!?). so then i had to breed THAT onto it (now i have at least seven total boxes of electrikes i dont need). then i started EV training this one and i realized that i had taken the macho brace off to get the right EVs on hp but i hadnt put it back on after i fought like two hundred spindras. >< so now i am ev training again with the macho brace and i *hope* everything is going to go ok.
i was just curious. does anyone have any particularly bad training experiences you want to share? this was just so frustrating i had to share it.

Couldn't you get the TM?
Anyway, my bad experience has to be when I accidently reset my GBA when I was training my Lv.5 Ralts (it was a lv.46 Gardevoir when I resetted).

Once I trained all my pokemon from level 9 to Level 34 but than I forget to save and I was mad. Also there's the time I trained Dragonaire form level 43 to Level 53. I was mad when I forget to save because I want a Dragonite.

What did you do? Beat it half to death with a stick? XD Rofl!
My worst experience was when I was EV training an absol for high sp. Attack and realized at the end of the EV training that I had misread the effects of the nature it had, and the stats were all messed up. I'd invested five or six hours on that one pokemon.... *boils*
Close second was when I was trying to breed for an azurril and didn't realize I needed the Sea Incense. For some reason I thought getting the baby was random, so I kept 'em in there, popping out egg after egg... After three or four grueling hours of hatching, I gave up and went to an FAQ and saw my mistake. I was more laughing at my own stupidity than angry at that one, tho.

Back when I was younger and first starting out in Pokemon, I trained my Kadabra to lv. 100 and I didn't know he was one of the four at the time that you had to trade to evolve.

Yea I had a same kind of situation in POKèMON blue I trained my kadabra, Blastoise and Staryu to about level 78 against level 28 weepinbells (I trained blastoise because I always want my starter to be the strongest) and then I found out that kadabra and staryu don't evolve with level man was I angry it was pretty easy to beat the elite four though my staryu owned them alone buah buah buah.
