Please..Nuuuuuuuuu! Yes!

Well, the title is a bit odd..But I wanted to catch your attention ;D. This topic is about your worst Pokemon scares, anywhere from the game itself, to in the game, like having KO-ed Ho-Oh, to competitive. Like, my worst scare was when my game froze, and I thought my file was corrupted, after spending about 100 hours on my SoulSilver, I turned off the DS and turn it on, and it shows no game inserted! So I was really scared, thought I was about to pee my pants XD. Turns out it was some weird malfunction o.o. Anyway, so whats your worst scare(s) in the Pokemon games?:p.

[The Corrupt Plague]

Entering a code into an action replay in the GBA games incorrectly or glitching it out too much and getting treated to a freeze with a horrible buzzing sound definitely counts if you hear it for the first time.

Running into high leveled NFE Pokemon in Black. That gave me a shock because I normally don't see NFEs at very high levels.

[DarkAlucard]

Game freeze when you're tweaking (D/P), i spend several hours doing this but always when game freeze, i have bad feelings about my cartridge.

[Shining Raichu]

My Pokemon Silver - that feeling of cold dread that travelled down my spine when it told me that my game, that I had spent something like 47 hours doing, had been corrupted. I was like 10 years old, so I think that ended with me in tears

[Sydian]

Blue randomly freezing while I was playing. Really made me mad when I had been playing for a while and it froze on me after I did a lot of important stuff.

[Tyranee]

I caught a Lugia (after like forever), tried to duplicate it in Gold (Gen 2, not Heartgold), and it disappeared. I was mad.

[deoxys121]

Back when I first got Gold and Silver when they were the new Pokemon games, I had put well over 100 hours of play into Gold. My team's levels were between 75 and 80, and I was able to totally KILL Red. Let's see if I can recall my team, though I was like 10 at the time: Feraligatr, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Lanturn, Tyranitar, and I can't quite recall the last one. Anyway, one day I turned on my GBC, and saw that the only options were New Game and Option, and my jaw dropped and hung open for 30 seconds. Apparently the whole battery running dry issue that was relevant of the 2nd generation occured.

EDIT: I think I kept a free slot for training Pokemon that I needed to level up in order to evolve and get them in my Pokedex. When not training those, I had a Dragonite.

I had just bought Leaf Green and when I put it into my GBA and switched it on, nothing happened, and I was like "you have GOT to be kidding me..." tried it again and luckily it worked no problem but even so, that initial fear was pretty big lol!

Also when my Silver couldn't save anymore. Absolutely heartbreaking.

This.

One day I was playing my Silver and I was in the middle of looking for Larvitars, and then I found a shiny one, caught it and then saved. When I went back to play it, the file was corrupted D: 78 hours wasted D:

[smithtism]

My worst scare was when I...dropped my GBC and Pokemon Blue...

Spoiler:

in the...toilet.

(clears throat)

[Cataclysmic]

Well, a sort of recent one was when I was trading one of my friends my shiny Pichu so that he could get spikey-eared Pichu in HG. During the trade, my wifi crapped out and shiny Pichu was no more. x_x

There are also tons of glitch related things in the first two generations, but those sorts of things probably happened to everyone lol.

Did your battery run dry on your original Gold cartridge, too?

Actually, the batteries are still working in my Silver and Gold, but Crystal ran dry a few months ago during a replay.

[Seeds Horizon]

My Silver had that happen! I cant save anymore, and ive actually created a challenge to see how far I can get without the battery running out (By leaving it on while I dont play it.) My farthest is the fourth gym, because I went to sleep shortly after that and the battery died . I remember once when my Red just completely failed on me, and it was so glitchy just turning it on. Yellow doesnt save anymore either..Though my Blue still works ;D.

[Rai]

My worst scare within the game is when I accidentally killed a shiny Swablu D: That was heartbreaking.

My biggest scare outside of the game was losing my Crystal version... I still can't find it :c

In game was me restarting my silver for the 100 and somethingst time, and finding my game not saving anymore I've repaired it though, so it should have power for at least 10 years more now

How did you repair it? Both my Gold and Silver have no memory left. I don't know if my Crystal does ;.;
