Lots

Well, I've had lots of WTF moments since I hack.

But my favorite was when I was battling Aaron{e4} and when I killed his dustox, he sent himself out. Literally. It said "aaron" on the Pokemon name.
Since I had catch traniers Pokemon on, I caught him...
But it came up as a shiny magikarp D=

Went back to my Diamond game to capture Uxie. Sent out Empoleon and used Ice Beam. Instant freeze. Used a STAB Surf, and then tossed a Dusk Ball. Catch. Uxie's health wasn't even in the red. Low yellow maybe.

Easiest capture of a legendary to date.

My Chimchar starter was a female and I didn't even notice until it was level 20 something.

And then I realized all of the Pokemon in my party, along with nearly all of the ones in the boxes, were female.

MFW when all of my Pokemon are nicknamed after food dishes.

After completing the game I battled Rival again on a Saturday... when I saw his starter was at a higher level then even Cynthia, I was definitely like WTF! Somehow I managed to pull off a victory despite my Pokemon being Lv82-87.

Catching Giratina with single Ultra Ball like seriously, it never happened to me before.

Usually, I spent 20~30 min catching one legendary Pokemon but for Giratina, it took less than 5 minutes, just wow.

At least its shiny! :laugh:

Well, I have another WTF moment.
I wanted a Ralts in Diamond but I failed.
After beating Candice, I wanted to get a shiny Bidoof/Starly..
I expected a shiny but it was a Ralts.

YESSS MY FIRST GARDEVOIR!! I WILL MIGRATE IT TO WHITE :)

Gastly FTW

I think my WTF moment came from when going to catch Arceus and forgot to switch my pokemon out with some there where, "good" seeing as I had nothing but low levels in my team at the time. So when I see a level 11 Pachirisu jump out of the pokeball to fight this god of a pokemon, words could not discribe my disappointment at myself when my team was one shotted until I got to Gastly and I started just throwing ultraballs like a mad man and was happy that he went on a Refresh/Recover rant long enough for one ball to finally be lucky enough to catch him.

I was trying to catch Uxie late one night. I had 99 Ultra Balls, and 99 Dusk Balls. I just couldn't catch it. And it only took me 4 turns to catch Azelf. I restarted so many times on Uxie. Then I had run out of basically every ball except a Pokeball and my Master Ball. This was like the 7th time I had tried. Then I used the Pokeball, and it. worked. -_-'

My WTF moment is when I see my Pokemon are too weak to beat the Elite Four. I have to use Action Replay to raise them up. I went through all 8 gym leaders before AR was whipped out.

EDIT: Yes. I cheat. DEAL WITH IT. I had a big problem, and I needed a shortcut.

I have a Pachirisu(sp?) that has the ability to pickup, but I didn't know that at the time. I randomly checked the stats of my pokemon and found that Pachirisu had an item and I knew I didn't put something on it. Taking the item I found that it was a hyper potion. I was shocked to say the least.

My offical moment of WTF was when I had to trade my Level 100 Gallade, Level 100 Arcanine, and Level 100 Empoleon with my friend to get her Regirock, Regice, and Registeel so I could wake up Regigigas in the Snowpoint Temple( Just above the Snowpoint City gym). I finally get to Regigigas after an hour of sliding on the ice. I saved then I woke up Regigigas. I was expecting a level 50 or 60, so I had my Level 70 Mismagius, Level 67 Beautifly and my Level 70 Roserade. I saw the level on the Regigigas and my jaw went -______-. It was a level 1 regigigas. I had to go back and get some level 2's and 3's to catch the thing. It is still in my PC box and this was about 2 or 3 months ago. I got my pokemon back and my friend hasn't let me live it down.

Exactly why can't relicanth not have his "footprints" read? I mean can't it move around and Mr. Footsteps tell me what he thinks of me? How can Mr. Footprints say we're close when he can't tell what its thinking of me.

I was going to level up 2 roselia so they would learn moves that would be bred onto a budew, so I went to the fight arena.
my rival's there
hew there! I'm going to talk to you to see what you say... battle? no, I'm not rea-
rival battle where my 2 highest leveled guys (luxray and infernape) were in the box. I had a staraptor and graveler around level 50 (uh-ok) and a pelliper and tentacruel (yes... 2 water types, 2 flying types) not leveled enough to beat him, yet I still won despite being about 10 levels lower w/o my best guys by switching to gain type advantage (what the...) and if that wasn't weird enough, I out sped them all and OHKO'd all their pokemon (though I did get 2-3 critical hits).
