2nd Gen Your Moment in the GB games that you that you thought your game was broken.

[Brendonwii]

Mine would be when i rested the game and all the sprites of ever pokemon/trainers was like a misingno or and M turned it off came back 5 mins later worked fine. (this was on pokemon red)

 

[Thorazine Corazon]

First time I played red I was a dumb little kid and my super-cool-awesome Pidgy I just caught got poisoned. The screen did the poison thing it always does when you walk around in the overworld while poisoned and I was like 'Mooooom! My game is broken!!!!' then I healed it and felt like an idiot.

Other than that, my crystal deleted itself and stopped saving for a month then miraculously started again. I figure there was something loose or something, I dunno.

 

[aкισ]

Same thing, Poison thing..
Where the game screen does that weird thing..
I thought "OMG!!!!"
But then it healed and i waz liek "Wow" .
XD

 

[GengarNightmare]

Yup, the poison thing.

I thought the batteries were low so I replaced them. XD It still kept flashing, and I didn't figure it out until my Charmander "randomly" fainted.

Lol @ 10 year olds.

 

[Sydian]

Poison thing, like everyone else. Also, the first time I heard Screech. I thought I was going to die.

 

[mondays suck]

When i met a glitch trainer (Blaine i think) in Pokemon Blue while trying to multiply my items via the Missingno Glitch. The game froze during the battle. I restarted and my savefile was gone. I was really thinking i broke the game by running into a glitch trainer, i thought it had a virus from now...

 

[mahamaniac3]

In silver when this trainer used confusion, it made my QUILAVA back sprite wobble and made a funny noise!

I then realised it's an attack lol :)

 

[RivalGator]

I turned on my Crystal version once, and it said 'New Game' and 'Options'. I panicked, turned it off and back on, and my save file came back, and it never gave me that problem again until the internal clock died.

 

[TheNameLess]

I oftenly got a message *in colour?* This game is only for game boy colour please do not try to put this game into a normal gameboy.

also I traded a freligator called w!?!?!!?!!?!!?!!!!!!!???!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!

and my game froze everytime I saw it... So I finally released it because although it was lvl 100 I thought it was pretty annoying

 

[Brendonwii]

For some reason that poison thing never happened to me (and i was 6)
Also when i was 10 i got pokemon green and i traded a level 47 pegoet for a machoke (cause you it envoles into mew) then my game glitched so i started a new game and it works fine.com

 

[560cool.]

xD
Doing MissingNo. without knowing how . So I shouted "Pal , your GB is brooken !" -> It was my friend's Red and GB (we were 5...) and he came and rested and he didn't save almostt at all... He got so nervous ;_;

 

[CRaTeR]

I was six. I got poisoned.
I thought the batteries were running low. I changed them. It still flashed. I changed them again and it still flashed. Scared me out of my mind.

 

[Lord_Sesshoumaru]

That poison thing!!!!
I was playing with my Yellow Version, I forgot who got poisoned at that time but while I was walking, the screen flashed and I said to my brother:"What's going on? Is the game broken?!" And he said:"Maybe you moved the cartriged!" So, it tooked out the cartridge and put it back and the screen still flashed...!I was completely freaked out and almost cried there...!

 

[c3rad]

Mine was probably when I heard Pikachu's thundershock for the first time.

I was looking at the TV and I thought my game had frozen or something.

I also had the poison experience too, that seriously freaked me out.

 

[HomicideCrunkMan]

When I heard Missingno.'s cry

 

[Xebelleon]

Blue Version:: I actually did that Missingno thing without knowing it was the Missingno thing. Only it was Safari Zone Pokemon on the shore I was getting attacked by. Oh hi, Chansey. Understood the Missingno thing by looking on the net.

Gold Version:: When I heard the Lake of Rage and Unown radio settings for the first times.

 

[Pichu_fan]

When at the start of my yellow when I shunk.I was like 'WHAT!?'

 

[yaminokaitou]

When a kid on the bus ripped out my red from the gameboy because I wouldn't let him play it. I turned it on and my game was all messed up and I freaked out.

 

[vulveeshrew11]

oh my gosh, that poison thing happened to me too, of course! it seems like everyone has that happen to them when they first get poisoned. xP

also, one time i was playing my cousin's illegal/hacked copy of either red or blue (i don't remember) and for a minute, all of the people looked like me! all their little sprites were the same as the hero. i panicked, thinking i had broken my cousin's game (which i didn't realize was a hacked version) and i shut off the game. when he turned it back on, everything was fine and i was relieved
