    Well , I remember my , like 3rd run on Sapphire . I was in my room , watching a Pokemon film (very addicted back then) my 5 year old little sister gets the game . She didn't know any English , but she somehow reseted my Game , while I was about to Trade the Sceptile and Kyogre plus a Salamence from it to my Fire Red ....
    Yes , she restarts it , picks Torchic (she was watching the series sometimes with me , and she really liked May ) . And saves over it (how did she know to do that ?? )

    Man I got so furious , I almost kiled Her while shouting ' WHY DID YOU RESTART MY GAME??? ' She said she knew no English etc. etc.

    Well , post what were your most nervous momoents .

    Agh, trying to catch a lot of Chanseys for the Lucky Egg. Such a nightmare, I gave up on that endeavor pretty quickly.

    Probably when I tried to train a Dratini, it took me forever to get it from level 15 to level 25 and then I wasn't about to sit around and train it to level 55

    So I guess I just sorta gave up on it.

    I guess when I tried to catch Kyogre a million times in my Emerald Version,,,
    whenever I ran out of balls to catch it, i always say "ok you little scum fish, if you don't wanna be caught, then DIE!!!"

    I hope you immediatly reloaded your game after that. :S

    Umm.. probably accidentally forgetting to link over my Lv.100 Latios to my friend when I started a new game on my FireRed, then not noticing it until after I had saved. Ugh.

    Waiting on Regice's door to open was a pain. Glad they changed it for Emerald, but in Sapphire, I was bored, bored, bored.

    Trying to catch Articuno in LG. Took me like 60 ultra balls to do so and by then I felt like really giving up. :/ Even now it's still a pain to catch.


    Fighting Tate & Liza (?) using a Blaziken was also a pain as they always ended up killing it within a turn. :( Took me like 30 tries before I finally won.

    And the BF ended up being really annoying when I was so close to either finishing a facility or reaching a Frontier Brain; I was most mad when I was a floor away from battling Brandon before dying for some dumb reason. ;; I haven't gone that far since.


    And lastly Wallace's Milotic....

    Oh, there was many times.

    Trying to catch latios, I break my camecube w/ a gameboy player...

    I finally caught Latios, go to find Regirock. He's shiny (W00t) but I forgot to save before hand. I failed to catch him so I shut it off causing me to loose latios.

    I dont know how it happened but I had been playing around with emerald and XD, I ended up loosing the Latios I caught and SAVED, my level 97 gardevoir, my level 99 swampert, my Zapdos, my shiny Mighteyana, and my Ultra-1337 Shiny Bulbasaur. I was so pissed.
    They were all high level, so it was the party I had been using for most of my stuff. When transfering it to one of the games I F**** everything up... the entire party was lost QQ

    EDIT: One tiem I pissed my friend off sooo bad in LG. He transfered all his Pokemon to LG just so it would be easier to play, and I deleted everything in his PC/Party except for a level 2 Ratata... Then I saved.

    Exploring the Safari Zone. I forget who the common Pokemon was in these games, but running into the same thing every three steps is not fun.

    All the water. I was like, "Okay, my Electrode is already 10 levels higher than the rest of my team, do we need any more swimmers and triathletes?" Worst is the fact that I'm a completionist by nature, so I had to make sure to defeat the whole lot of them. And did I mention Tentacool?

    Wallace. Double Team. Made me wish I actually used the Shock Wave TM on someone.

    Once, When I was doing Elite four for like the first time and I had a sucky team. I had too many weak pokemon, however I was againts the champion and I didint have any PP on ANY of my pokemon, and I save right before fighting the Champion, so It took me a LONG time to get out of there -.-
