Times When You Wanted To Break Your GBA Out of Nerves...
 
^Read Title^

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 .

When i found out i couldn't find all the HMs.I was like "ffs, it's great its a long game, but does it have to be an epic quest for each HM??", especially the ones in Fuchsia City

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

ShinyGiratina October 11th, 2009 11:58 AM

Trying to catch a legendary bird without using a Masterball.

Destinyfate October 11th, 2009 12:02 PM

The Worst time for me when was it took me a week to find the Ruby in Mt.Ember

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.

Lord_Sesshoumaru October 11th, 2009 9:42 PM

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!!!"

Sasuke. October 12th, 2009 7:05 AM

Oh easy.
Hunting around for those damn rocket passwords to get into there base on like 5 island?
And getting those damn Regi in R/S/E -_-;

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.

Sydian October 12th, 2009 12:58 PM

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

Meepman October 12th, 2009 1:16 PM

Probably the first time I took on the E4 in ruby.

Caelus October 12th, 2009 1:50 PM

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....

Rai-chan October 12th, 2009 2:04 PM

Migrated my Sceptile to my Diamond verison... then forgot to save T__T the first time I have ever done that too

The Original Darkwiz787 October 12th, 2009 2:28 PM

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.

StriK.eR October 12th, 2009 9:10 PM

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 -.-

Niprop October 12th, 2009 10:36 PM

Come on, come on, save, save...

*Power Out*


DARNNN IT!
I just beat the Elite 4 too!

Aberbecam October 12th, 2009 10:52 PM

I couldn't catch Mewtwo on Fire Red when i was like 9 years old so i slammed the GBA on the floor and it broke into pieces. xD

w00t ! If I did tHAT my parents would have KILLED me ! They said I must be respionsible w/ my GBA and all that BoringStuff....

EvilMudkip October 18th, 2009 12:56 AM

I don't really remember having any nervous breakdowns or stuff, but I get very nervous when fighting Wallace... I start sweating and after a while, shaking, and when I win, I start running around the house.

And Niprop, I know how it feels. Once, when that happened to me after like 15 tries, I started sweating, and you might say it was pretty loud. My parents wouldn't let me play for a while cuz they thought the game makes me aggressive XD

This must have SUCKED.

I get really, really aggravated when I run out of repel in any cave and I'm only halfway through it. I don't like random encounters to begin with, but the encounter rate in sapphire makes it even worse.

AcidNight October 20th, 2009 1:48 PM

When Gary Oak or whoever appeared right after you defeated the gim leader and knocked you out.
I'd rage.

Umbrachu October 20th, 2009 9:08 PM

It was taking forever to catch Articuno. I had been at it for a long time and for several sessions (saving in front of Articuno, trying with all my ultra balls and restarting from my save point when something went wrong) Well, I got super upset at my 5th try at that when all of Artucuno's PP ran out and it killed itself with struggle. I banged my GBA on a table and the screen cracked. Oops. My mom refused to buy me a new one so I did yard work for my neighbors until I could afford a new one. :/

And there's the time when I was out of pokeballs but thought I had one left to use on a Diglett. Turned out it was my Master Ball. I started from my last save point but lost hours of work. D:

Armykid October 22nd, 2009 3:40 PM
