New WTF moment; random Bird Keeper on Route 4.

Pokemon;
Pidgey - Level 13 (My Typhlosion is Level 67, wtf are you doing?)
Pidgeot - Level 44... Talk about favouritism!

AceOfSpades0707 June 26th, 2010 1:52 PM

I was Raikou hunting yesterday, happened across him 4 or 5 times, all using Mean Look, he Roar's as usual after like 6 or 7 Ultra Balls.

I find him again, don't do anything but chuck a Fast Ball. Caught it :)

Azure-Supernova June 26th, 2010 2:16 PM

Decided to try EV training for the first time, so I got my Chikorita and started tackling away at Hoothoots... low and behold afte 100 or so a Shiny one pops out... I go to throw a Pokéball only to realise... I haven't been shown how to yet *nerd rage*

Charizard Trainer64 June 26th, 2010 5:53 PM

My biggest wtf moment would probably be when I fought lance's gyarados with level 100s, I missed every time with fly and he got 10 crit non-boosted hits and fainted three pokemon. WTF!

This was obvious after listening to a few musical tunes with it (especially the Johto Wild Battle Theme). I was a bit upset.

It probably would've been quicker and easier just to port over the sound tracks too.

My wtf moment was also catching Ho-Oh, I stocked up on Ultra balls, I had about 40.
Got up to him, Had him paralysed and on very low HP then started chucking ultra balls at him. Nothing worked I finally ran out of ultra balls and had a great ball left so I threw it and it caught him....I definitely said WTF out loud

I was training my newly caught Pidgey at level 2 when i ran into a Hoppip at level 6.

I was doing well, as it only knew splash and syntesis and it used all 5 synthesis uses, and I was about to finish it off. It then used struggle... I guess I took too long and it ran out of PP for splash.

I died a little inside when I found that out by listening to the Pokemart theme. ;-;

Still not over it...

G-Virus June 27th, 2010 3:48 PM

Here's another obe that happened 15 minutes ago. I put up a Raikou for offer on the GTS (eh, didn't really use it and I don't like Raikou that much anyways) for Dusknoir. I got Duaknoir and I checked it's stats and jumped when I saw the initials "PKRS" next to it's name. I was extremely happy and started infecting all my other pokemon with it. Why is this a WTF? Because I was never expecting someone to trade me a Pokerus infected pokemon.

Azure-Supernova June 27th, 2010 3:53 PM

Just had another WTF moment second ago... before I get the masterball I see Raikou and Entei everywhere! Then I have it and I can't chase them down! I use it and then low and behold I start seeing them all over the place.... why?

(I managed to snag em with regular Pokéballs eventually)

xxChazxx June 28th, 2010 1:51 AM

I was giving a Haunter up for another Haunter on the GTS (evolution purposes). I checked back after a few hours and found that I had indeed received a Haunter! I was so happy, I couldn't wait for it to evolve.

I took it out, but it didn't evolve. I checked its summery and found that it was holding an Everstone...

I was like WTF!?!?!?!?!?! :pink_pissed:

Later I searched for a Haunter instead and found someone who was making the Haunter for Haunter trade. So I just traded the Everstone Haunter (Everstone removed, of course) and got a Gengar for my PokeDex!

hack1 June 28th, 2010 4:42 AM

1. My Weepiinbell outspeeded Ho-Oh and Sleep Powdered it. After 2 Ultra Balls it was caught.

2. Oak mentioned Rattata 3 times in Pokemon Talk O.o

Anyway,On SS, my Pychic type mono type team pretty much beasts.
But when I put them on PBR, all of the got 1-hit KOed by a chimchar.WOW. What?

I beg to differ.
I evolved a Feebas on my SS just fine.

JTrainer June 28th, 2010 6:09 PM

OK, get this. I'm EV training Rhyperior near Fuschia city, and a shiny Pidgeotto pops out. I switch to my Gardevoir so I could will-o-wisp it and catch it, and the dang thing uses whirlwind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was like AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!! A shiny and I didn't even have the opportunity to catch it!!!

Cilerba June 28th, 2010 6:12 PM

I caught two Natus. Female, and a male, and then I caught two smeargles, Female, and a male.
I saved the game, and then a minute after my DS freezes.
I load the game back up and apparently the save data didn't load T_T

Darkmoonazara June 28th, 2010 6:25 PM

I'll say WTH (h for heck) since i don't swear.

My moments seem to come frequently... Lyra/Ethan keeps calling and says her Marill evolved into Azumarill, so i go to her house to check it out... No azumarill... Just marill... unevolved... that liar!

Another one actually belongs to a friend's sister in a different game. They were facing a legendary pokemon and have no hack systems whatsoever. They use a regular pokeball. they don't press anything. It goes in and stays in.

A recent wth moment is with my togepi's metronome. Whenever I use it, it is usually some really rare, legendary attack, like Spacial rend, or Dark Void, but the most common is Trump Card.

redsaber5859 June 28th, 2010 6:29 PM

amberfunk June 28th, 2010 6:39 PM

Raith1090 June 28th, 2010 8:30 PM

lmfao thats an awesome equation

zommy08 June 28th, 2010 11:14 PM

I was helping my friend get the Blue Orb for Kyogre so we went north of Cherrygrove. He didn't have any repels, but then... Wild ENTEI appeared!

Weavile05 June 29th, 2010 5:08 PM

my lv. 17 Honchkrow defeated a level 44 Beedrill and if that wasn't enough, it only gained 2 levels, I was expecting a bit more considering the level difference.

yvette June 29th, 2010 5:48 PM

I was at the Dragon Den shrine place, and I talked to the elder, not knowing the correct answers for an ExtremeSpeed Dratini. So I go ahead and pick some random ones (love 'n peace 'n all that), go out and get the TM from Claire and go back. He gives me the Dratini, and I went "O CRAP I FORGOT TO SOFT-RESET FOR A FEMALE (breeding purposes)". The Dratini turned out to be female and an ExtremeSpeed one~~ hooray for random luck.

Another one, I was doing the Bug Catching Competition yesterday. The first Pokemon I encounter--Scyther. I got second place.

And an Everstone.

WTF POKEMON.

I was at the end of the Victory Road Tunnel leading to the Johto E4, and I realized that my rival was going to battle me at the end. Luckily, I saved before. Unfortunately for me, the first Pokemon old rival sent out was Magneton. I have a huge issue with Electric types, 'specially half Steel types like this one, because I don't have very good Rock types to combat 'em. Decided to use my level 33 Sudowoodo--KO'd the thing. I only won because Magneton didn't confuse my Sudowoodo, lol. In fact, that's how I won the entire match. Just KO after KO.

Second: caught Lugia with a Great Ball on my first try. Yay!

Weavile05 June 30th, 2010 7:49 AM

I was up late last night training my new team, I was going to do a bug catching competition (it was tuesday) but then I went to go sign up and it had passed midnight so it was now wednesday and I couldn't do bug catching competition anymore D:

Eryes June 30th, 2010 10:52 AM

For me it was trading my Pinsir in GTS for a Scyther, the only bug type pokemon that I want so badly. I checked back this morning and found that I had a successful trade. Then as I looked at it I realized I traded my American Pinsir for a Japanese Scyther. Then I realized that the Scyther was 2 lvls ahead of the pinsir so it wasn't that bad.
