Your WTF moments?
 
I was looking for this thread, and apparently it didn't exist...
Anyways just post some random moment in Pokemon Black or White where you thought, "WTF?"

Mine was today. I was playing White, and when I got to Route 2, I found a Bulbasaur! I battled a few more. I couldn't catch them because it was a nuzlocke challenge. After a few Bulbasaur, the Missingo of this game (A question mark in a circle) started appearing! I was so confused... Probably a broken ROM, but not sure.

I was fighting Kyurem and he had KO'd 5 of my pokemon.
My last alive was my Tranquill.(hatooboo)
Kyurem was in red HP and I could have revived any of my pokemon to buy me time.
He could take me down.
I lobbed an ultra ball, knowing that if it missed I would die.
But I still caught Kyurem.

Tropical Sunlight February 21st, 2011 1:31 AM

When I caught a Virizion in an ordinary Poke Ball and it wasn't even a Critical Capture! XD

TheAppleFreak March 5th, 2011 10:41 AM

Well, since the games are being released here in the US... might as well ACTIVATE MY BUMPING POWERS

I was playing through Japanese White, and I was in the Battle Subway. I used Shell Blade on a Pokémon, and I had recoil damage inflicted on me. Wat.

Venomire March 5th, 2011 12:37 PM

TheAppleFreak used a Revive!
Venomire uses ANGRYRANT!

I have a really annoying WTF moment and I don't even have the game yet! I was going to get Pokemon Black from Tesco, who were selling it becuase I checked and I definitely did check, and my mother insisted on going to get it for me as a present. She gets home, and I have a direct transcript in my head:
Mu,: I'm home!
Me: Ah, brilliant. How was it?
Mum: Uh, fine thanks.
Me: Would you like a hand?
Mum: Ooh, yes please.
*Half an hour later, and all the shopping's away*
Me: So, where's the game?
Mum: Oh, I had a look and it wasn't there.
Me: WHAT!? did you LOOK in the games section!?
Mum: Oh, I didn't think of that...

Superjub March 5th, 2011 1:42 PM

Probably how often my Blitzle and Drilbur are fainting. >:O

Inferny March 5th, 2011 1:46 PM

I bought my copy of Black yesterday (It came out in Europe yesterday :3.) Now, this afternoon when I had just got through that what-was-it dead pokemon place by the Twisted tower. Almost at the top, just a step before the cutscene, when I get interupted by a fight. Goddamnit.

Aaaand then my WTF moment. 1 hour into my new game I meet a Shiny Litwick and catches it :D Got my first Shiny today!! And Chandeliur in shiny is really awesome so I can't wait to get it levelled.

Zayin March 5th, 2011 1:49 PM

I had a WTF moment when we have to climb in the ferris wheel with N. That was random.

Kon~ March 5th, 2011 4:22 PM

When I didn't know what Assist did, I had this happen (Marik is my Purrloin, BTW):

Marik used Assist.
Marik used Shock Wave!
It's super effective!
Wild Pidove fainted!

Me: o___O Holy poop Assist is amazing.

shinyabsol1 March 5th, 2011 9:14 PM

When I threw a pokeball at a wild shelmet and caught it with a critical capture...and had no idea what had just happened until I looked up new game mechanics...

pulpitar1 March 6th, 2011 12:19 AM

My WTF moment was when I got to the Daycare and there was little kids who couldn'tt be anymore than 5 years old and they have pokemon! I mean your character has to wait untill there 10 to get their first pokemon.

That made me go WTF too :L

My WTF moment was in the second gym when the bookcase pulled away to reveal a staircase. I had a bit of nostalgia for the Rocket Hideout in the shop at the Lake of Rage... :L

Nick March 6th, 2011 2:58 AM

I tweeted a lot of my WTF moments. Here they are.
  • Bros. You destroyed my room, and you just leave? Not cool.
  • "The X button is very important to trainers."
  • "If I use the town map, I'll always know where I am... That's certainly helpful."
  • We're off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz!
  • Poké Balls and Potions are the only thing you can buy, you just said you'd definitely buy those. And yet you don't know what you want? lmao.
  • Whoa, N. Slow down! We just met, and you wanna hear my Pokémon's voice? Don't you think you should meet it first?
  • Cheren, what do you think telling a complete stranger our goals like it's anybody's business?
  • "My husband and I are compatible..." Oh, how sweet! "Because he can not beat me in a battle." Oh...
  • A Dusk Ball given to me by a strange man behind a bunch of city houses? That sounds like New York.
  • Aww, that sucks. You can't go on the bed in this game. I used to always do that when I was going to go to sleep irl. Felt more real.
Not gonna describe them, since anyone who played the game would know. And I took a peak in this thread before I got the game and wished I wasn't so nosy, but whatever. Just wanna avoid throwing that many spoilers at people, since this list is pretty easy to follow for the people who played the game. Goes from getting our first Pokémon to reaching Striaton City, and then going back home.

I keep bumping into people and inanimate objects. It's frustrating.

Palkia March 6th, 2011 3:03 AM

My personal WTF moment as finding a grammatical mistake in the dress-up game. 'Is this look okay?' was dispalyed, which just makes no sence. Nice job translation guys.

j2y8n2x March 6th, 2011 3:39 AM

My WTF moment was after beating Elite 4, the level of the trainers' Pokemon suddenly raise to 60-something.

I was like "WHAT? I have no Pokemon to battle you!"

jammi567 March 6th, 2011 4:11 AM

Getting Pokerus for the first time ever.

WTF. Not that I'm complaining.

Futachimaru March 6th, 2011 9:40 AM

Well, I taught my Munna Sycnoize thinking oitwould hit other Pokemon....Then I finmd out it ONLY WORKS ON PYSCHIC TYPES!!! D= I had to go though two hours without attacking =(. WTF!

Zayin March 6th, 2011 11:42 AM

I just remembered that participating to the Pokemon musical was another WTF moment. I mean, what the heck is that?! XD

Raichupacabra March 6th, 2011 11:55 AM

My WTF moment was when my team kept getting swept by Patrats, Purrloins, and Lillipups in the first gym.

OMG WTF
The wild Pokemon in the beginning only give like 15-25 EXP.

And Audinos are hard to find in the beginning with no repels.

I also hate how you can't go on a chair. :\

Anyway, Skyarrow bridge. :< Yes, Game Freak, you can use camera angles, but how they were used on Skyarrow bridge was a little bit excessive (e.g.: showing it above your character, to zoom in along-side him/her, only to go back above him/her after a few more steps. Seriosuly, Game Freak? :|

Opposite Day March 6th, 2011 1:08 PM

My WTF moment was probably when I saw the connection between Slowbro and Zekrom. Like two minutes ago.

You're reading it as though it should say "does this look okay", where "look" is a verb, but in the sentence in the game, "look" is a noun, like "what a great new look!" or something. So it's asking "is this look [as in, outfit] okay?"

My WTF moment was how long it took to be able to check my pokemon's nature after picking it. Boy, that is going to be a huge pain in future runs. I got a modest Oshawott, could be worse I guess.

adhdguitar March 6th, 2011 3:49 PM

When I first saw Palpitoad, I freaked out. It looks like it's gonna rape you. D:

Also, I was a little creeped out when N gets in the Ferris Wheel with you, as I was playing on the Japanese version, and didn't know what the context of it was.

Everyone Esplode Noaw March 6th, 2011 4:25 PM

Docile. Oshawott.

'Nuff said.

That's not a grammatical error. It's saying "this look" as in "This look is so last year" or something. xD

Anyway, my wtf moments are:

-After the first battle, my room was all trashed and there's footprints everywhere. Wtf? All the Pokémon did was tackle each other nonstop xD
-When we were about to learn how to catch Pokémon, that one girl (forgot her name) said, "This is so exciting! I wonder what will happen!" I'm like wtf, we barely walked into route 1 and you think something big will happen?
-The video calls are creepy. They don't move, they just blink o_o
-When the mom calls me on the video chat, I got distracted for a few seconds. I look back at my game, the video call is over, and the mom is standing right in front of me. Is she stalking me?

Barn March 6th, 2011 6:34 PM

Lenora wipes through the 5 Pokémon on my team, and then I pull out the Sawk that I JUST caught, and it OHKOs both her Herdier AND Watchog.

Did I just spend all that time training for nothing? I guess I did. xD

Quicksand. March 6th, 2011 6:55 PM

that creepy man behind the building that gives you a dusk ball was pretty WTF worthy. :/ XD

Dillon_68 March 6th, 2011 6:56 PM

I spent an hour searching for a Venipede to find that it was INSIDE the Pinwheel Forest. -_-

Margot March 6th, 2011 6:59 PM

Thanks for messing up my room guys, and then LEAVING IT. I wanted to clean it so bad XD;

also, the fact that you had to sit through the tour of the ~pokemon center, pc, mart, and how to catch a pokrmon~ weren't we able to skip in previous games? or assumed we could figure this stuff out? it was so annoying.

the fact that you have best friends that stalk you everywhere.
I like training on my own D:

why, why, do preschoolers have pokemon?! don't you have to be at least ten years-old before you're allowed to get one? my pride hurt when a preschooler almost beat my pansear

that's it so far~

Weavile05 March 6th, 2011 7:25 PM

I lost the first battle.... Stupid critical hit tackles.

musesum626 March 6th, 2011 7:48 PM

Finding a Blitzle in Route 3; I didn't think you could get them that early in the game! :D

A negative equally WTF moment was finding out that Quick Attack is now weaker than Tackle...

Zelda March 7th, 2011 3:41 AM

Having a Purrloin avoid all my attacks. It must have been about more than ten rounds before I could actually get a move to hit it. D; I've been having a lot of bad moments with this cat

Kon~ March 7th, 2011 3:53 AM

My Liepard always manages to get Assist to use a super-effective move when I really need it.

Like, against some guy's Panpour, I kept spamming assist, I got Light Screen, Pursuit, Leer... then, when I was down to 2HP, I thought "That's it, then. >.<" and pressed Assist one last time...

Quick Claw got in a first hit and Assist picked up Shock Wave.

WTF.

Awesome.

skyluigi2 March 7th, 2011 9:36 AM

My Boldore was battling a Minccino.
Here's what happened:

Boldore is fast asleep.
Minccino used (fury swipes or whatever it is.)
*Knocks about 2 health off*
It's not very effective...
Minccino was hurt by the Rocky Helmet! (It was hurt more than it hurt Boldore xD)

This happened four times, it might have been five, but Minccino fainted before that xD

Same here, except it was a random trainer's Emolga spamming double team.

Yeah when he said he was king of team plasma, I laughed and thought ur joking right.. seriously.. by this point in the game u beat him like 3 times.. lmao

X Latios March 7th, 2011 11:44 AM

Proving the B&W's AI still has room for improvement I was battling Cheren I only had my Servine left who had around 18hp and he just sent out his Pignite, one fire move would have finished me off. He used Defence Curl every turn and I took him down with a few Mega Drains...

avolonsaber March 7th, 2011 11:57 AM

When I got to the first Gym and Cilan's Pansage swept my team like 3 times because of Work Up/Vine Whip. My level 13 Pansear even knew Incinerate, but it hardly did anything.

Zvezda March 7th, 2011 12:31 PM

Catching Victini in a Pokeball.
That shady guy behind a building who gives you a Dusk Ball.
The Ferris Wheel ride with N.

Raichu1988 March 7th, 2011 12:33 PM

The second gym leader fight. I had a fighting pokemon for the occassion of normal types so I used Sawk. I KO'ed her first pokemon easily. Then, her second kept using Hypnosis and then killing all my pokemon with Retaliate. She knocked out my level 18 Sawk, level 18 Servine, level 15 Lillipup, level 17 Panpour, and level 15 Audino. Audino got her pokemons health down to a small margin but all I had left was a level 10 Munna. Well, her pokemon attacked munna and munna attacked but there was little damage dealt since it was much weaker, this went on until munna had 2 hp and I thought for sure munna would faint next turn. Her pokemon missed and munna ko'ed it. I was really WTF since Sawk's fighting moves couldn't kill that pokemon for some reason but Munna did. o.O Every time the health went low she used potion or then it ate a berry.

Yukimi March 7th, 2011 1:19 PM

The ferris wheel ride with N was absolutely pointless. Definitely a WTF moment.

Kon~ March 7th, 2011 2:03 PM

Marik used Assist!
Marik used Fly!

WTF FLYING LIEPARD

Gragh. Assist never fails to WTF me.

Gulpin March 7th, 2011 2:24 PM

Only finding Gem's when searching for Drilbur d.d

Spiky-Eared Pichu March 7th, 2011 2:30 PM

My WTF moment was when I walked into the Electric Rock Cave for the first time. I walked like 30 steps and a Joltik appeared. The point of this? IT WAS SHINY.

Heliotrope March 7th, 2011 2:37 PM

Hypnosis. When the computer uses it, it will hit you EVERY time.

No kidding.

"Hey man. Those people you're after? Oh yeah, I'm the leader. Just thought I'd let you know while we're alone."

Natester March 7th, 2011 4:44 PM

My WTF moment is when I caught Victini in a net ball and it was my only netball. Granted, it was at 1 hp and asleep but still, really unexpected.

Burzes March 7th, 2011 5:09 PM

I was battling Lenora for the 3rd time trying to win. Right after I KO'd her Herdier, I switched to my Dewott and her Watchog died a whole lot quicker. It didn't even use Retaliate.

GlitchCity March 7th, 2011 5:49 PM

I flipped out when I found out that you cannot have the L=A option. My face was all like >:|

And I also freaked out when I only had 6 boxes in the PC. Who knew you would miss the basic stuff?

Burzes March 7th, 2011 6:01 PM

Yeah, and how are you supposed to capture all the pokemon when you only have a little less than 150 box slots?

MichaelDj54 March 7th, 2011 6:17 PM

I think my main WTF moment came when I realize that everyone in this region is overwhelmingly generous. I don't think I've been given a free Pokemon (My Pansear), in...ever.

Livewire March 7th, 2011 6:41 PM

Not much of a WTF moment, but in the beginning against Cheren and Bianca my Snivy wiped both of them them out with 3 Crits without even being touched. Such a beast. o3o

Once you catch more Pokémon, you gain more box slots, ending up with 24 boxes if you catch a lot of Pokémon.

Heather March 7th, 2011 7:30 PM

Mine was this morning when my Pokemon was poisoned during a battle and I didn't heal it. So afterwards I was walking around and there was no shaky screen, or lowering HP. Happy day!

DrPhil March 7th, 2011 8:32 PM

when i learned poke transfer needs 2 Ds's...... -_- ...............

Dr Caterpie March 7th, 2011 8:39 PM

The fact that we face the Villan's leader on the first encounter, which broke the tradition.

Burzes March 7th, 2011 8:50 PM

I was battling a Scraggy I think.. it used Double Slap and my Dewott got hit 3 times instead of 2.

spike6958 March 7th, 2011 9:04 PM

My WTF moment is this post, seriously how could you not realize that you would need two DS consoles to do this transfer. You Pokemon are on one cart and the region you want to send them to is on another, how where you expecting them to get there?

My other WTF moment wasn't so much mine as it was my Mrs, she was trying to catch a Sandile for about an hour, she kept making them faint by accident and she kept getting more and more frustrated. But what annoyed her the most though was that in that time, I beat the 3rd gym, captured a Sandile AND a Scraggy and was almost finished with route 4, eventually she did manage to catch one, and from the look in her eyes if she hadn't caught it she would have attacked me XD.

adhdguitar March 7th, 2011 9:21 PM

Just forgot, I did have a huge WTF moment. (But a good one.)

When N drove his whole freaking castle into the Elite Four's place, I was astounded.

Eurydice March 7th, 2011 10:30 PM

my wtf moment was today when i went to the pokemon center and the lady there was like is today your birthday? happy birthday.
i know its not all that great but i wasnt expecting it

BonzaiMudkip March 8th, 2011 1:53 AM

I've had a couple already

- my starter losing my first battle against bianca (stupid critical hits)
- basicly every critical hit my opponent lands on me
- My gym battle with Elesa. Her emolgas were annoying as hell. Also my scraggy taking out elesa's zebstrika in 1 hit, it had full HP while scraggy only had a half HP left. Every single one of my pokemon were out except scraggy.(thanks to those emolgas and zebstrika) I knew it couldn't take another hit, but to my surprise, it lands a critical hit and removes all of its health.
-any pokemon i encounter who has an intimidating appearance (druddigon being one of them)

Dominus Temporis March 8th, 2011 6:05 AM

Seasoned Pokemon fan that I am (plus being slightly loopy enough to have a pretty massive suspension of disbelief), not much surprises me about the games anymore. I did have one huge moment though... whenever Juniper calls you, why does she stand in that pose?? It looks so awkward to have her with her hand on her forehead like that...

Toasty.Toast March 8th, 2011 6:13 AM

My wtf moment? Me and my friends got the 5th gen games last night. We choose all three starters, and they all have a careful nature. so random...

インフェルノの津波 March 8th, 2011 6:15 AM

More like a surprise moment, I caught Tynamo pretty fast in Chargestone Cave, though it appears on the bottom floor only 8% of the time.

A real one would have to be almost slaughtered by Charles. He's pretty hard to beat, had to actually use revives in this game.

Nateon March 8th, 2011 6:52 AM

One of mine was before i got white i said i will keep resetting until i get a female tsutarja/snivy, start the game and instantly get a female with modest nature, was pretty pleased with that while like WAH? Now she's a level 60 Jalorda/Serperior and has 2 more attack stat points than special, which kind've defies all of the nature...
Was also very GRRRR and WTF about the Sasanzadora/Hydra dragon thing you battle last in the main story line, kept wiping out everything i had and used about 23 revives to finally get through it, then coming out and carrying on to new places to discover i was now around 20 levels lower than everyone i came across!!

I know, everyone and their dog seems be giving one thing or another.

Also that house in Iricius (?) City with the Quiz Show Family. I expected to get some pointless trivia or an item, but no. I walk in the door and:
"WELCOME! Our next contestant is... THIS GUY!" (Or something to that effect)
I was just sitting there thinking "...What... the hell?" with almost this exact expression: O_o

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire March 8th, 2011 7:24 AM

I had one when I first got my starter only it was more a FTW than a WTF, my Snivy was Female and I didn't even try to get a female, she's cute and reminds me a lot of Ash's Snivy even nature wise...

Cyb3r0t4ku March 8th, 2011 9:33 AM

My inability to get Pokerus or a shiny Pokemon.

Early on it seems you get very little exp and take a lot of damage from enemies - many a WTF moments trying to pick yourself up from a brawl with a Patrat or other such basic Pokemon and losing -_-.

Kww37 March 8th, 2011 9:46 AM

My first WTF moment was when I learned TMs could be used over and over again. That will come in handy.
Second WTF moment was how fast you could get the two pokemon from fossils.
Third WTF moment was around every entrance to a cave or building there is a house that will always have someone to rest your pokemon for you.
Last WTF was the annoyance of Emolga and Double Team....

skyluigi2 March 8th, 2011 10:27 AM

When battling Elesa, all she did was spam Volt Switch. Really. Even when it was her last Pokemon, she still used it. 0_o

-Totodile42

TurkeyCoctail March 8th, 2011 12:49 PM

Myself, I was shocked by the fact you could use TMs as many times as you want! That's cool, it'll make the game much more pleasant. ^.^
Also, when watching Patrats appear over and over again, my firt thought was "Oh how I miss Rattatas!" X3 (It's not like I hate all 5th gen Pokemon, I just don't like Patrats. Rattatas were cooler. And cuter.)

wingman11 March 8th, 2011 2:05 PM

My WTF moment: The Pokémon Musicals. What the hell is that? Dress up, then watch pointless dancing around. I thought it'd be at least somewhat entertaining. Oh well. I got to dress up my Scraggy like a gangsta-gentleman.

Also, getting Archen and seeing its ability. Halves its stats at half HP? Really, Nintendo? Screw that.

And one last thing. Though it's not a WTF moment, can you believe Bianca's personality? Or Cheren's? They're the kinds of people I can't stand: an air-headed girly girl and a know-it-all-I'm-always-right/self-righteous jerk. GRRRRRRR.

Volroc March 10th, 2011 6:36 AM

I was trying to catch Volcarona, i had it paralyzed and in the Red, i through a Net ball i get my first critical capture and it FAILS, 3seconds later i throw another Net Ball and i get ANOTHER critical capture& it succeeds, i fell to the floor laughin, that had to be fate, how often can you get double critical captures in 1battle XD

My other WTF moments are catching Victini took me 46balls for the lil rat to finally get in, but i go to N's castle and it takes me 3balls to catch Zekrom -_-" worst of it is Victini was only at 1health, & Zekrom was still in the Yellow...

and when i got to face the champion i set up with Quiver Dance on Volcarona thinkin im gonna die might as well leave as large a mark as i can,but instead i swept his whole team aside without taking a single hit (not countin the hits i took setting up)

I find problems with your post, well beyond Musicals, I agree they suck.

1. Archen and Archeops would've been extremely broken without Defeatist. And only Attack/Sp. Attack is halved.

2. You must have limited perception of the world, I've met plenty of Cherens and Biancas in the world. Though they aren't obvious about it, they have the same traits. It's more common than you think, actually.

Nothing like yours but my "wtf" moment was during one of my first wild pokemon battles. My starter fainted after one apparently all-powerful tackle from a Lillipup.

He didn't say that he's never met anyone like that, just that he didn't like them. o-o; "They're the kinds of people I can't stand", not "They don't exist in real life".

My other WTF moments are catching Victini took me 46balls for the lil rat to finally get in, but i go to N's castle and it takes me 3balls to catch Zekrom -_-" worst of it is Victini was only at 1health, & Zekrom was still in the Yellow...

and when i got to face the champion i set up with Quiver Dance on Volcarona thinkin im gonna die might as well leave as large a mark as i can,but instead i swept his whole team aside without taking a single hit (not countin the hits i took setting up)

To be fair, I just found out Zekrom/Reshiram's catch rate is pretty high for a legendary, while Victini's is set at the usual low rate. Something to do with having to catch them to progress the storyline or something...

My latest WTF was when I was crossing Tubeline Bridge. I didn't even notice that it was Ghetsis stood up ahead and nearly had a heart attack when SUDDENLY NINJAS popped up out of the bridge to bring me to him. D:

Ho-Oh March 10th, 2011 8:10 AM

When I realised about 4 parts of Unova were in previous dreams I've had in my life, just not pixelated o_O

The Red HP theme. It just randomly appeared earlier and I scared myself. XD Also the fact that I swear N completely lost a Pokemon.

pmwilkins March 10th, 2011 8:14 AM

My graphical moment was going across the first big bridge. WHHHAAAAAAA!?!?!?!

Then when I was catching something or another my pokeball paused right before the capture, wiggled once, and BAM! caught. Critical catches? OH YEA!!!

Jaiyke March 10th, 2011 8:27 AM

I was fighting Lenora... and I thought I had given Arsea(My Tranquill) an Oran berry
I was battling her Herdier and when my HP went down to half I was like WTF? why didn't she heeeeeaaaal? DDx
but on that turn I downed Herdier and used Roost
and while battling Watchog it used Hypnosis twice but failed and I had it down to half by then
on the third Hypnosis it put me to sleep and I was liek "OH NOOO D;" but then it woke up
What I had given it was a Chesto Berry :| so then I Air Cutted which Critical'd and Quick Attacked .__. I deafeated her with my Bird xDD JUST A BIRD! took me 2 times in my Japanese run >.>

If you're going to complain about grammatical errors, PLEASE don't spell sense and was wrong.

you never played Yellow apparently


ALSO, my WTF moment was when I beat the entire E4 with a level 51 Haxorus 0_o talk about Hax

Heliotrope March 10th, 2011 11:35 AM

Just fought Skyla and EVERY attack in that battle was a critical hit. Heart Stamp, Air Slash, Quick Attack, everything. Although every Rock Slide my Excadrill used crit too soooo... I'm not really complaining, haha.

Not to mention, that's not a mistake. 'Look' is a noun in that sentence, not a verb. It's saying "Is this style okay?" just with a different word.

Dreadnought March 10th, 2011 11:40 AM

For me it was after I beat the elite 4 and N. While heading to new places unlocked like White Forest I found the trainers had like lvl 64+ pokemon while my team was barely mid 50's after beating N.

It makes me sad that the game possesses the ability Download and didn't give it to Haxorus. ):

Seriously?
I had assumed Victini's was much higher than normal, seeing as the event and ability to use said event were so early on and it being only level 15. It only took a couple of Great Balls and 5 or 6 Pokéballs for me to catch it XD

Makes me wonder how quickly I'll catch Reshiram...

Yeah, Reshiram and Zekrom have catch rate 45, while Victini is just 3.

Work that out. o__O

your welcome mate, happy to help :)

my next WTF moment is i spent 3hours the other night trying to catch a modest Kyurem, the first 2attempts i catch it on the 1st&3rd dusk ball, but got a bold& adamant nature (he doesnt get any good physical ice moves so it was a waste) but then it took methe next 3hours to stop either my Volcarona from killin it accidently, it killin itself using endeavor (flame body ability -_-") or me blowing threw 24dusks balls& forced to use pokeballs lol on the final attempt i got a nature not even worth remembering,but i gave up lol
my WTF after that is i go to catch victini on my new file and it took me only bout 10pokeballs, but on my last fire it literally took me 46balls of assorted kinds -_-" seriously WTF! but i am happy i got a Timid nature on it <3
my last WTF is im training Victini,& it gets owned by a wild trubbish, god that pissed me off, but made me laugh, victory pokemon my ass, it dies the most out of all my current team members unless u count archen, but we all know it has no defenses lol(servine,excadrill,archen,&victini)

SAME HERE :<

I trained in the grass next to the white forest so now all my Pokemon are at lv. 63-64 but I decided to go back to the first town and go through every route to battle trainers I couldn't get to before (with surf) those trainers so far have Pokemon in the mid-30s... wtf. I don't like battling such low leveled Pokemon either. Rarr

Herrzer Brechlich March 11th, 2011 8:14 AM

In Castelia City, I found two old men facing each other, one saying simply 'Smirk', the other saying 'Ehehehe'.
Just a little odd, if you ask me... :surprised:

@World March 11th, 2011 8:23 AM

I just found out about the Hiker that appears during summer at the Ferris Wheel for the boy character.
I just hope the changed it for the EU release.... Creepy...

What's creepy about the Hiker...?

@World March 11th, 2011 8:28 AM

Well in the Japanese versions the ferris wheel characters are considered dates. After you beat him you go on a date, during which he comments how hot it is and about your sweaty body, that you both sweat and then asks you if you had a lover....
That's creepy in my book. :S

Also that house in Iricius (?) City with the Quiz Show Family. I expected to get some pointless trivia or an item, but no. I walk in the door and:
"WELCOME! Our next contestant is... THIS GUY!" (Or something to that effect)
I was just sitting there thinking "...What... the hell?" with almost this exact expression: O_o

This :P:P

The way N is waiting outside Skyla's gym after you defeat her. Creep. :P
Also the guy who leaps out from behind the skips in Castelia city.
The ninjas who appear in the electric cave [still really bad with names ATM n_n] scared the crap out of me :L
N and the Ferris Wheel [who ISN'T weirded it out by that :L]
Wandering around the Desert resort, thinking what am I doing here exactly? :L
Sky Arrow Bridge = my jaw just DROPPED o.O

Christopher March 11th, 2011 11:28 AM

Catching Thundurus in 1 quick ball.
and I was battling a trainer on route 13 I think anyway she sends out her level 65 Buneary, which promptly uses healing Wish WTF?

インフェルノの津波 March 11th, 2011 11:34 AM

When I captured a Modest Deino, I swear I was crying. Those things aren't common.

And my lastest is how easy the Single Train is, I hope Super Single is better.

Sabrewulf238 March 11th, 2011 11:47 AM

A preschooler at the Soccer pitch had a lv 64 Mime jr.

O.O

He must have been having pokemon battles since he was in the womb.

Not just that but the levels of the post game trainers has me cowering in fear. It's going to be a long and painful process getting my pokemon strong enough to beat them easily. (As it stands now I can usually beat a trainer but not before it's knocked out one or two of my pokemon) Fortunately the high levels are sort of compensated by the fact that many of the trainers have basic stage pokemon, while mine are all fully evolved.
