Whenever you get beaten by normal trainers, you start to wonder "How the hell did this happen..."

It happened to me once, when a random trainer with a...Milotic, was it...completely swept my team in Ruby.

Apparently, level 42 is underleveled in Victory Road

That's what I was thinking when I went up to Wally with only a Skarmory with low health

And Vital Throw always Goes last but never misses right? Then how can it possibly go first, which has happened to me before. I suppose I can't complain, since I was the one using it, but still, how!?

FireRed, I used the PokeFlute to wake up a Snorlax. I had wasted 3 Ultra Balls on the other one, so I shrugged, and on a whim threw the Master Ball at it. Flash forward a few months. I'm deep in Cerulean Cave, fighting Mewtwo.

You get the idea. After a LONG time of that, I remembered there was this ball that was guaranteed to make a catch. Now what ball was that? Oh crap......

I was fighting this random trainer once, and I sent out my lvl 42 Aggron against his lvl 26 Shroomish. Nobody used stat changing moves or anything, but when Aggron used Dragon Claw the Shroomish was still alive. Sort of weird.......

OMG RYO. I got swept by that Milotic my first time through Sapphire. I was completely flabbergasted.

Also olih, Aggron has HORRIBLE special attack and in gen III, Dragon moves are special, so yeah. That's why Shroomish lived.

Im not sure if this is a WTF moment or just luck but when I usually battle Groudon I either KO it or use all my pokeballs. But one day I just decided to lob a regular pokeball.... and I caught it at full hp.... what are the odds? Anyways I think its pretty cool :D

Ever wondered if you could steal a shiny? Long ago in Leaf Green, I tried to use a catch trainer's pokemon AR code to catch the shiny Espeon in the Trainer Tower and it mysteriously turned into a bad egg. I think that those pokemon are somehow protected because this was the only time that ever happened when I used that cheat. Speaking of shinies, did you know that they can appear in XD when you are using a battle CD? I was so pissed off when I saw that Green Machamp because that was way back during the day before Pokesav even existed! I also saw a trainer use a shiny Horsea once in the Battle Frontier in Emerald. Yeah, I have really bad luck with shinies.

I am currently looking for a shiny Diglett in Pokemon Leafgreen. I met one on my first file, but I killed it. If memory serves me right it was purple-ish.... I saw that the sprite on other games isn't purple-ish, so I am trying to find it again to see if it's purple or not. After a while, while I was searching and simultaneously hatching Charmander eggs, I ran into...

A shiny Dugtrio. :D

Now she's a permanent part of my team. Still searching for that shiny Diglett, though...

Mine is probably when my then-boyfriend said he always found a skitty on the 13th wild pokemon found, so i left him to it, on #13 he didn't find one, then found one on #26 and just to top it off, was a shiny male skitty, was pretty happy with that one!!

I've had several low-level (between 3 and 8) Pokemon escape from an Ultra Ball. It's really annoying.

My WTF moment has to be Catching Rayquaza on the Sapphire version.

I was fighting it with my Skarmory. After bring its HP down to critical, I used the Ultra Ball on it, and the first one caught it! I never had that luck happen to me before facing it on Sapphire (I recorded the video of it as part of my Project).

You should've used an ultra ball. :L

I was randomly fishing in route 119 and I randomly found a Feebas.
I wan't even looking for Feebas.

Mine happened today - I had saved in front of Moltres in Leaf Green, accidentally killed it so turned it off... then, when I switched back on, nothing happened, I did this several times while freaking out cause nothing was happening.

Then, I took the cartridge out and reinserted it, and luckily it started up again and no progress was lost - that Moltres couldn't escape me THAT easily! :P

Similar to Pokemonleaguechamp, I got my Super Rod & I decided to fish for whatever reason it was I can't remember, & then I exclamation mark appeared, & the battle started. The battle was between a lvl 25 Gyarados (Oh, do I regret throw that PokeBall), anyways, I got its health to a point where I could possibly catch it, so I wasted all my Pokeballs & the last one was a Masterball, threw it, & caught.
Several weeks later, I learned that you could only get one Masterball per save & I wasted it on a lvl 25 Gyarados that I never used in battle..

Probably when I was hunting for a Shroomish in my Ruby, and I found a shiny Zigzagoon. Another was when I loaned my Ruby to my friend so he could help me fill my Pokedex and he restarted, not bothering to save said Zigzagoon.

I spent ages on my saphire, ruby and two emeralds searching for shiny pokemon, hoping to find a good one, and nothing came up. Then my friend gives me leaf green, so I start a new game, and the second pokemon I catch is a shiny rattata. After waiting for an awesome shiny, it was a rattata >_<

Fastforward through twenty minutes of gamepay time, and another one appears, I was so annoyed that I just killed the smug little thing :L
