lost my gold cartridge once, had to buy another one, but I did eventually find my original when we moved :P
oh my god! my account still exists in this kiddie pool? guess what! these mods you are all bowing down to? they're all kids themselves! I swear it's like a real adult working at burger world and bowing down to the acne faced dweeb that is doing his high school homework in his little office while yelling at you to clean out the grease trap! it's just a freaking game!!!! eventually you will all grow out of it!!! see you in the real world. I'm out!!!

I accidentally forgot the case that kept my Platinum version on a plane during a vacation. Now most of my legendaries are gone.

Have you ever lost a game? Not like won or lost, I mean like it went missing.
At times but usually I'm responsible for not losing or leaving behind items..
How unfortunate that you lost your platinum. I'm sure you can get the Legendaries again in HG/SS/B/W.

I lost my Pearl, which had hundreds of powerful Pokemon, many of which were taken from my Emerald. I bought a new one, but the work I put on it was incredible, and losing it was terrible. Fortunately, I figured out something could happen, and to avoid unexpected surprises, I cloned my Pokemon on Emerald before migrating them, as a backup measure. I still have them that way, but I lost many level 100 Sinnoh Pokemon that took me a long time to train.

I've had a couple of games go through the washer & dryer, my Diamond included. It's not really like I lost them because I still had the game thing in my hands but I really did lose them because everything on it was gone. :(
life is a journey on which we all must travel light.
we must remember to pack essentials, like values,
dreams, and faith.
we must bring no more than we need of self-confidence or pride.
there is not enough space for hurts, grudges, greed, or worries
for they will give us a heavy load.
we must plan where we want to go and how we'll get there
lest we lose our way.
we can walk slowly and carefully. sail through rough and smooth seas.
coast along the different highways or soar as far as our eyes can see.
for every journey, though, remember to bring enough soϲks
to keep your feet clean, while keeping them firmly on the ground.

I lost my Pearl cartridge in my own house. I think it might have fallen off my desk (I used to swap the cartridges out when I was trading online) and then gotten vacuumed :( darn tiny cartridges. I was really annoyed, too, when I realized I couldn't find it, it was my completed game with all my legendaries, a few shinies, and my collection of pokemon with the right natures.

I'm working my Diamond cartridge up to that point again, but still.

I lost my FireRed cartridge for about a year and found it not too long ago. I wasn't losing too much sleep over it because FR wasn't my favourite game, but it still bothered me that I lost something that I bought and paid for with my own money. D: I lost my old Crystal game, too; I still have no idea where it is. I don't think it was working anyway but it still would be nice to know its whereabouts. ;;

I lost my Pokemon Trading Card Game cartridge one day. I know exactly where the last place I saw it was. Funny thing is that the couch I lost it in moved and I dug through it many times, but never found the game.

Periodically, I might misplace another game in my room, but a quick clean-up will find it again. My games no longer leave my room, so there's no chance of them being completely lost again.

I never lost a game. I kept everything important (yes, I said Pokemon is important) where I can see them. I'm not really a type that carelessly lose things...

...except one time going home from work, when I was walking my Pokewalker. I kept it in my belt since when I put it in my pocket it doesn't record much step. It must have fallen, i searched for it but.. it must have fallen in the grass. It was really dark and my eyesight is really bad. I went home at midnight without finding it, and when I woke up in the morning, it... rained. MY POOR JIGGLYPUFF!!! T________________T

edit: this post made me depressed. It was brand new too...

I feel your pain. I lost my Pokemon Diamond that had a shiny Steelix (which was also my first shiny excluding the Red Gyrados and similar Pokemon) and other decent Pokemon, like all of the special Pokemon from the first two ranger games (two Manaphys, a Darkrai, a Riolu that knows Aura Sphere etc.) I miss my gold Steelix. :(

My sister lost my FireRed cartridge, but I bought a new(ish) one. I also almost lost Emerald the otehr day... to the washing machine :O (thankfully it survived, save data intact, although the clock battery has apparently run dry on it...)

I lost a Pokemon Ruby cartridge a few years ago. I'm absolutely certain that it's still in my house somewhere, but chances are, it's underneath a ton of junk that I haven't touched in a very long time. After I gave it up for lost, I never got around to looking for it because to do so, I might have to rearrange the entire house.

No matter how hard I try, I can't find my Crystal version ANYWHERE. I've been searching for years and it has never shown up. I must have forgot it somewhere because it isn't in my house.

I've never lost a Pokémon game. I'd be pretty sad to lose most of them, for sure, just because I paid for most of them myself... and regardless, I usually put a lot of time and effort into my games. But if I lost my Diamond cart (easily the game I've played the most, possible more than all the other games combined), I'd be devastated. :(


paired with professor plum.

I lost my Platinum and my Pearl. :x
My Pearl had like 4 boxes of shiny Pokemon and it is nowhere to be found. All the work and all the time I put into that game, poof.. just like that. Platinum I didn't care too much but it was still frustrating cause I only had it for maybe a couple weeks. I ended up buying a new Platinum and making sure to put it in the case every time to make sure I don't lose it. Pearl however cannot be replaced. All those sparklies can not be replaced. ;___; I've lost tonssss of my Pokemon games, like Sapphire, Emerald, Soul Silver, Diamond, ect and found them again later on. As you can tell, I have no organization skills. >//>
