So I restarted Platinum because I was not happy with my team and missed Empoleon. I decided to finally use a Starly since I never used it before (I dont normally like using pokemon that everyone uses). I decided I would catch bidoof after I trained up my starly a bit. I wanted to complete as much of my pokedex as possible, of course. Well I fight lots of starly and bidoof and decide to catch this lvl 4 bidoof for an HM slave in the early game. I catch it and didn't even notice. My team had become infected with pokerus (just a starly and piplup at the time) by this thing and I thought my game had glitched or something because all my pokemon had it the next time I checked their stats and moves. Prior to the bidoof no one had it and after my entire party and pc was infected. So glad pokerus is beneficial and not lethal. I just can't help but be amazed at my luck. Of course then again back in Gen III before I knew what a shiny was I did encounter and catch a golden Swablu at level 21 and I did get a calm nature Shiny Bulbasaur in 4 attempts. Gotta love lady luck when it comes to pokemon. Now if I just randomly decided to play the Mega Million :P
