    It's the glitch "a" that I had on my GB cartridge. I had a solid team of glitch Pokémon obtained via "Ditto Trick". I was a great glitch hunter with my cousin. One day while experimenting after being poisoned, we were being healed at the Pokémon Center. It showed Poke balls and glitch blocks all over the screen. The screen turned white, and without touching anything, we could hear the menu open and save the game by itself. After turning off the game, the file was corrupted. Curse you, A!

    Before those events, we enabled the Charizard M' glitch and beat the Elite Four and Champion. Even though we had glitch Pokémon, The Hall of Fame showed a Raichu in color!

    Going through mt moon without flash and coming out with a level 40 blastoise rofl.

    Good sir, you don't need FLASH to get through MT. MOON last time I checked. That is a cave that doesn't require that HM. Perhaps you're referring to DARK CAVE outside of LAVENDER TOWN? But still, dayuum!

    Meh, I'm thinking about 2 weeks ago. I had just beaten the game for like the bajillionth time, and then I go to turn it on the next day and the save is gone! I save a new save, and sure it loads just fine! I was going to import my Pokes into the original Silver.

    I caught a Metapod in the Viridian Forest. I thought that Harden would win me the battle. I used up the PP and was low on HP. I used struggle on his Geodude and Metapod fainted.

    I think everyone will agree on this one and that everyone's wtf moment is when ever you walk through a cave and Zubat pops up.

    my first moment of confusion came when i tried to get through the ghost tower on my cousin's save, and i never knew about the silph scope at the time, so i kept on struggling my way up to Marowak, only to always have to run.

    I once got my hitmonchan to transform into my pikachu once, when I battled a ditto once (or twice) when i cloned the metronome TM.
    my other startling moments were pretty much missingno related, cloning my first set of master balls, TMs, Rare Candies etc, but the most startling one was encountering pokemon that were overclocked on their levels... and were able to be caught too! i caught a Lv 242 Rapidash with 480someting HP.... only for it to level "up" to Level 100, throwing half its stats in the can! I don't consider it my first level 100 tho, at least not a normal one (that honor goes to my saphire starter, Blaziken)

    I was about... 9-ish when this happened on Red Version...

    I just taught my Charmeleon Rage. It was my first play-through. Of course, Rage back in the day went on continuously. All I remember was having my accuracy so low, every single Rage attack towards a trainer's Oddish missed. After 10+ minutes, Charmeleon died. All it did was Absorb me into oblivion.

    Needless to say, I also "learned" Rage right after.

    I agree. Seriously, Zubat and it's evolutions appear in every damn cave in every region (Besides the Pokemon ranger regions). When I played Pokemon when I was 8, I complained that every time I stepped into a cave, a stupid Zubat appears. Dx

    _____

    A while ago, after screwing around with my screwed English-translated Green Version, this was WTF worthy.

    I have no idea how the heck this happened, but it was funny to me at the time.

    Glitchy Chamander used Huffel Shoffel! (Something along those lines. And yes, my Chamander was glitchy after screwing around with it)


    `Espeon goes WTF!

    Yep, that how my game looks like. Whoever translated that failed epically. xD

    I think I remember now, I was trying to do the Dokokashira door glitch and used the glitched pokemon in battle. Then I commanded it to attack. It used Huffel Shoffle! xD

    @ Umbreon: I'm beginning to wonder if this might be a common glitch with Yellow...

    I still like a fan video I saw, of a Zubat randomly appearing, so the trainer get's his Gyarados to use Hyper Beam. He misses, and then he starts to destroy. Zubat uses berry and heals full. Trainer gets pizzed and pulls out an M-16.

    My very first WTF moment was probably seeing my Hall of Fame after using the Missingno glitch... man was that messed up. It had some freaky music and all.

    Besides the Missingno glitch?
    Threw a regular old Pokeball at Zapdos by accident, and caught it.
    HP was low, but it would have been in orange in today's color games.
    I was like.......AHHHHHYEUSSSSSSSSSS.

    Getting stuck between Blaine's gym and that stupid girl who walks in front of the door. >.<

    For the longest time I couldn't figure out how to get *in* to that stupid gym, the whole looking-at-statues thing to find switches to open barriers just didn't occur to me.
