Anything in Pokemon games you've regretted

[Marbi Z]

I never had A Pokemon trade I regretted doing mainly because I only used the GTS and those Pokemon were soley for collection purposes.

 

[ToeyJoey]

I think we all did

It stopped obeying me at Level 10 and so was not as useful against Falkner as I expected it to be.

 

[Escape Reality]

When I first started playing Crystal, my friend convinced me to trade him my Feraligatr for a Steelix. I regretted it deeply later. ;A;

 

[KabalowX]

i traded my level 86 SHINY Nidoking for a level 85 SHINY Steelix, only to find out it was caught at the pokemon leauge in a great ball at lv 85.the girl who traded it to me was my next door neighbor (this was b4 this file when i started out with totadile) and said to give it back.i got it back but 3 out of 4 of my boxes were turned into bad eggs, so i restarted. like that one person said, only trade if ur completely sure its legit... i miss my Nidoking :'(

 

[Typhlosionvsworld]

YAYNESS A HAPPY ENDING!! I'm so happy for you, might sound stupid but I really am

So, from what I read so far the golden rules of good trading are:

1) Never trade a legit shiny, unless you're 100% sure you're getting another legit shiny/legendary in return

2)Never, EVER, trade your starter, no matter what you might get in return: IF YOU HAVE A HART, YOU' LL REGRET IT.

how so very true
once i was trading with a friend
he saw my legit mewtwo (whcih i caught myself, thankyou very much) and offered infernape, his first poke'mon

then he said " Wait, what am I thinking!? Even for a mewtwo, infernape was my starter and i will never trade it!" I would never trade my SS typhlosion ( ia m working out a deal to trade his granddaughter) or my Pt Empoleon

 

[Rennon]

no one? really?
the in-game trade; a Medicham for a Haunter? Sweet! is what I thought.
only to find out it was holding an everstone.

That one got you too huh?
Anyway, I regretted trading my original Uxie for a hacked Manaphy. The Manaphy was hacked because it didn't say from "Pokemon Ranger" but I did get another Uxie on GTS with the Pokerus and it says Lake Acuity.

 

[jaxonferz]

I caught a shiny female whismur once but didn't want it (female exploud? Ugggggly)
I ended up trading it for a raikou... Thinking legendaries were just as valuable as shinies.... Oh how dumb was I. I shoulda just kept the whismur And not evolved her. I miss you...

 

[Draknir]

I regretted trading away my Palkia. It was my first one. Luckily, the person I traded it to agreed to trade it back for a Shining Palkia that I had cloned and now believe to be hacked. Not exactly fair, but hey. I got it back and that's all that matters to me.

 

[Zenotwapal]

I gave a away a perfectly fine and legit 10 Anniversary Celebi on the GTs for another legend.
That was probably hacked.

Atleast I still have a few of those sweet babies left.

 

[pokeaaron3]

Well I don't necessarily regret this trade but I trade spiritomb on the GTS and get some Celebis most of which are fake, although I think I got 2 legit ones. One from 10th Anniversary and a Japanese one that I think was from the Pokemon Colosseum Bonus Disk.
Also traded a lv1 charmander for a lv1 giratina from shinjo ruins on the GTS. Bet the person who traded it was disappointed.

 

[Flame Dragon]

I gave my first shiny (a Cascoon) to my cousin for a Blissey with only Egg Bomb (it had been an HM Slave on his Emerald, which he'd transferred to Pearl). Mind you, I didn't know about shinies at the time.



I was burned by that as well, and reacted something like this:

Me: "Free Gengar? Cool!" *Catches Medicham* *Trades Medicham* *No evolution*

Me: "What?!"

Girl: "Did it evolve? I'm kidding! I gave it an Everstone! Thanks for the Medicham!"

Me: "ARGH!"

I remember it too... I was so pissed...
That trainer was such a jerk...
Especially what she says after the trade...
I wanted to strangle her.

 

[StarvingLion]

The very first game I played, thought It'd be a good idea to restart blue and trade the squirtle to a friend then go back to my old game..... obviously it saved and I lost everything. Theres still a chip on the windowsil where I threw my gameboy in rage
...ahh nostalgia..

Since then I havent had any trades I regret... thankfully! Guess I leaned my lesson!

 

[Bronzong#1]

I remember my first trade a perfectly legit kyogre i had slaved to train to lvl 100 then traded for a hacked shiny deoxys lvl 50 it deleted half my boxes ever since then i have had an unnatural hate for them

 

[#Gecko#]

I remember (and regret) trading my EV trained, 712HP, Bold Blissey for a legendary in the GTS a long time ago. Sigh...

I mean I cloned it in Emerald version so I have the original, but it sucks knowing someone else has an exact version of Blissey as you or maybe not because I raised my to LV 100 later on.

 

[Green Blockhead]

Wait, so it's a problem that a traded Pokemon is holding an everstone?

 

[Miss Alexis]

when i was a lil kid, a bigger kid tricked me into trading all my legendaries for his level 100s

 

[lucario beast]

Wait, so it's a problem that a traded Pokemon is holding an everstone?

if trade a haunter it evoulves but since it was holdong an everstone it didt evoulve

 

[Kim62]

I remember I traded my Wigglytuff to my brother's friend when I was younger, I don't remember what for. It think it was a Pidgeotto or something. I miss my Wigglytuff

I also regret trading away something in my soulsilver but I forgot what.

 

[Dark Eevee]

I've never regretted a trade because I pay attention to what I'm doing.

[725roy]
