Most Failed Moment in Competitive Battling

Ya I got one, but it was for the other guy, he had an electrode for the first guy, I had a blastoise, so I had to switch him out otherwise I was gonna get destroyed. So I pull out my haunter and his electrode used explosion....after he fainted it said "It doesnt affect haunter....." So that was pretty funny, he ended up killing himself for nothing.

Numerous amount of times when I forgot to change Hidden Power's type in the Team Builder. Apart from that, not much ^_^

well yesterday i was battling someone with a zoroark hidden as bronzong and it was using like nasty plot, flamethrower and dark pulse and crap, but i kept acting like it was no big deal, then i realized bronzong and flamethrower doesnt line up then remembered he had a zoroark lol, that and he was outspeeding rotom which was weird. Not paying attention and playing on the PS3 ftw. Probably not my worst momment, but it's a pretty good one

My worst would have to be entering a battle with my Gyarados only having 3 moves. You see I had to delete Waterfall so I could PokeTransfer it, but I forgot to re-teach it Waterfall... it's most important move...

Another terrible moment was when a hacker was using an entire Wonder Guard team. He had his Mewtwo out and I had Smeargle. Mewtwo used Shadow Ball. Smeargle used Spore. lol

Another is when Hydreigon uses Giga Impact on your Scizor :/

It was the first battle with my first UU team on PO, the opponents last pokemon was a snorlax so I go to send out my mostly special nidoking and when I sent it out I realized I only gave it 3 moves, the blank spot was supposed to be brick break. I only had special attackers left and the stupid thing beat me.

I forget about Air Balloons just about every time I battle competitively. It wrecks me.

It was a launcher battle. I had the battle won, my Ferrothorn had its opponent with barely any health and affected by leech seed. Leech seed would have killed it, so i decided to show my dominance and shift my Ferrothorn to the middle. So i did, for some reason, leech seed did not affect my foe. He then revived a hydreigon which killed me with flamethrower.

Water Absorb made it recover almost all the health :S
