Ev training a few pokemon and saying to myself, "I'll save later...". I dropped my DS and it froze and I ended up wasting 1 hour of my life.
 
SR for a shiny zekrom... that was 5 hours well wasted -.-

lololol~

Recently happen with me, in a Competitive battle: My Azumarill Vs Gastrodon (without Gastrodon switch-in)

Azumarill, Aqua Jet! Gastrodon's ability activated, and I got serious trobles...

Repeatedly using shadow ball on the 4th Elite in D/P/Pt's Girafarig. I was watching telly so didn't notice that it said 'does not affect Girafarig' -.-
 

Bulletproof

Self explanatory.

That Girafarig is the reason one of the Pokemon on my team usually carries crunch. On the bright side, at least it wasn't a baton passing Girafarig.

Yeah, I actually did that recently. I wasn't paying attention to my game so I used a Ghost move then when I looked back, I was like "Damn, I forgot it's half normal".

Bested the whole pearl E4 + Cynthia with my Gyarados... except for Mr. Mime, Vespiquen took it down.

And then I transferred her to White... and she took down Cynthia 2 times again.

This morning i accidently added my woobat(used for HM fly); as my third member for super singles. Didn't realize until the 7th match, which is probably an even bigger fail. and i lost as i was expecting to wall some pokemon with evoilite dusclops, but instead i got crappy woobat. most stats around the 50 mark. Gets OHKO'd. this added to me repertoire of 7th match losses.

Feel your pain. Back in Yellow (my first game) I used mine on an Onix.

Eleven year-old logic: when pokeballs repeatedly fail, glare at your gameboy, then waste your only masterball while shouting 'there Onix! That bloody showed you, didn't it!! Hahah- oh, wait'.

-__-; God I was a n00b.

Um... Hate to break it to you, but stone edge is a tm. Why level it up?
Also, there is something called MORE! More Pp ups! You get one every time you beat a subway master. And in a sports dome, after beating a specific trainer, you get a Pp max.

My fail... getting walled by Steven in sapphire. My Kyogre, his Cradily. Finally got freeze hax. After so long. That was the days when ingame trainers had infinite Pp until u used spite. Even with pressure. Either that or I had another glitchy game.

Ps to the person who claims the Larvesta- think again. I don't care if you guys refuse me because I claim for fun, not seriously. But at least someone else likes Larvesta.
