The weirdest thing that happened to me was that i couldn't KO a Bronzor with my Typhlosion in the Battle Tower. It had one HP left and it wasn't holding a Focus Sash or anything of those items!!!!

A few weeks ago (I think) I was training my Garchomp in Platinum. When I was about to save, the game froze, and marked error. Anyways, this has happened me once or twice, and it's maybe because my DS Lite is too old a_a

Yesterday, I was soft-reseting for a male Tirtouga with both an Impish Nature AND Sturdy. I did it for about a hour and EVERY single one was a male with a bad nature. When I finally got one with Impish nature, I was surprised that it also have the right ability, and it was the first female one I got. Really weird.

And although I wanted a male, since I had half a dozen names picked out for it (Crush, Bowser, Leonardo, etc.), I wasn't about to give up a perfectly good Pokemon especially because I needed to go to sleep since it was night-time AND BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY GENDER HAS NO EFFECT IN TERMS OF STATS.
 
Nothing particularly weird has happened to me, although one time while SRing my clock went backwards by a minute.
 
Just encountered Cryogonal. Caught it in the green "by" button-mashing(lol). Also, Ditto breaking out of a Critical Capture.(transformed into Hydreigon.) Same thing happened with a Deino.

It sounds like a lot of the people posting "weird" things in here have been hacking...

Honestly, I don't have anything too weird to report, but I have two friends who do.

1. Friend started SS and his FIRST POKEMON got the Pokerus before he was able to even catch another.

2. Another friend caught a Kyurem with a Pokeball. >> I wouldn't have believed him except I saw it for myself.
