Have you made any of these mistakes? Tell me about mistakes you made when you first started Pokemon!
I did the hm moves i thought i was the best lol
Saw a shiny zigzagoon in my Omega Ruby and thought it was a glitch so I turned of my game 😭
The Polish Eagle lol I did the same back on Diamond
CGZ etgohomie yeah until you realized you couldn’t delete them lol
I forget to save a lot
I used my masterball on a Ditto, cause I thought Ditto was a legendary pokemon.
Well, I guess it can be seeing as how it can transform into one.
@Selim Monir Lapras though... Idk because even I know what a legendary Pokemon was at 5 years old. I'm still wondering why people keep saying Rotom is a legendary Pokemon when it's not (besides that legend music played during the encounter such was actually am error)
But Mew is fail project and turn into Ditto
*sad trombone*
Ditto should be s legendary considering it was made the with mews dna trying to make mewtwo and We all know mewtwo is legendary so Why shouldnt ditto be one too
Professor elm:y-you are a bit late like 8 hours late
Poketip:yeah sorry I couldn't um find the stairs..
Poketip:*gets stuck in room for 8 hours
me after 8 hours in Ultra Sun: FINALY i spent 5 minutes catching a resharam with a pokeball to add to my box of legendarys
I taught my gyrados whirlpool
@@maxthetiel4601 weirdly enough when I first played white I solo runned it with a stoutland and I remember it had pickup with a sticky Barb anyways it had all normal type moves and I never beat shauntal
@@dorothybelrose9167
Dont Stoutlands have the ability to hit Ghost types with Normal types?
@@userwithoutausername2021 back then I didn't have odor sleuth to hit them because I didn't know status moves and such were useful
My first shiny was Abra in Pokemon diamond, and seeing that odd colour I simply threw a pokeball and caught it, later realising that it is a very rare Pokemon🥳
Well that’s very lucky
Considering abra just keeps teleporting
I did the same thing with a voltorb cuz it looked wierd and I later found out about shinies
I found a shiny feebas, I accidentally killed it. GEN 3 BTW
@@SnomalWHY WOULD YOU NOT BE CAREFUL AROUND FEEBAS (man i haven't even found a single one in emerald lol)
Ok the previous comment was a lie. Idk why, 5 months ago me thought that was a good idea, but my ACTUAL
First shiny was in Ultra Shiny Gold Sigma. When I got the pokeballs to catch a pokemon, the first spinirak I saw was a shiny. I kept it through the whole game
I caught my first shiny and I remember thinking "Huh thats a funky looking Klink"
Did u catch it?
@@CrystalMantis6224 hohoho!
*no*
"HOLY SHIT A SHINY BUIZEL"
MY FIRST SHINY WAS ON A ROM HACK GAME
You forgot 1 mistake.
Trusting the anime and sending an el. type against ground types.
I tried to cut a balloon Pokemon (don't know the English name) with razor leaf. It made sense to me but grass isn't that good against flying-types
Or trusting the anime and sending an experienced pre evolved tiny little fire type like Cyndaquil against a giant demon cow with ground type moves, like Whitney's Miltank. Anyone remember that episode? Ash was so stupid and he refused to send back little Cyndaquil and thought he could actually do it XD
I mean "Inexperienced" pre evolved tiny little fire type
Matthias S cut is normal type ( sad noise
Onix's a rock snake natural enemy is an electric mouse!
My bro was playing ORAS and his first find was a shiny zigzagoon. He was so amazed by the coloring and thought it was a special thing you get at the beginning. He caught it, I’m so proud
See thats exactly what i would be thinking if i had no idea what shinys were
OH COOL its a diffrent color lets catch it!
My sister make the same
My friend encountered a shiny psyduck, thought it was bad, and killed it. Then, he realized it was a super bad mistake a month later.
Psyduck Is a savage lol
My first ever shiny was a ponyta in diamond, me being 9, i killed it for XP, never thought about it again.
Then i came across a shiny illumise in pokemon ruby, me having to completely forget about shiny ponyta i decided to catch it and look online why was it orange. once i found out what it was i instantly remembered shiny ponyta and i felt horrible, but amazed about this whole new thing. i thought i probably would not see another shiny in my playthrough, turns out i was wrong, found a shiny nuzleaf 3 days later.
its been 7 years later and im still trying to find that shiny ponyta.
My most embarrassing mistake when I first started playing 20+ years ago was thinking that the glitch animation that happens out of battle when your Pokémon is poisoned meant your game was broken. I reset probably 5-6 times before I realized that hey no maybe my game isn't busted 🤦♂️🤣
Lmaoo I played pokemon sapphire on an old Nintendo DS and I thought this animation was the screen glitching so me as a child would hit the screen to fix it 🤣
I did that as well! I had only played the newer games and I was confused!
loooool
Same. When my Rattata (I think) got poisoned by a Weedle, I rushed to the Poke Center while the screen was glitching. When it started to glitch, I tought ''Oh no. Did i glitched the game?'' Until a message (Idk) appeared when i was near the nurser. So i healed. When my other pokémon got poisoned by something (I think it was Weedle again) I tought. ''Nah, Just a mean that my pokémon is poisoned.''
SAME. And this happened to me until about…10 hours ago
I have an idea where the "mashing A" came from. On the original games, if you entered the casino to gamble, and tapped A to the beat of the music, you almost guaranteed a win every since time. If you don't believe me, try it yourself on yellow, red or blue. The idea of tapping a certain sequence to "win" was probably engrained in people from this experience.
Not true, the results in the casino are determined when you start to play no matter when you tap
No, it is true, I could easily win 10-20x in a row before missing one, then keep going. Might only work on the particular Gameboy I was on due to clock freq, but it was a thing. I think the "music" was just a coincidence. I just tested it as I was typing this, and it is correct..@@tsmblindzo3033
Best use of Master Ball in two words:
Shiny Abra
And the Latios
You mean Shiny Alakazam
Nah, shiny Geodude knowing the only move explosion or self destruct.

*remembers the electrode in SmallAnt’s shiny only challenge*
Haha true
Lmao I just watched that vid
Yeah
Or the "diseased" buizel in his no hit platinum challenge
my poke balls run out and only options is running away
When I was around 10, I had just got Emerald and got to the part where you have to save Professor Birch from the wild Zigzagoon in the beginning of the game. It was a shiny. Definitely a devastating moment in my life knowing I couldn’t prevent it’s inevitable fate.
On me and my brother's FireRed game, he caught a Seel with a masterball, but I also caught a shiny Golbat later on. Still have that shiny Crowbat on my team, and gotta say, the pink looks way better than the green.
I waited for half an hour to get out of the bed in pokemon moon, then I moved the joy stick and I woke up. I was disappointed in myself
Thanks man, I will remember smashing the right button or else I would never wake up

@@magukkun You: forgets how to do it and does the same thing
I will be added this beginner mistake:
Only lvling up your starter pokemon
I did that not just you dude
There are basicly Animations on Pokémon gold with typlosion lv 100 and the rest are like lv12 pigdey
i did that when i was younger in pokemon black and i was never able to get past Cheren because my starter was my only high level pokemon
it went from being a mistake to being a clickbait title on youtube lmao
I did it, it wasnt a mistake
I had a version of pokemon Gold where my starter pokemon and the first two pokemon in the wild were shinies. Back in the day I did not know about shinies. I restarted the game and the same thing happened. Such incredible luck. However I thought the game was glitched so I went back to the store and traded the game for Silver...
That absolutely did not happen, the chances for that are stupid.
Maybe it was actually broken
That kinda hurts... Man...
Lol the first points about moves was so true to me as a kid. Now replaying as an adult it’s like hey when megapod hardens it actually is harder to kill. Then my mind exploded and realized I can make awesome strategies. Just a basic tail whip before a hyper fang for a one shot kill just makes the game more satisfying to play.
Ha, I've never ran from a shiny pokemon when I was a kid!
*Because I never encountered any* 😥
Hello darkness my old friend
I never catch a shiny pokemon too
I caught a shiny seedot lol
What really made me mad is that i found a shiny articuno and i tried to catch it untill i ran out of ultra balls and i had to kill it
@@kyuremblack6260 Where was your Masterball?
Some people: stay stuck in the room for hours
Me: gets stuck walking around because I didn’t read the dialogue
Thats me
Yup me two
I am shocked how did he miss this. It is easily one of the top 4 most common mistakes everyone makes. Even highly experienced players.
Taht was me
same
During one run of Pokémon Diamond, I just got my starter and bought some Poké Balls. I went into the tall grass and encountered a shiny Bidoof. At the time, I had no idea what shinies were or their rarity. Since I always classified Bidoof as an HM mule, I thought, "Why do I want a Bidoof? I already got one with all the HM moves I need." So, I ran away from it. Years later, after learning about shinies, I realized my grave mistake.
OOOOOOOOO
I still remember my first shiny. It was a cottenee and I didn’t even know it was a shiny at the time since I wasn’t paying much attention. Luckily I did catch it for my Pokédex, and I’m super happy i caught it and later evolved it
When I was younger I tried to catch a gym leaders Pokemon repeatedly not knowing that you can't catch it.
Even though they explicitly say "Don't be a thief"? :v
Rashid Rumman that flew by my little head lmao
@@Stagzy lol same but then i was like GO TO HELL POKEMON!!!
you also cannot catch any trainer's Pokemon too bro LOL
Me too
Been playing pokemon for over 9 years and I still never use status moves that don’t inflict a condition.
I only use them against mons with bide like when I first got Pokemon diamond and battled a kricketune.
Mah there arent many good moves, sword/-dragon dance are the only one i would think about
Less years (since 2013-2012) same enless im doing some compettitive battling.
yeah I wouldnt use it too if I would just play against the NPC but sinve I started fighting with my friends its rly a must do if you want to win
Mina ya same i teached my greninja all hms
Not quite mashing A but in gen 1 if you hold B and press the dpad in a certain sequence there's a 100% catch rate
I always thought you had to do the gyms in the exact order specified on the trading card. So for Gold I’d always go Chuck, Jasmine, then Pryce.
Then after beating the Elite Four I went to Kanto and struggled immensely to find Brock not knowing he’s one of the last gym leaders you’re expected to fight. I accidentally started the fight against Koga’s daughter and thought I broke the game so I restarted my save file.
Before: Can't get out of his room in Pokémon Gold
After: Now, Walking through the void, doing insane glitches and catching legendaries like it's nothing!

I used to think that if you “released” a pokemon they would be able to walk with you and stand around like the NPCs’ pokemons. Man was I wrong.😅
Yeah Me too
I released my starter charmander
@marianne mccrank it works for pokemon let go
I thought I would be able to find it again I. The wild
oof
Bruh that happens to me too I did that with my chimchar on the beginning of diamond
I guess the only mistake I made from this list was only using attacking moves in RBY, but to be honest, you don't really need status or buffs to play the story mode.
A few years later when GS were released I made a friend who was into competitive battles and he explained to me his strategies, some of them involving only one damaging move and three setup moves, or 2 and 2, or no damaging moves at all (like using Confuse Ray, Sand Attack, Safeguard, etc). He was extremely annoying to battle but always fun and I learned tons from him
I still use only attacking moves (although I learned to only use special moves on Pokemon with higher special attack and vice versa, as well as to diversify my movesets). And I'm proud.
I am preety sure I only started with evasion moves like sand attack and double team that too because of Lt Surge, his double teams made me realize what was happening
and there was focus energy because its easy to see critical hits do more damage so they were the equivalent of swords dance for me
even than it was likely not until I played pokemon showdown that I learned so thats what those moves do
I convinced my brother to use his master ball because I was skeptical if the masterball was *actually* catching without fail. He did it, and ended up having to catch dialga with a dusk stone.
My biggest mistake: When I couldnt understand English well I didnt know there was a save button so I started 5 milion times over
Wow , reading this reminds me of the old games where u can't save and all u can do is restart everytime.
Must have been bad , but also good as you *Caught* the starter Pokémon many times .
Friends : now I have 120 Pokémon in my pc !
Me : I have 1 but I caught it millions of times

You never played Pokèmon Crystal? The game gives you a free Shiny garudos.
The one thing I remember from when I first played Red was fighting and fainting pokemon and not understanding why I didn't have it now. It took me until I got the PokeBalls to realize that I needed to do that.
This was gen 1 though, and I'd only seen the anime (where he always caught the wild pokemon he defeated), so I had no idea how the game was supposed to work.
My brother found a shiny golden Poochyena in Pokemon Emerald back in the days. It was the one in the scripted fight where he had to save Prof. Birch all the way in the beginning of the game, so he had no balls to throw at it and he couldn't flee. The game literally made him kill that shiny.
It's better to reset
My mistake: Giving all the experience to the starter Pokemon only
I got Pokémon sword recently and it’s my first Pokémon game so I did this and now I have a level 100 cinderace and everybody else is level 30
Sanskaar Sharma and this is my mistake:NONE
Relatable i put it all on my tottodile
Same...
I've played like all the games except red, black and white 2 and I still do this. I realise I'm doing it, it's just hard to get out of the habit.
As I found my first shiny in my first Pokémon game, I thought: "Just a weak Lv. 8 thing... but it's sparkling and it's colour is different... I'll catch it." As I found out about shinys I was so happy that I caught it.
Lucky you
Same story for me
@@daltongerardy9635 and me
You are so lucky
Same
The "forgot to save" happened to me once and I lost my Zygarde. I remember going on panic mode and tried to catch it again but this time the ultra balls I had weren't enough. Thank goodness I saved the game before trying to catch it so I went back to the saving point and tried to catch it again. I got it and immediately saved afterwards lmao
I used to have my charizard have 4 fire type moves but when I saw that bite, crunch and metal claw had better dmg I started switching to them

Here's a big mistake I made when I was new to Pokemon: playing like Ash in the anime. Here's a tip: don't use your starter for literally everything, and type advantages do, in fact, matter. There's a reason Ash took twenty years to become a Pokemon master.

Never got stuck in the starting room in Pokémon, but I did have a similar issue in my first playthrough of Wind Waker, where I couldn't figure out which house was supposed to be Grandma's at the very start of the game. I'd been in there and then out again several times, not paying attention to the ladder I was expected to climb to meet her. I legit spent 2hrs running around the damn island 😭
Instead of mashing the A button, I held Down and B for luck. I still do instinctively.
What's weirder is when I heard about this "rumor", I was told to use Up instead of Down when using a Great Ball.
The game: The gym leader will come back soon...
Me as a kid: Imma wait now.

My team never uses it tho. Even until now. Everything consist of STAB and Type Coverage. Is that bad?
Syahmuda Anafi it’s only bad if you take those habits with you in competitive gaming.
@@KareemShotta Well I even couldn't play competitive because I played the older versions
My strat is actually to normally use only damaging moves, but there are some great nondamaging ones out there.
I remember in FireRed I didn't like using items that weren't healing items, which honestly could be a lot worse when playing Pokemon, but I sold every other item that wasn't a healing item or TM(fun fact, I didn't even know TMs could be sold)

Similar to your Pokémon Gold story - My cousin and I both got our Blue versions at our Christmas Eve party and immediately started playing. When my sprite left the house, I headed straight out of Pallet town and kept getting confused/frustrated as to why Oak was somewhere off-screen telling me I couldn’t leave. My cousin was playing through the game just fine, and when I asked him what he did, he told me I just had to go upwards to leave town. I think he just assumed I’d already gone to the lab and gotten my Pokémon, which in reality I had no idea I had to do and the game wasn’t giving me any type of instruction on that, so I was just stuck 😂 We kept arguing back and forth for a minute before we finally figured out what I did wrong.
Yeah, not a good start to my Pokemon journey 🤣
I used to hold my breath when catching a Pokemon. It actually surprisingly worked. I would try to just breathe normally and about 90% of the time the Pokemon would bust out of the ball.
"Our next beginner mistake is never using non-damaging moves"
yeah about that...
*i have been playing pokemon for 7 years and i still dont use them*
20 years. And still no non-damaging moves.
Im trying to start using them... and failing

Teaching Pokémon moves of the same type - no
Mashing the a button - no
Thinking non damaging moves were useless- no

2. Most Definetly
3. For the most part, still do! Cause I play the meta and I'll care about are the defending moves, toxic, and the hazards. Swords dance on some
Stat drops, thunder wave and anything else I used are USELESS
I used my Master Ball on a Lycanroc (Night) in Pokémon Moon, only to regret that when I got to Tapu Bulu I could NOT catch it with the current Poke balls I had at that time. I also had liked Lycanroc as a pokémon when I was playing, so that's why. I had only used the Master Ball on box art legendaries since then.
I closed my ds but didn’t notice that it needed charging and forgot to save!! From beginning of the game to 7th gym, so started all over again. HEARTGOLD version.

I know this is an old vid but it seems like the right place to put this, games nowadays have felt such lackluster and there hasn't been alot of the same magic there used to be when you start up the game. Recently I've been picking up the remakes of the pokemon games on the 3ds and the switch and its reignited my passion for gaming again.

Raven Phillips I kind of hate you
Well... in a world with all these crazy monsters... makes sense that there could be some in varying colors... as a kid that is logical.. plus some games DO have many colors for various things... like a blue slime is water, red is fire, etc.
When i 6 years old, i meet shaymin i thought it was a common pokemon so i run :
I...I

I never ran from a shiny. But my first shiny encounter ever was a shiny Noctowl in Pokémon Gold.
I didn't even know what a shiny was. I just knew that a Golden Noctowl was unusual, so I tried to catch it. Unfortunately it fled 😭
Poketips: Using your Master Ball on something silly.
Me: That one time where I used my Master Ball on a Spheal.

Seems sometging happen but it does not i think it relief us from the thought of not catching it lol
Same XD
Old habits never die. I use my r and l for that
I sometimes press all of the buttons at the same time
Im very surprised you never mentioned how beginners usually just train up their starter and no other pokemon, I was a big offender of that back then
My first game of Pokemon, I ended up doing that. I ended up learning it when my Pokemon got walled so hard
My younger sis isn't a gamer but she'd play Pokemon with me. She'd beat the elite 4 and I was only halfway through the badges. While I stopped to train my team she just blasted through the entire game with only her starter.
I still do that, then proceed to faceroll the game.
I did this for like 10 years dude!
I still do that when playing through older games. But then I use my starter to train my other pokemon by switching out.
(Edited for extra details)
I used my first ever master ball on… a lunatone. I was just struggling to catch it and had never seen that Pokémon before, so I thought it was rare and… yeah. When I realised I couldn’t just get another master ball in the story, I released the lunatone thinking I’d get the ball back. This was Black 2 (my first ever Pokémon game) and I was like… I dunno, 8? I later one-shotted all three Swords of Justice with my partner because my party was SUPER over leveled and I didn’t know what moves were weaker than others. I didn’t even know moves had stats other that some moves never miss. Also, I didn’t use stat changing moves at all cause they “didn’t do anything”. My party was my partner and basically the first five Pokémon of different species I caught, I only changed it early in the game when I caught a Pokémon that looked cool (a Riolu, which is still in fact one of my fav Pokémon).
I remember after I learned how good setup moves are I thought my Garchomp swords dance and completely set it up in the start of the Cynthia champion battle and literally destroyed her team with a Garchomp who had set up 5 swords dances😄
I clicked the like button and it turned blue so I restarted

That would probably be my Pikachus moveset if I had one
I once started fishing first time i had a super rod first try feebas thought it was the regions version of magikarp and ran away
I ran away from a shiny in Crystal ... it was 3rd pokemon i encountered and you had no pokeballs on the 1st route ... I knew what happened, rip shiny pidgey
Beginner: Used Master ball on some common Pokémon...
Pro: Never use the Master ball...
@@nimon503 That's too bad... 😰
Real master: use it on your favourite on lvl10
Gotta get that Shinx
111 like ;)
When I was 7 I used a master ball on an exacute
I was an idiot..
My mum got stuck in the starting house
In sword and shield...
Noob
Wait your parents play games?
LOL
lol
LOL
My first Pokémon game was Pokémon Sun. No, I didn't spend 8 hours trying to find the exit to my starting house but I got a hang of controlling my character really quickly. I made most of these mistakes when I was beginning my adventure, and I feel really silly doing these but not that much now that I'm not alone.
Edit: One time I kept my game on while I slept so I didn't need to save. I was worried it would die so I kept it charging. I also used my master ball on Solgaleo.
Pokemon shield: couldn’t find the door
Pokemon X: Knew about shinys but now Pokemon shield don’t know what’s shiny what’s not.
I made a Shiny mistake. I saw a Shiny Hoppip in Heartgold. I saw Hoppip first time amd I thought it is the normal colur of hoppip and I ran away. Then I saw another hoppip and it was red. I thought it is shiny and I catched it. Then I learned first one was Shiny I cried.
Me to 😭
My friend did this with shiny magikarp and gyrados
Aww that suck
S
I encountered a shiny umbreon in sun and moon same this for you happened to me i didn't play pokemon for 1 year
"Mashing A does not increase your chances at ca--"
We're just gonna ignore that
Me too
Holding A and B simultaneously gang.
I believe that in one of the old Pokemon stadium/trounament games it actually did increase because of a coding glitch that if you clicked A at a particular moment it recognized it as like a catch command. And also didn't Gamefreak like once post some "tips" game magazine that said that help your chances, but it was meant to be more of a reason to interact rather than a legitimate strategy.
Yeah you have to mash B
@@ivanlo3071 No it is A mashing only that works
I used Master Ball on every legendary because I glitched my master balls to 100 in Scarlet/Violet 3.0.0 thanks to Smeargle.
Gotta pay respects for the Smeargle and Ditto.
I thought I was the only one who got stuck my house in Pokemon Silver! It was my first Pokemon game, though not my first video game, and whilst I got past my room, I couldn't figure out how to leave the house itself for hours. Don't remember how I figured it out, but I do remember the moment of joy at finally getting somewhere.
I still press ‘A’ repeatedly when I catch a Pokémon I want. I’m 30 lol
I still find myself holding the A button down at times. Picked it up from some random dude as a kid and stuck with it
And somehow it works.... Its just works 😂😂😂
My first game was Platinum, and I spent an unhealthy amount of time in the casino. After noticing that lining up the Pokéball would help you win coins I figured the same must be true for catching, so I would try to press A right as the pokeball shook to increase my chances. I still do sometimes since it was a habit for around four years
Noob. Everyone knows you press a+b+start+select to increase chances of catching.
Now I can see why you do so many walking through walls/running through voids glitches.
It must’ve been all of that built up frustration from not being able to leave your player’s room for 8 hours lol.
lmao
I had the issue of movement in my first gen 6 game. It had been years since I played and had to have someone teach me how to use the controls on the 3DS so you're not alone.
This guy! ahahahaha I made that exact gold mistake... except worse... when i finally found the door, i had no idea to stop holding up, i kept going in and out the room without knowing how to move! Your description of first game wows... yeh, that exact moment we shared!
Imagine being stuck in the starting room for 8 hours and still enjoying it
Oh wow that’s funny and in real life it would be sad lol!
@@italyball4034 ikr I couldn't do it I would hate the game after 8 minutes yet alone 8 hours
It really is good
@@italyball4034 so true
Wtf i was 6 where i startet play Pokemon on the Gameboy and i instanly saw that that was stairs in the corner lol
When I was a kid I didn't understand any move that didn't do any damage.
That's my dad even today
Now, as an adult, I realize how buffing moves can get ridiculous. In gen three, the flying type gym leader had an altaria that she buffed with one move repeatedly, then swept entire teams with single attacks on each member.
Controlling a character for the first time and getting stuck at one place finding evey lil things to intract still feels awesome bro❤
I remember getting my first shiny a starter treecko then i forgot to save. Good times
I still remember being stuck in New Bark Town because as a kid I strictly heeded the warnings about the tall grass--
...In other words I was an absolute coward.
LOL WHAT
That's actually adorable
+Matthew Morales
Look I was a dumbass who had no idea how the game wo r ke d--
I feel you. During my middle school days, I loved the video game for the movie "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown" (in German they translated/localized it as "Ice Age - Jetzt taut's!", meaning "Ice Age: Now it melts!"). When I reached the caves with prehistoric spiders, I didn't progress for days, because I was too scared of those spiders!
Would do that as a little kid 2
When i was a kid, I remember playing my brother's copy of Ruby version and encountering a shiny whismur. I went to tell him I found a "Glitch pokemon" cuz i had no idea what shiny pokemon were and he yanked the gba out of my hands hella quick to catch it. He caught it luckily because i was scared attacking it would corrupt the game or something
Haha that just made my day
The way I see it, you did the right thing.
You’re not embarrassing you didn’t know anything about Pokémon then but now you know how to hack it. That’s amazing.
Most kids: Don't use status moves.
9 year old me: I'm gonna put some dirt in your eye.
When I was seven I encountered a shiny bagon in my emerald game
And seven year old me was smart and knew those stars that apeared meant something special
Renegade Art my first shiny was a shiny golbat. I wasn’t sure what it was and kinda thought it was a glitch but I still caught it
My first shiny was a rayquaza thought it was a glitch but it looked cool so I captured it but luckily I caught it lol
Happy stories here
Never legitimately caught a shiny. Either got it by trading or pokemon go
My first shiny was suicune in leaf green. I encountered it and because it wasn't in the first 151 pokemon in the pokedex, i thought that it runned from a trainer. Plus it had the stars when you battle it while the others didn't had it. Thus, thinking it belonged to someone else, i run😂
When I fight a legendary I save before the fight so I can go exit the game and then fight it again if I killed it or ran out of pokeballs
Almost everyone does it.
Same
I ran on a Shiny Latios
all my pokemons were like level 35 and i fighted articuno and just couldn't catch it i wasted 10 ultra balls and 50 normal pokeballs and couldn't catch im so I killed it and i just said to myself he is a legendary so he will come back and he didn't I shit myself like i screamed like samara punched myself and alot of bad things then I remembered that i saved the game before fighting articuno so i lower articuno's life and waste all my pokeballs AGAIN then I run away and I prayed that articuno stayed there but he flew away that was the day that i experienced a heart atack so i leave the cave criying then i come back to get the other items and i see articuno there then I felt like a mom seeying their baby for the first time and criying so I left the cave and said im gonna come back when im stronger and have stats changing moves.
Lesson of the day: dont be soopid like me
That's big brain
when people say TM moves or HM moves its really weird because TM stands for "Technical Move" and HM stands for "Hidden Move"
so if you say TM move or HM move you are basically saying "technical move move" or "hidden move move"
which to me sounds weird after finding these out.
edit:
i never made any mistakes so far in pokemon, because i only play gen 3 and since when i started playing pokemon, i loved it so much i wanted to learn everything about it so early. so i already knew about shinies and how important they were, and i knew how important stat difference moves were. so far the only mistake i made was killing mewtwo, luckily i still had a save file beforehand battling mewtwo, so it i still caught him.
