    My first game was Pokemon Black and I chose Tepig as my starter. The game asked me if I wanted to give my Tepig a nickname and I didn’t know what a nickname was (English isn’t my first language), so when the keyboard appeared I got scared and wrote Tepig. Now I have a lvl 80 Emboar called Tepig.

    My first Pokemon game was heart gold. My brother told me that once you catch all of the unown, you unlock a secret room where giratina is. Being 9 years old I believed him, but due to a lack of internet access I had no idea where to catch different letters. I spent so many hours just trying to get all the unown before finally giving up, and I only learned that there was no hidden giratina room when bdsp came out because I finally bothered to google all the letter locations. It took me 11 goddamn years to figure this out.

    When I played Soulsilver for the first time I didn’t know what a shiny was and I somehow found a full odds Gyarados, but because of the guaranteed red Gyarados event earlier in the game I thought it was just a different form and that I didn’t want another one 😭

    When I first played omega ruby I assumed all pokemon evolved via level up so I ended up having like a level 100 kadabra in my game. Eventually I traded with someone to evolve it and they didn't give it back because we "didn't shake on it" so I had to catch another pokemon to trade them just to get my alakazam back. Needless to say I have some trust issues with trading after that

    During my Pokemon Y playthrough I found a strange pink sneasel on the snowy route (probably one of my fav pokemon). I fainted it for the precious experience as I wasn't aware of what shiny pokemon were, although it got me intrigued as to why it was pink. A quick google search later and I figured out my mistake :,) Luckily I was able to catch 2 shiny sneasels since then :)

    I've never failed a Shiny. I'm always VERY careful when one shows up, and I always carry around plenty of Pokeballs in case of randoms.
    I have, however, 'lost' a Shiny. My very first one.
    I was playing Emerald when it first came out, and since FireRed was my first game, I was not a newbie to things. However, I had never encountered a Shiny before, and didn't even know they existed. As I was grinding near the Daycare, I encountered an Oddish that was a weird color, and it sparkled. As I am essentially a bird and was attracted by the sparkles, I caught the Oddish and put it on my team, naming it Oddie, because I clearly was a creative child. I kept it on my team for the rest of the game, evolving it into a Vileplume, and was always mystified by its weird appearance and the sparkle animation. Through that entire time, my dumbass never figured out that this thing was RARE, and when I was bored one day, I reset the game and lost Oddie, thinking "Oh, I'll just catch another weird Oddish, no big deal".
    After Oddie was essentially killed, that was when I learned about Shinies, and yes, it still hurts.

    When I was very little I was helping my brother complete the dex in Yellow. I kept telling him that the easiest way to get Doduo would be to evolve Farfetch'd. We kept grinding for hours until we realized that I was wrong.
    Another time when I was a bit older, I was playing Emerald for the first time, and my dumb ass wouldn't bother to read NPC dialogue. So there was this part where you had to go to Mt. Chimney to get to the Magma Hideout and I had no idea. I kept going in circles throughout the whole region over and over until I finally decided to read one of the NPCs who told me I had to go there. When I finally started progressing again, it had been days and my team was in their 70s.
    Luckily I haven't made big mistakes as an adult lol

    In pokemon let's go pikachu, I was facing Bruno in the elite four and his onix set up stealth rocks at the start and I was down to his poliwrath. My only pokemon alive was moltres and it was at half health and I thought stealth rocks halfed your current health on flying type pokemon. I was super angry when my moltres died immediately and made me lose the battle.

    In pokemon go on an Abra community day, I caught a least 6 shiny Abra's. Knowing how many I caught, I didn't think they were that rare, I transferred all but 1 of them

    Dumbest mistake happened recently - found a shiny cuffant, one I was excited for, only to accidentally click the picnic button... you can imagine my horror. And no, it was not there when I ended the picnic.

    ok, so a few things. One: I was shiny hunting in Moon for my second ever shiny, a bounsweet, that I was going to name Amythyst. I was doing the knock-out method and I didn't notice it was shiny until the point where I saw it faint. I did regain it though. Two: Later on, I lost that Moon version I had so many shinies (18) including my first ever shiny, a shiny Umbreon named Opal, and my first level 100 a non-shiny mimikyu named Jessie. Three: in that same moon game I used my master ball on the Lunala even though it has an easy catch. (i learned that with Sogaleo in sun)
    Bonus: Not exactly a "mistake" but I did spend 7 phases (well I found 12 shinies before it) and almost and about 9 months for a normal shiny sinistea with 33,473 total encounters, not including the shinies and the pokemon I didn't count in the hunts like nidoran (I was only counting the sinistea in the old graveyard) outside of that hunt in Shield. Including the other ones it was around 38,878 encounters not including the full odds aerodactyl that happened during one of the phases (but it wasn't part of my sinistea hunt so I didn't consider it a phase) and a mantyke and blaziken from Dynamax adventures. I also got pokerus if that helps with how long i was hunting. I named the sinistea iNSaNiTea for the pun and how this hunt drove me insane.

    In fire red, I thought you were supposed to stay on the boat in Vermilion City. When it would sail away, I restarted my game. I was young when this happened.

  • @cyclonegames9215

    My first ever use of a Master Ball was on a Torkoal in Emerald.
    I also thought Cut was a level up move instead of an HM so grinded my Treecko(evolved into Grovyle) for days on the Whisher at the route between Rustboro City and the tunnel.
    Yep I wasn’t the smartest kid when I was young.

    When I first started playing main-series Pokémon games back in Gen 5, I didn’t know that only “outsider” Pokémon disobeyed when they leveled past the limit for the number of badges you had, so I was always afraid to level up my Pokémon.
    I don’t remember when I learned that Pokémon you catch yourself will always obey you (unless it’s Legends: Arceus.) It might have been during Gen 6, it might have been at some point in Gen 7. It was definitely after I beat X&Y. (I bought both for Christmas that year, and I beat Y in only 5 days (with help from one of my older brothers.))

    My first game was diamond. Bought it used and the person before me had picked chimchar, they were in Jubilife and had no other Pokémon. Played from there until Roark like 5 times before I learned how to save. Didn’t learn how to access the PC until MUCH later. My first Pokémon team was the first 6 Pokémon I caught in diamond.

    same thing that happened to you where you failed the wimpod happened to me. i found a random shiny golisopod in sword and shield and i was really excited, but at the time i didnt know golisopod had emergency exit, i knew the ability existed but i didnt know golisopod had it. i false swiped, it left the battle and im still traumatized from it.

    I think one of the biggest mistakes I made was in my Pokemon Sun game, when I was just starting out on Pokemon games for the first time. I used some rare candies on my Zygarde when it was close to leveling up, because I didn't know at the time that they give the Pokemon the exact amount of EXP they need to level up. I didn't think it would bring it there with the exact amount. I thought it would level it up and have it at the exact amount it was at in the next level. Even worse, I forgot to switch it to the front of my party to get evenly leveled with the others, along with my Flygon. I was wrong.

  • @casualformalities1518

    I had made two mistakes that both involve different times i decided to restart my Pokemon Emerald save. 1) Found and caught my first (of so far two) shiny pokemon - Poochyena, thought nothing of it, got to the last gym and restarted because I was stuck on how to open the gym and thought I'd missed some dialogue, so I restarted the game. 2) I caught a Rayquaza for the first time and at Victory Road, made it my HM Slave because none of my other pokemon could learn them, restarted just because of that

    My very first pokemon game was Ruby, and I got to Mt Pyre and started crying because I thought pokemon could actually die if they got too strong... So I released my favorite Swellow, my SweetieGirl, into the wild so that she could live out a full happy life free. ...She was also the only pokemon I had that had any levels on it, so I had essentially screwed myself for the file. It wasn't a full soft lock, but boy it sure felt like it.

    Second ever Pokémon play through, my (then undiagnosed) adhd ass playing through Alpha Sapphire for the first time and being very excited. I was sweeping through everything in an attempt to beat the game before I had to go back to school after winter break. I forgot to save before fighting Kyogre and accidentally KOed it, so of course I end up resetting to try and catch it.
    ….I hadn’t saved for two gyms

    My son mentioned that as a side note, Pokérus is in fact, a fatal disease, that will kill your Pokémon quicker than it just dying of old age, even though it gains EV's faster. Which is why the tombstones, inside the Poké-Tower make so much sense, when looking back on the original games
