I was grinding against Secret Base Trainers, trying to get some Igglybuffs to evolve during a breeding project, beating that trainer's team of Dragons, when he sends in a Mega Rayquaza.
I have Sapphire, by Kyogre out, so I'm thinking Mega Rayquaza or not, he must realized he is doomed.
And so I fire off an Ice Beam.
"Rayquaza avoided the attack" or something like that, and proceeds to batter Sapphire with a hefty Dragon Ascent. I'm thinking "Why you sneaky little bastard! Don't worry though, I'll get you next turn!".
I fire off another Ice Beam.
"Rayquaza avoided the attack".
"WHAT?!!! HOW THE FUCK DOES A 100 ACCURACY MOVE MISS TWICE IN A @#$%^&* ROW, HUH GAME?!!!"
"Rayquaza used Dragon Ascent".
"Oh ho ho ho, no you don't!!! You're going to lose, and you're going to like it!!!", and I promptly reset the game, and promptly put that Rayquaza in his place, Mega or not! It is one thing if I lose due to my own limitations. But I don't like loosing to hacks.
The b@st@rd must've been holding BrightPowder. I miss the days when you could farm items from NPCs.
Not as bad as many of you have it, but still, that has never happened to me.
I spent about an hour breeding my rapid spin Excadrill that would know Rapid Spin, Earthquake, Rock Slide and Iron Head...only to learn Iron Head is a move tutor move from last gen. And the only other steel attack he learns is Metal Claw. FML.
Poison Jab it is, I guess. Hope I don't run into too many too many Shuckle, Armaldo, or Cradily.
Boy, I hope the move tutors in the sequel game(s) include Iron Head. Man, I can't believe Excadrill only learns one steel attack. Jesus, Gamefreak.
