So I assume that you've all heard of the popular site, "fmylife".
Just in case any of you haven't, allow me to explain what it is.
It's a website where you go on and post bad things that have happened to you that day.
Some of them are hilarious, some of them make you feel downright sorry for the poor bu***r that posted it.
Here's a few examples.

"Today, my best friend told me to face my fear of cows and hop over the fence in with them. This resulted in me being chased by a raging cow, and thrusting myself head first over a fence. FML"

"Today, my boyfriend and I came across the topic of school while chatting. He asked me what high school I went to and where I moved from. I have lived here my whole life, he was my crush for four years, and was in my classes throughout those years. He doesn't believe me. FML"

"Today, I told my boyfriend his shirt and pants did not match and that he should change for dinner. All my belongings are now on the sidewalk. FML"

So, as you can see, people have it tougher than us.
In this thread though, you will post life stories like this, using the structure of "Today, [INSERT STORY HERE]. FML", but about Pokemon instead.
Yep, you will be posting bad things that have happened to you in Pokemon games.
Now, it doesn't have to have happened today, but just still say so just for sake of it :p
Let me start.

Today, I was in Victory Road on Pokemon Blue, and used a Master Ball on a Machop. I saved the game afterwards. FML.

NOW YOU!
 
Today, I was just about to beat some chick in Random Match-up, when she turned off her game. FML!
 
Shouldn't this be in Fun and Games...?
Anyway, I can't play SoulSilver because my charger is broken. FML.
 
Today, I went over 252 EVs with my Tyranitar. Without any berry. :'(

Even worse, I just beat Lance in HG (last year, this time), saved after, and went around testing the game for about two hours. No saves. I was too excited. I went to the Bug-Catching contest... and found a shiny Beautifly. I killed it.
 
I EV trained up my DW move exclusive poochyena a ton of levels so that it's Sp.Atk. was higher than it's Atk., once i was done, i turned off the game without realizing i didn't save. 188 ev wings down the drain and i had to start all over again! ugh fmpl!
 
Doesn't anyone here understand the laws of the FML?
Anyway...

Today, I was on Pokemon Blue. I was in Victory Road and climbed up some stairs. The second I reached the next floor, the start menu popped up. I pressed B, and a wild Pokemon appeared.
It was a wild Dragonite. I threw an Ultra ball at it, and it missed. The Dragonite fled.
I don't remember exactly what I did for that to happen. FML.
(NOTE: That was actually about 11 years ago).
 
Today I was in the train with a friend, and this obese lady sat infront of us. I jokingly said wild snorlax appeared, and the lady said "guess I'll have to use hyper beam on you." I was scared, my friend laughed. FML

*this really happened, swear to God.

Today, I wasn't there. FML.
 
Today, I realized that Exp. Share shares EVs. (Don't judge me.) Another poke with great potential ruined. FML.
(*White version and with a DS Lite. My internet works on WPA2. That being said, no berries.)
 
Today, I found out that my Samurott, despite all the training I've put into him, has only "decent potential." FML.
 
Well, like TerribleTwelve: Today, I cannot use Wi-Fi because my router's security is WPA2. FML (I also own a DSLite)
And: Today, my lvl 60 bred Breloom was almost knocked down in two hits by a wild Ponyta. It was lvl 40. FML
 
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I beat her by "cheating". Apparently Samurott's Hydro Pump shouldn't have OHKO'd a Pansear. FML.
(This didn't happen, I made it up. Still sounds cool, no?)
 
Today, I was grinding in Victory Road, when a SHINY Durant appears. All I have left is a Stoutland. I use a Dusk Ball, but it escapes. Then it kills Stoutland with a Metal Claw, critical hit. FMPL.
