Simple. Tell us your most cringe-inducing moment in the Pokémon video games! Side series are allowed too. So... what is it? Didja kill that shiny? Waste a Master Ball on a trio Poké? Or faint on B98F of Zero Isle South?
I've had a lot of them, mostly in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2: EoT. One I'll mention right now is, in fact, fainting on B92F of Zero Isle South, the dungeon which is largely regarded as impossible to beat. Know how I got that far? Pass Scarf. Turns out it doesn't work on attacks that affect the whole room, though. And one doesn't gain EXP from enemies defeated with the Pass Scarf. So, by the time I was on B92F, I was a significantly lower level than the enemy Pokémon. And only a couple shots of Silver Wind killed me.
However, the main reason that's cringe-inducing is that I thought I could get out of the situation, so instead of using my Escape Orb to cut-and-run, saving my immense collection of rare items that I had gathered thus far in Z.I.S., I stayed and fought. And lost. And losing a nice bundle of money, Proteins, Zincs, Calciums, Ginsengs, Irons, Ribbons (of various types), Life Seeds, Joy Seeds, Sitrus Berries... all the sexy items, in the process. *cringes*
