When you skip one or two trainers on a route, then go back to hatch a few eggs or something and get stuck in a battle between your low level magmar (Flame body or Magma armor pokemon) and end up losing. Don't you just hate when that happens? Post your funny and possibly similar stories here!

For me, I forgot Jogger Craig on Route 215 and got sent back to the Pokemon Center (my magby's like level 5).
 
It's a bit different here, but I often totally forget about the roamers and then get a heart attack while I'm out gathering evs.
 
for me it was a little different because when i had finished Platinum, i was trying to open up Pal Park, but i couldn't cuz i hadn't seen a Magby/Togepi and went all around looking for one, then i walked by a breeder and was challenged by his pokemon that i was missing :p funny to think tho cuz i had intentionally skipped him but idr why...
 
That's happened to me a few times before in Platinum. Good thing my Magmar was level 30ish. I've also had the roamers come and break my chains, which is really annoying. >.>
 
Happened to me once (Pearl), I've gone down a route where a jogger was always running in circles. I've always passed him, until one day I stopped to check my Poketch - all the sudden the Encounter music started playing! I FREAKED OUT
 
Well, I usually try to battle every Trainer on every route. Apparently, I missed some on Route 41. Good thing I was using my main team to find and catch Mantine and not trying to hatch Eggs! Especially when one considers the types of Pokemon Swimmers usually use...
 
There's always someone in a gym I miss. I missed one in Erika's for example.
 
I skip trainers all the time, so I can beat the game faster.

It is also possible to skip leaders in kanto and johto.
 
I just found several trainers that I hadn't fought on Emerald today... and they weren't on a sea route. I don't know how I lasted so long without battling them. They were at the far right of Route 123 that requires cut to get to. :dizzy:
 
Considering I almost always have my level 100 scizor on me in case a random shiny appears, I rarely lose these battles; but I get annoyed when the experience is waisted on scizor.
 
It's never an issue for me, as the Pokémon I use for hatching eggs is either my Magcargo or my Magmortar, both of which are level 100 and are regularly rotated into my team.
