Have you ever regretted a Pokémon trade?

An old friend of mine got jealous that I had caught Mewtwo in LeafGreen, as he could never get passed the Elite Four in FireRed. When I transferred it into my Diamond, he literally begged me to give him my Mewtwo. We got into a big argument, so I gave in and I traded my Mewtwo to him for some Pokemon I can't remember, I think it might have been a Gliscor. That was about 2.5 years ago.

Now, in 2011, he plays noting but Call of Duty, doesn't play Pokemon anymore, and looks at porn constantly, yet he STILL won't give back my Mewtwo.

Such a whiner.
 
Once traded my swampert lv 100 that i trained for a giritina without knowing that i would be able to catch one -.-
 
Oh, yes. I accidentally turned my sister's wartortle into a machamp back in the days of RBY. She still hasn't forgiven me for it.
 
This isn't exactly what I traded, but it was the previous owner of my Pokemon Pearl did. When he gave it to me as my b- day present, I find out he not only traded his starter (Torterra, don't ask me how it was fully evolved) and his Riolu as well!:nono:
 
When I traded my good-natured pokemon team from my leafgreen version to my classmate's emerald version.. then the next day, his save file was deleted due to the corruption of file ....
 
The Worst Trade You Ever Done

Well with the GTS trading has been made very easy and you can find what you want very easy.

But some times we make bad trades over online or sometimes with friends.

So what is the worst trade you ever did?
 
Yesss. On the last day of third grade, a kid on the school bus offered to trade me his Arcanine for my Articuno. I don't know why, but I told him yes.

I came to my senses as the day went on and asked him for my Articuno back on the bus ride back home. He refused to trade it back, saying the trade was final. I got some of the comparatively ancient middle schoolers on the bus to intimidate him into trading it back to me, though, ahaha.
 
I traded my legitimate Shiny Palkia for a regular Lugia. Diamond/Pearl came out years before HeartGold/SoulSilver, so Lugia was pretty much event only back then. Still, I regret that trade and hate when my friends bring it up.
 
I remember back when I was dumb, I traded my Uxie (that took 120 ultra balls to catch) and I traded it for a shiny Squirtle.
 
not realy, as i've only made one trade over the GTS

A meowth for a growlith

mainly, i'm to damn sentimental to trade anything.
 
Way back in my Red or was it Blue... anyways I traded my Vaporeon for my cousins Chansey I felt jepted but it was a no trade backs and now I have this curse that I will never get to use a vaporeon again I always want one but I always forget about until it's to late
 
I usually don't since I usually trade to give other people version exclusives or rare pokemon I've breed so I usually don't lose anything.

But there was that time I traded the sawk that won me the second badge for a throh (it was pokemon black where throh is very rare) I should have caught another sawk for that trade.
 
Yes. A friend couldn't beat a gym leader so i lended her my glaceon. When she defeated the gym leader i wanted my glaceon back but she refused to give him. I never saw my glaceon again :(.
 
I traded away a Mew from the 2006 Toys 'R Us event for a shiny Metagross. Only to find out later that the Metagross was hacked...
 
Yes, actually. It was an in-game trade in Emerald. A Ralts for a Seedot. The only reason I did it was because I couldn't find a Seedot. So, I went and got a Ralts and traded it. I started training the Seedot and evolved it into Nuzleaf. Well, once when I was training it on the route east of Fortree, I found a Seedot in the grass. I was so mad because I could've found one anyway and not have one with a stupid name.. Dotty...
 
I traded away my lv100 ev trained Alakazam for a Rayquaza caught in my friend's Ruby version. at level 70. >_> I was 8 years old at the time but still I say, "NO EXCUSES, IT WAS MY FAULT!" :(
