Do You Get Angry/Flip out/Sweat Nervously Playing Pokemon Games?

Two Words: Elite Four. When I was little, I would get owned pretty bad. Luckily I owned a punching bag back then^^
 
Yes, yes. I did scream at my Emerald when I froze Greta's (from the Battle Frontier) Umbreon with a Blizzard from my Articuno, and then it got defrosted on the same/next turn and Confuse Ray'd me.

I was lightly annoyed. OK, I was VERY annoyed.

I was getting annoyed trying to catch Mesprit in a Quick Ball in Emulator-Diamond too (I didn't have any Mean Look/Block/Spider Webbers). But I eventually got it.

The rest of Sinnoh's legendaries went fine. I had to restart three times while trying to catch Giratina though as my Azelf kept accidentally KOing it with Shock Wave.. lol

Erm... You know that you don't have to restart, right?
You just need to either go to a Pokemon Center then go back, or beat the Elite Four and go back. One of those, I can't remember.

I meant in Diamond, on an emulator. It's the one in Turnback cave. I don't think you get to retry in Diamond.. I might be wrong though. But I had saved in front of it and I hated Turnback cave (creepy place) so I just reloaded the game until it finally stayed inside one of my Dusk Balls.
 
I love it when I get the nervous, anticipated feeling when battling big bosses. That is why I love challenging battles, like against the FRLG Elite Four Take 2. They are a beast compared to the Hoenn wimps...
 
I feel nervous when I'm facing a legendary pokemon. I keep on fearing I would KO the pokemon.
 
Just last night I swore at my DS because I somebody ruined my chances of winning a contest. >.<
 
I managed to catch Mesprit in Platinum yesterday. Tracking it down was exhausting -- it kept jumping elsewhere on the map when I got close to it (I wasn't using Fly), but I managed to have Flareon trap and weaken it with Fire Spin. After finding it again, I had Crobat use Mean Look. Fourteen Ultra Balls later... FINALLY!

So, yes... I was a nervous wreck LOL
