    Alright so idk if anyone remembers or not, but there is an NPC in Snowpoint city, who says they will trade you a Haunter for a Medicham. When I saw this (probably was like 10 or 11 when i played D/P) I was jumping with excitmenet. Finally a way to get a Gengar through the main games, and it can be traded to you :D . So as soon as the trade goes through, what happens? The Haunter doesn't evolve...what?! So the NPC then tells, "Oh were you expecting something during the trade, well just an fyi my Haunter is holding an everstone. That made me so mad, You can't believe how mad I was from this. (Wanted to stop playing altogether)T_T

    So tell me did anyone have a similar reaction or story with this one NPC in Snowpoint city? Do you think Gamefreak should bring this back? T_T

    That is the worst troll I have ever seen in any Pokémon game. Holy crap, the person who came up with that is an asshole xD I understand that I can be really upsetting when you're really excited for getting a Gengar. I like the joke, but this should be a one-time thing. Don't try that shit again, okay?

    This was pretty jarring, especially since in I think Yellow there was a trade where you could give a Cubone for a Machoke that would immediately evolve into Machamp. Although Gengar would be much more overpowered in Gen IV than I, it's still not right, especially given how late in the game it is.

    THIS MADE ME SO ANGRY. Especially since I couldn't trade to get a Gengar and was excited to actually be able to get one.

    I mocked the name Gaspar for many months after that...

    Haha that was great. I think I already had a Gengar but I was still really shocked that it didn't evolve. What a jerk.

    I never actually traded the Medicham, but that is actually really funny. Kudos to GameFreak for that.

    Oh yeah! I remember that! I laughed uneasily after the NPC said, "were you expecting anything to happen? It's holding an everstone." but other than that I wasn't too bothered by it.

    I had a guidebook, so it warned me that it was carrying an Everstone. :3

    I never attempted to trade with the guy, but I would've found it funny more than anything else. Nothing like being tololololed by an NPC.

    I never actually knew this happened?? But oh my gosh it sounds Hilarious. Like I can imagine the troll song playing as the haunter comes over the trade

    Oh lord I remember being so mad over that >_> That's why I don't like trading Pokémon that evolve over trade very much. I'm always dreading the everstone;;
    Even if they did put it back in, I wouldn't do the trade :|
