I had a Gold Mystery Key (I can’t remember how I got it), worked hard to get a Gold Mystery Box, then I was thrilled to get a Dark Stone and find out that (I thought) I could get a Zekrom from it. Then I went to the quest, got asked to pick Truth or Ideals, panicked because I didn’t know what I was supposed to do, Googled it to see what the answer was, found someone who said the answer was Truth, picked Truth, and then it took my Dark Stone away from me and I don’t get to do the quest for Zekrom.

I’m heartbroken. This is completely unfair. Please, someone, help.

~UmbreonLover~, it’s too late for that now. I told you that someone lied about the answer and I believed them and now my Dark Stone is gone.

I never said it was a bug. This section says it’s for complaints as well. I said that this is extremely unfair—that’s a complaint.

Im pretty sure that this section of the forum is for reporting bugs or complaining about a part in the website
this belongs in "discussion" or "off-topic" I think

No, it doesn’t. I AM complaining about the website. It’s extremely unfair how this section of the website is set up to leave people like myself and the first person who replied to me heartbroken because we had a fifty fifty chance on that silly question and chose Truth and that was apparently wrong and thus we didn’t get anything. It shouldn’t be like this.

It wasn’t even a question. It wasn’t anything that could possibly be figured out. How was I supposed to know that Truth is wrong?

I just want my Dark Stone back. Rashiram and I should both get our Dark Stones back, and so should anyone else who lost theirs because they picked Truth (which I think anyone would think is obviously the correct answer).

Maybe you shouldn't trust sources which aren't legitimate and double check?

There AREN’T any official sources on this. It’s a terrible setup.

I had just woken up, and I wasn’t expecting to be faced with something like that—a question with no right answer (except, you know, the obvious answer—the TRUTH, which for some horrible reason is considered wrong here)—and I was afraid that I’d run out of time if there was a time limit, so I was rushing to find the answer anywhere in case I’d be disqualified by failing to pick an option quickly enough, because this horrible thing leaves you completely in the dark, and I went with the first answer I saw.

Maybe you shouldn’t be callous and cruel to someone who was cheated and is now hurting, SH1NYM. And, by the way, I saw YOU give false information to someone in another thread. Thankfully I was there to correct your misinformation, but it’s a shame that people on this site are left with so much uncertainty, not having any legitimate sources to check on so many aspects.

Edit: I just spent 100,000 PD of the money I was desperately saving up to expand my boxes with in order to instant-buy a Zekrom with a bad nature just because I couldn’t bear not being able to have one now after the promise of the Dark Stone was taken from me so ridiculously. I’m hurting even more now.

Exactly, MercilessPurge. That’s money I could never spend. I still have no idea how on earth I’m supposed to afford the Mega Stones that the Megaable Pokémon I’ve hatched need.

Even though I’m really young, I have really bad arthritis because of bad genes and an extreme illness that I suffered from for years as a young child, and it hurts me a lot to have to do all of this tapping on my phone for interactions to get even a little bit of money, but I still try so hard to do it all I can, and it really hurts to lose what little I’ve been able to earn like this. It causes physical pain for me as well.

I’m trying really hard to get every single Pokémon on here because I don’t have any money in real life, thanks to my medical issues, so I can’t buy any of the new games. This is the closest I can get to experiencing them. And my DS died a long time ago, so I can’t play the Gen 5 games that Zekrom’s in, either. I thought it was so neat when I found a site like this for free while I was randomly browsing. I thought it was so cool how every Pokémon that’s been created could be here. This was meant to be the sort of wonderful escapism that I desperately need right now.

I swore I’d never spend even 20,000 PD on a single Pokémon. That I’d just wait for my luck to be good. I can’t believe I ended up losing so much over something that was meant to be a great, lucky break that I’d also worked really hard for.

But, Zekrom is the Ideals pokemon, is it not? What site did you use to even find this information, as you said it wasn’t an official source.

Okay, 1: okay, calling me cruel? I suggested you to use trusted sources. By that, I mean mods.
2: You're acting like I gave false info on purpose. I said as far as concerned, it's not that deep.
3: If you're that upset, why didn't you do background research before you started lmao? I personally do this all the time. I'm sorry if I sounded like an idiot 💀 I don't actually mean to set up beef, alr? Keep it calm.

Oh yeah, you also mentioned arthritis? I beg you, stop clicking. That ain't helping, heck, play something that won't harm you. Try keep getting money by selling gems from the dream world shop. You shouldn't be doing that to yourself - nor should you be getting sad over a game. It isn't worth it.

Zekrom is associated with ideals, and Reshiram, its counterpart, is associated with Truth. You can find this on Bulbapedia :')
It is essentially a pokemon trivia question

But I do agree that it should not remove your stone if you get the question wrong

"Its more real and stuff"
then you guys should have checked official sources
and there are official sources about this
you could have asked a mod
there are also helpful posts in the forum to tell you what to do example
zekrom is the ideals pokemon, so obviously the answer would be ideals
