I still think that at the very least Golduck ought to be Water/Psychic. And maybe Psyduck, but I'm a lot less insistent on that, considering how a lot of Pokédex entries mention how it can only use its mysterious powers when its headache is at its peak, and that it won't recall having done so afterwards. Then again, one of Psyduck's Pokédex entries goes; While lulling its enemies with its vacant look, this wily Pokémon will use psychokinetic powers. This implies that it just plays stupid to be able to catch its enemies off-guard. And the anime has proven that Misty's Psyduck's usual ineptitude in using Confusion and Disable isn't usual for its kind. And several of Golduck's Pokédex entries do mention its use of psychic power.
But that's not what I came in here with the intention of saying. No, I think Gligar and Gliscor ought to be Poison/Flying instead of Ground/Flying. They seem to be based off of combinations of bats (which can be poisonous) and scorpions (which are poisonous). They get a good number of Poison moves. Gligar's first move obtained by leveling up? Poison Sting. They get Venoshock, Sludge Bomb, Poison Jab, Poison Tail, and Cross Poison. Hell, the fact that their Hidden Abilities are Immunity and Poison Heal tell us that they're supposed to have an affinity with poison. Obviously said Abilities would need changing should this retype occur, but yeah.
Trying to Rare Candy an 'M to level 100 in Red without letting it evolve. Gave me a newfound appreciation for the Everstone.

Any level 5 Rescue Mission puzzle in Pokémon Puzzle Collection. Especially Mew.
Trying to beat the other Pikachu in Pikachu's Rocket Start in Pokémon Party mini. It's doable, but you wouldn't think to try it.
There was the time I found a Shiny Ditto in Gold. It was like slow torture- not only did I run out of Poké Balls trying and failing to catch something that had taken on the appearance, types, stats, moves, and catch rate of a freaking Hoothoot, but I couldn't run, so I had to watch it KO itself with Struggle.
