Pokémon Special/Tear Jerker

"Janine: You mentioned that you'd follow your father's footsteps and become a leader. It seems that I have fought a similar oppenent again... I guess this is my fate."
 * Red getting the living crap beaten out of him while Pika could do nothing but watch and cry "Piiiiiiiiii!" was incredibly heart-wrenching.
 * We see a peek of Lance's past, and as a little kid, he sees a bunch of Pokemon dying in industrial waste. As he desparately hugs a Dratini to his chest, crying, his Viridian powers let him feel just how much it's suffering. The experience was so bad that even after his defeat, he didn't perform a Heel Face Turn, not exactly.

People important to her are getting hurt and she can't do anything about it, just like how it was
 * Toward the end of the RS arc...


 * Also, when Mimi came back to Ruby, after everything he'd done. Ruby's speech, along with the fact that he's crying too...*sniff*.
 * Blue and her parents. Just Blue and her parents. Godspeed, Blue. Godspeed.
 * The near end of the FRLG arc when
 * This troper has seen people who've cried over this scene.
 * Emerald's back story.
 * Diamond and Pearl arc- when all three protagonists wake up the first morning after And then all three of them start crying, and it's just a heartbreaking moment.
 * N reveals to White that Gigi has always wanted to battle instead of just performing. When White tries to jump out of the Ferris Wheel and urges Gigi to do the same...
