10 Easy Ways To Get Impossible Video Game Trophies

7. Heavy Traffic - Pokémon Black And White 2

Though the Nintendo DS wasn't made to register achievements, Pokémon Black and White 2 still decided to go above and beyond and create their own "Medal Hunt" to simulate them.

Only, very few people have ever likely completed this hunt, because a ton of the achievements are either excessively time consuming or otherwise just outright incredibly difficult.

One achievement that has only continued to get more difficult over time is the Heavy Traffic medal, which you get for tagging one thousand players with your C-Gear, which requires you to be near other players.

If you lived in the middle of nowhere - or just anywhere that wasn't rife with Pokémania - you were more or less doomed to never get it.

But there was one hilarious tactic you could employ if you really, really wanted nothing more in life than to get that sweet medal. That method was to go to an event like Comic-Con while Black and White 2 was still the most recently released Pokémon game, and allow the constant flow of fellow dorks to let you get insane amounts of tags.

Nowadays? It'd be even more impossible, as this route isn't going to work the same.
