So i had a rather strange occurance today in the bug catching area. 
I went in with my gallade (false swipe) and I ended up encountering a Heracross.  I catch it, notice it has decent ivs. (126 total) 
So when i go to the event guy to tally up the score for the Heracross, he says I didnt catch it in the bug area and theirfor it didnt count.   Like what is that about.  I ended up having to put forward a 115 wormadam because my Heracross just wanted allowed to be entered in the contest. 
Please look into this, because this is an issue that I honestly do not wanne encounter again.  I ended up being only second in the contest while I am sure the Heracross would have won it for me.

on this picture you can clearly see that I am inside the bug catching area, talking to the event guy, with a gallade in my first slot on full health.  And the Heracross in my 3rd slot on 1hp.   The guy says i didnt catch it in the bug area and theirfor it doesnt count!     
PS sorry I ended up placing a gyazo in this post, as I have no idea how to post the picture in itself in here
