In its first two seasons, the SDSS-II SN Survey is finding and following-up a large number of Type Ia SNe suitable for Cosmological studies. Due to the large survey volume, we have also found and followed-up with spectroscopy peculiar objects that do not fit in the category of "normal" Type Ia, Type Ib/c or Type II supernovae. Two remarkable examples of the 2005 fall season are SN2005gj, a thermonuclear SN strongly interacting with its dense circumstellar medium, and SN2005hk, a possible pure deflagration Type Ia event. These two objects will be very important to constrain and study possible progenitors and explosion mechanisms of Type Ia supernovae. We will present the optical light curves and spectroscopic properties of these supernovae, as well as other peculiar objects found in the first two seasons of the survey.
