...it impossible to detect? ? The whole planet on the other side of the sun idea is too complicated to answer w/ a simple "impossible cuz we know how gravity works far too well to not detect that other planet.." afterall it is known that stars do in fact affect Gravity and light in strange ways and as a result we cant really assume there is nothing on the other side by simple gravitational relations between planets, nor by how good o a view any sattelites have...
 
You can always modify your theory to exclude scientific evidence. However, that doesn't make it any more likely to be true.

We have ways of calculating an object's gravitational field, so you propose an object which "affects gravity in strange ways".

We have launched satellites with a clear view of the opposite side of solar system, so you propose an object which is invisible.

I'm guessing the next step will be us sending a probe to that exact location, at which point you suggest that the object has flown to a different place to avoid detection.
 
Your mistake is thinking "stars do in fact affect gravity and light in strange ways". We know exacly how gravity works around a star, which is how we are able to send space probes to other planets so accurately. There is nothing mysterious about it.
 
Hi. Several satellites have gone over the Sun's poles and none have detected another planet. http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=21934
