Silly Things You've Seen On The OU Ladder!

At first, I didn't see what the big deal was. Coil + Zap Cannon is actually kinda clever. But as the match went on... Wow, neither of those guys knew what they were doing.

"Scizor used Fury Cutter!" (On a Ferrothorn... whose user had a Volcarona and wasn't switching the darned thing in. And the Scizor wasted its time getting up to 4x Attack first, even though it was getting the life sucked out of it by Leech Seed and the Ferrothorn happily set up Stealth a Rock and then ineffectually whaled on it with Gyro Ball and Power Whip. Wow. Just... Wow. That was the highlight of the match right there.)
Oh, and after the Scizor fainted, he brought in Kyurem-B and used Outrage. On the frickin' Ferrothorn. Needless to say, Kyurem-B fainted shortly after Ferrothorn did.
There was also a part where Ferrothorn used Gyro Ball under Trick Room. What. (This was before the Scizor came in, by the way.)
Depending on the set, Scizor can stay in on Ferrothorn and boost if he's not switching it out. x4 Bug Bite or Superpower will kill. Fury Cutter is just bad though. And I wouldn't always switch Volcy into Ferrothorn, many of them use Thunder Wave. That being said, that whole thing was just bad.

That, and TR has no effect on Gyro Ball. But still.

Gyro Ball's power is not affected by TR.

Given that Ferrothorn and Volcarona were on the same team, I don't see how this is relevant. (He meant switch it into Scizor)

Dat Life Orb Energy Ball Deoxys-S. Also, Thunder Genesect. Oh, and Aerial Ace Talonflame.

Agility Lopunny.

...And Cinccino.
Energy Ball isn't too terrible - way too many Rotom W's running around. Also Thunder Genesect would be a good idea in rain or gravity, but not on this team. The thing that makes this guy's team funny = completely random pokemon (seriously, I can't tell what he was thinking, especially with 2 4x weak to rock and no spin/defog/bounce as far as i can tell), mostly random movesets (steel wing Talonflame?), and his decision making skills (leaving Genesect in on Victini, for example).

Yeah, I know but since that Deoxys also knew Thunderbolt (and the Life Orb), it made me think it was an all out attacker set. Alakazam is better at that I suppose.

Steel Wing's not bad on TFlame, because it is TFlame's only way to hit Rock-types like T-Tar.
 
Well, it got U-Turn, but you got a point.
The thing is that there aren't lots of other Rock-Types out there, mainly Terrakion (which gets more damage from a neutral Brave Bird anyways: 56.3 - 66.8% vs 72.4 - 85.4%). The occasional Defense buff is nice, but when taking into account that 90% accuracy...


EDIT: ...Dunsparce. That aside, awesome Truant Durant + Shadow Tag Gothitelle combo: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-77273619

I Don't Believe This Thing Exists Episode 5!

I beg to differ, moron. Show me a battle when you win with your favourite Splash Modest Magikarp.

Enough for today.

Air balloon hydreigon. It's become tradition for us to post a airballoon+(levitate/flyingtype) set every page here. The birds trio also have silly sets!
Having more than 3 Pokémon sharing the same weakness is stupid in any case, but 5 out of 6 Pokémon weak to Rock?!?!?!? 3 of which had a double weakness!?!?! Was that guy trying to be cubstomped?!?!?

I didn't know Salamence could learn Wish...
I think it gets it from Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
