Specs and Scarf Magnezone run Flash Cannon. That one is scarfed.
Edit: Err, Im assuming you meant Flash Cannon Metagross. Which is stupid.

Was spectating a battle when I saw this:
Turn 12
The opposing Sceptile used Aerial Ace!
It's super effective! Tangrowth lost 24% of its health!
Tangrowth used Knock Off!
The opposing Sceptile lost 40% of its health!
Tangrowth knocked off the opposing Sceptile's Miracle Seed!

I'm literally #1 on the ladder now and I still see bullshit like this. Can people start playing this so there's some decent competition?

Lol #1 on the ladder. You had 1200 points...
Yes I know, but I still shouldn't run into people using Quilava and Monferno. If you don't believe me, you can go look at the ladder right now.
Oddities of the Ladder, take 8.0:
- Zigzagoon.
- World's Worst Eeveelution Team, consisting of specially offensive Umbreon, Flareon without Flare Blitz, Synchronize Espeon with Yawn while Leafeon had Grass Whistle, and no Sylveon.
- Seismic Toss Typhlosion.
- Special Gyarados with Thunder and no rain support.
- Let's spam Destiny Bond against LV1 Pineco!
- When your opponent is down to one Pokemon, and it's poisoned...using Thunder Wave might be a bad idea.
- Swords Dance + Iron Defense Mega Mawile.
- Umbreon using Toxic on said Mawile.
- ...and THEN a Venusaur using Sludge Bomb on said Mawile.
- Phantump.
- Sitrus Berry Recover Starmie.
- U-turn Ninjask.
- Trick Togekiss with a Choice...Band.
- Hypnosis + Dream Eater Gengar.
- Rattata / Treecko / Starly / Archen / Doduo / Taillow would be bad in LC, but then someone uses it in OU.
- Curselax getting a successful win in gen 6. With only two curses.
- Sitrus Berry + Avalanche Swampert.
- Switching Gliscor into said Swampert.
- A purely offensive male Meowstic.
- A team with five Pokemon on it, one of which was non-mega Ampharos.
- A team with nothing but a single Hitmonlee...with nothing to activate Unburden.
- Another team with five Pokemon on it. I encountered these three right in a row, too.
- Contrary Shell Smash Shuckle with Rollout. It managed to land the final hit, which did an almighty 7% damage. Unresisted, even.
- And finally, I'll leave you with a quote from one of the ladder's luminous visionaries:

Sorry, I didn't see it was theorymons. And you do get matchups against people who are around 200 points lower. I have 1800 points on the ou ladder and sometimes get matched up against someone with 1400/1500 points.

Well then...
Well then...
Some of you guys should bring Ditto into the lower ladder. It's hilarious when you can actually see full the movesets of some people.
Here's some things I spotted on the new Theorymon ladder, because it's still mostly nubs right now
-Jolteon with Thunder Fang and Pin Missile
-Pikachu with 4 Electric attacks.
-Togekiss with Psychic and Aerial Ace
-Non-mega Charizard with Flame Burst, Aerial Ace, and Dragon Rush
-Dragonite with Dragon Rush, Ice Beam, Fire Blast, and an unknown Hidden Power (since my Ditto's IVs are set to have HP Fire, and it was neutral on Cresselia)
-Garchomp with 4 Dragon attacks (which I already posted in a screenshot a while back)
-Gyarados with Blizzard, Hydro Pump, and Dragon Rage
-Non-Speed Boost Scolipede with POISON STING
Bring Ditto into the lower ladder. It won't fail to give you a good laugh.

I'm sorry, did this guy accidently pick OU instead of UU? (Even in UU most of those pokemon are bad.)
And if him using Derpfisk isn't enough for you, it's an Infestation Derpfisk.
PS: Hex Jellicent is the new meta!

in fairness you got messed up pretty good by that zoroark. gj trollfox
That was actually a decently close battle all things considered.
Random Shit volume 44: Say Hello to Volcanion Edition
-Dusclops with both Shadow Sneak and Night Shade.
-HELIX: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-94923184
-So your Blastoise just used Rain Dance, and your opponent's Klefki's Swagger has missed twice in a row. What move should you use? How about Ice Beam?
-Klefki guy also had Pikachu, Gigalith, Serperior, and Shedinja on his team, but we sadly never saw them.
-An apparently physical Gastrodon.
-Weak Armor Skarmory. I never did figure out why people use that.
-Scolipede without Speed Boost, but with Poison Sting.
-Gardevoir with both Destiny Bond and Healing Wish (the latter bringing in a fresh Jolteon). And I though Staraptor was emo.
-Thunder Fang+Pin Missile Jolteon.
-Special Gyarados. This isn't the anime, you know.
-A guy who apparently wasn't aware he was playing Theorymons and had his Garchomp use DM on Cresselia.
-Dark Pulse Cofagrigus. Maybe for the next issue of The Smog, we should teach people how to tell the difference between Dark and Ghost.
-Me, for getting ninja'd by Salt the Flesh up there on some of the ones I have so far.
-Carbink stealing Prankster from Klefki with Skill Swap, then proceeding to use Toxic on it. It then goes into a 77 turn stallfest, ending only when the Klefki player switches.
-Using Sticky Web when your opponent has only one Pokemon remaining.
-It's one thing to run an Eeveelution team. It's another thing entirely to run it like this: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-94923911
-Okay then: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-94922050
-Lols will be had: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pandora-metronomo-358011
-Counter SashHaxorus Zoroark.
-Outrage Landorus-T.
-Focus Punch M-Tyranitar, apparently without Substitute.
-Flamethrower Gyarados.
-Dusclops with both Shadow Sneak and Night Shade.

Magnezone with no boosts or anything defeating an team single handedly http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-94950346 The way he/she played is... intriguing.

I know my own Pokemon isn't exactly viable here, but:
Turn 15:
Tauros used Rock Climb!
The opposing Lopunny lost 93% of its health! (leaving it with 1%)
Tauros fell in love from the Cute Charm!
The opposing Lopunny used Drain Punch!
A critical hit! It's super effective! Tauros lost 87.3% of its health!
Tauros had its energy drained!
Turn 16:
Tauros is in love with the opposing Lopunny!
Tauros used Rock Climb!
The opposing Lopunny avoided the attack!
The opposing Lopunny used Drain Punch!
It's super effective! Tauros lost 2.7% of its health!
Tauros had its energy drained!
Tauros = 0% fainted!
And that is how I lost to offensive Cute Charm Lopunny.
Also, special attacking Cinccino (with Skill Link!) and Ambipom. The former had Dazzling Gleam and the latter had Thunderbolt. I didn't see what else they had because I immediately forfeited.
Also also, Pickup Ambipom with Double Hit, Return and Retaliate. Are sets like these why Ambipom is still hanging onto UU?

Just saw a Mega Medicham with Psychic.
Seriously, I'm lost for words...
EDIT: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-94979724
I mean it could've been a simple mistake to go into battle with Politoed and forget to change its ability to Drizzle. Alas, his/her interesting choice of teammates suggests that he/she probably didn't forget, lol.
