I feel like the only way Unown will ever get a KO in a winning game is if Umbreon Mean Look's a Pokemon using Choice'd Earthquake and then Baton Passes to Unown. Even then, Unown will find a way to fail. I just know it.

ragequits should count, otherwise it'd be ridiculous

you should try to record some of the battles with the easy ones; you'd get tons of views on the youtube channel

Just got a some KOs, all in Ubers. I've got two with my Calm Mind Espeon that Magic Bounced back a Thunder Wave at a Giratina-O, getting +2 Sp.Atk/Sp.Def, killing it and a Chandelure with Shadow Ball. Staraptor Close Combatted a Bisharp, OHKOing it, and my own Bisharp finished off an Azumarill with Sucker Pinch. Giratina-O survived a +2 Shadow Claw and OHKOed witha Draco Meteor. Even Cryogonal(the angry snowflake) OHKOed a Nidoking who tried to use Earth Power on it(yay for levitate!)

5 points if you can get your kill with unknown without using baton pass... that will be hell.

A Specs Unown really isn't all THAT bad... It's really just a matter of sending it in on something using EQ and then hitting something on the switch and hoping it's SE XD

It's more a matter of patience (waiting for the right opposing team) than anything else. Same with a lot of the "really bad" ones.

Unless you hit a gyarados on the fly with spec'd hp electric and crit, your not killing any common pokemon with unknown. Unfortunately this means that (chances are) your going to need to search until you find one of the guys that uses hyper beam in ubers.

Why don't you just build a Baton Pass core with 5 Pokemon and change up the 6th all the time. Boring but effective.

HP Fire Specs'd Unown can 2HKO Ferrothorn. OHKO if there's sufficient Spikes down and you're lucky. And a solid OHKO in Sun with no other support. And of course Unown outspeeds Ferrothorn.

I'd run calcs on other stuff, but just saying. There're a lot of common Pokemon with dual weaknesses that Unown could hit for some nasty damage, usually on the switch, since no one fears Unown. And he's only got to pull it off once XD

Edit:

Interestingly, it's a 76HKO or something insane with the same Unown that 2HKOs Ferrothorn XD

Jonathan,
The idea is not to use a baton pass team, as that really makes the skill and endurance challenge just an endurance challenge.

Update! I got some more KOs. Zekrom had a sweep with Bolt Strike,killing a Togekiss, Blastoise and Reunicles. Ho-Oh killed a Charizard. Reshiram also swept in the sun. But here's the big new: Unown survived a -2 Draco Meteor from a weakened Garchomp and killed it with a sun boosted HP Fire! Delibird also 2HKOed a Shymin with an Ice Shard. It may have 1HKOed, bu I gave it a Scarf instead of a Band.

Edit: Also, like Daenym suggested on the first page, I will be doing a race with Mr_br_kill to try and get a kill with all of he Deoxys forms in Ubers. The OP has been updated with both these KOs and the new ways to play suggested by Daenym and Mr_br_kill.

Hey something that I think needs clarification.

Does the Poke need to be alive when he gets his KO? My Ttar ended up being the first poke outta the game, he got hit by a Drain Punch, but in the late game his sandstorm starts to KO things. Is he getting kills?

BTW You've received a Luvdisc. And I'm taking the challenge, will simply update as each poke gets a KO.

Due to Smogon being down right now I can't test my RU farfetch'd anti-lead set, but if anyone else sees it go back up, it's:

Farfetch'd @ Lum/Stick
Jolly
Inner Focus
252 Atk/252 Spe/4 HP
-Brave Bird
-Quick Attack
-Night Slash
-Leaf Blade

Basically he has moves that can kill some RU threats if they can't think straight due to rolling on the floor laughing their shit out at your Farfetch'd

Beartic Superpowered a Chansey and killed a weakened Lugia with an Icicle Crash. specs Dragonite killed everything and anything with Hurricane and Surf(in particular, an Arceus-ground). Palkia was either sweepiing with Surf or wrecking tems with Draco Meteor. Specs Politoed rivaled Kyogre with incredibly powerful Specs Hydro Pump. But the biggest thing is that Luvdisc was a decent revenge killer, with Swift Swim and Hydro Pump, revenging things lke Reshiram!

This is somehow more amazing than the magikarp uber clean sweep... but to be fair that utilized baton pass. I recomend trick room if you get stuck on anything, going first is huge when you die in one hit.

If I might add something Scrafty can kill 4 uber pokes, clean sweep discounting that poison from his Ferrothorn.

At first I thought this was in-game, so I got really confused >.<

And the title really suits the challenge btw XD

I may give it a try, just for the hell of it.

For my challenge, I won't use the "win the battle" restriction, although it will have to do at least 50% and deal the finishing blow.
