I've seen so many people who don't realize that Arceus doesn't change types without Multitype and the correct plate. >_>
 
Mono-magikarp team in hackmons? Not too silly, we've all done it before.

BUT a mono magikarp team winning an Other Metas hackmons tour with 39 people?

Hackmons better start suspecting things soon; if we don't suspect magikarp, we might all be doomed. You can just see by the replays below how well magikarp just simply tears through unprepared teams. You might laugh at it when you see it, but that laughter will slowly turn to tears and those tears will turn into the blood of your hands when your face is ripped off in the eternal agony that can only be described by the feeling of getting 6-0'd by mono-magikarps. Enjoy. While you can.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146384781
- The nightmare begins with a 6-0 against a competent-looking team. His mold breaker is utterly annihilated by magikrap power.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146389350
- Brings a substitute + baton pass wonder guard user, which is basically the number 1 counter to my team. Also brings 3 mold breakers, which are the number 2 counters to my team. Yet the magikarps can still plow through.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146400529
- 1724 on the hackmons ladder? Pfftt... nothing the magikarps can't handle. As usual, the 6 magikarps form an impenetrable core.

Oh and if you're blaming me hitting 2 sheer colds in a row on that last one, I dunno what you're talking about; last 4 times I used OHKO moves, they all hit, why shouldn't they hit for you? Either that or your luck is extreme (magi)crap. And now, a picture:

(didn't use surskit or sheddy because everyone uses surskit and sheddy. IMO too overused)

use an all-shedinja / surskit team. Magikarps are overrated
 
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146467916
Quick Claw Shedinja, normal Latios, and an all-Shuckle team.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146468189
Deoxys-N. With Pressure. And, it was later revealed to have Focus Punch but not Substitute.
Non-mega Tyranitar with Outrage.
Ditto in Hackmons.
Come to think of it, that guy looked like he had an Ubers team. And not a good one.
That Blaziken probably had Blaze. It also had Toxic and Overheat.
Dragon Pulse+Return+Flamethrower Druddigon.
Fly+Draco Meteor+Superpower Flygon staying in on Articuno.
Hyper Beam Chandelure.
Mega Ampharos using Seismic Toss and Return. On Chandelure.
Hidden Power Drapion.
Mega Kick Raichu (and a hilarious turn 27).
And the guy with the shitty Ubers team won.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/inversebattle-146470546
Grass Pledge Venusaur and Aguav Berry Zapdos relying on Thunder too much.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146468802
Samurott, Shadow Ball+Aerial Ace Yveltal, V-create+Skull Bash Sturdinja, and one guy who apparently didn't know what Hackmons is.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pikachutournamentchu-146475914
That Explosion tho.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146476707
Thisisafake name is that you? Also, Air Balloon Mew.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146476838
Poison Heal Mega Mewtwo X (actually that might be legit, just not what I'm used to), Sheer Cold Mega Tyranitar, V-create Parental Bond Mega Kangaskhan, and perhaps both players being unaware of Mold Breaker bypassing Sturdy (either that, or one guy was trolling).

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146479752
Unconventional Pikachu set beats lone Sturdinja.

you sir..... Are a monster. What have you been feeding those poor 'karps to make them so strong?
 
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-146806781
going through replays to kill some time.
found this gem.

shuckle @ ?
ability: prankster
-leech seed
-cosmic power
-mean look
-dark void

and the guy falling for the 'hey you should switch out the only pokemon you have that could potentially whittle this fully set up shuckle to death'

and the guy at the end who was apparently anoning who hadn't noticed shuckle outspeeding everything for the whole match

hackmons is a special, special game.
 
So this happened on a boring thursday night to make tonight a whole lot livelier...

LC in NU: Has anyone ever thought of making a scouting team in Balanced Hackmons?
LC in NU: To investigate the stupidity at the bottom of the ladder
LC in NU: 2 impostors, 2 friskers, and a bouncer and a heal beller
Peef Rimgarr: yeah it's called dualchans
LC in NU: Not dual chans
DreMZ: 6 chansey best team imo 2bh
LC in NU: I meant something like the team used to look at what stupid shit people used
LC in NU: Like ditto/wigglytuff/noivern/smeargle/mew/ekiller
LC in NU: in ubers
Peef Rimgarr: that could get some funny results
Peef Rimgarr: Honestly go pure hacks though
LC in NU: Okay
Peef Rimgarr: It'd be much funnier
LC in NU: you make the team then
Peef Rimgarr: Tbh in PH i'll just use 6 imposters
Peef Rimgarr: no reason not to
LC in NU: Use 3 friskers
Peef Rimgarr: and it'll give me specifics
LC in NU: to investigate items
LC in NU: as well
Peef Rimgarr: alright
LC in NU: Because items are half of the stupid shit people do
Peef Rimgarr: I'm gonna rng 3 pokemon to use as imposters
LC in NU: lol
LC in NU: even funnier
DreMZ: inb4 ditto
Peef Rimgarr: hitmonchan, vanilluxe, piplup
LC in NU: oh
LC in NU: and before I forget
LC in NU: put the OHKO spam deo-s on there as well
Peef Rimgarr: i will
LC in NU: so that you can win if your opp's pokes can't ko themselves
LC in NU: now excuse me while I post this conversation on the "silly things in other metas" thread
To top this off, I changed my alt to Skyward Popsicle for even more lolz.

And the results were hilarious.(WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE, although you should be used to that on this thread.)

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147351550
You can find the movesets in the chat. I really think that this speaks for itself.

http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-hackmons-147354628
At least this guy had slightly more acceptable moves, but look at some of the plays.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147356517
Peef got completely humiliated, but turn 18 happened.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147358815
The classic case of stupidity.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147361879
Finally, someone who isn't stupid, just trolling.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147362711
Vs. a terrible OU team.

Then we got a match against a competent team and asked him to watch.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147364598
What appears to be another troll.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147365335

And before someone asks no i dont actually use imposter piplup in serious play i literally rnged this whole team except for deoxys
 
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147517939
Poof breaks out the scouting team again...

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147521064
But then has to leave, so I take the reins.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147522127

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147524034
How he won before is beyond me.

Then I fought someone who was testing his team.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147526126
Scouting team destroys competent team.(Or what I saw of it.) Mind blown.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147528083
He poisons the phione THAT TRACED POISON HEAL.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-147531159
