Silly Things You've Seen In Other Metagames

I decided to go mess with the lower BH ladder with an all fossil pokemon team.

Do they not know Fake Out only works your first turn?

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-172863889
That team was, interesting. Especially the Breloom and dual steel STAB Scizor.

And now for battles that aren't me:
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-172886537
5 Blissey team.

A guy who said the battle didn't count because he got crit'd and killed.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-172874036
Mono Bibarel vs. 1 of each Regi. Including Slow Start Regigigas with giga impact and mono ice attacking Regice.

5 Blissey team beats mono Serperior.

Currently trolling the BH ladder with my brand new iM@S team (yes, I'm Producer-san in the replays):

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-172905491
Miki (Slaking) solo vs a lone Hypno.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-172905708
Iori (Deoxys-Speed) burning a Focus Sash Shedinja with Inferno (Sturdinja too mainstream) before letting Miki clean the rest, including a Sky Attack Lugia without Power Herb. I encountered the same player later and (s)he forfeited when (s)he saw my team again.

Another Miki solo vs a feline team.
 
Out of everything in that replay, you're calling out Focus Band as the silly thing?

I mean my Focus Band Rapid Spin Delibird was incredibly useless 99/100 times but the one time it actually did work was absolutely priceless.
And then there was the time said Delibird lured and killed a Giratina. It didn't manage to spin but that was still absolutely priceless.
 
And he immediately forfeits. Low ladder BH, everyone.

Giga Drain Ferrothron, Amnesia Venusaur, Shell Bell Cofagrigus, and Skymin apparently thinking Substitute would be a good move to use while burned.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-172968075
As if Dewgong wasn't odd enough already, meet Flame Orb Fling Dewgong.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/1v1-172978293
Nidorina>Whimsicott. And Venom Drench goes through subs, apparently.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-172974075
Colbur Berry Meloetta with Teeter Dance and Perish Song.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/customgame-172968423
Yawn followed by Will-o-Wisp. That is all.

Ransei
I have been enlightened by Mrs. Ducklett's words of wisdom.
So using Explosion and Final Gambit is cheating. In Hackmons.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/almostanyability-173007736
- uses Stealth Rock twice in a row
- Mew (who was No Guard w/ DynamicPunch and Zap Cannon) gets outsped by 0 Spe Exca
- Illusion Charizard (isn't download better?)
- Sitrus Berry Mew
- Switching Rampardos right in on a +2 Scald from Suicune
Lower ladder is so fun.
I wonder what that Glaceon set was. Probably bad.
 
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173299283
More Explosions. This match was surprisingly close based on the fact that there was a 2 deoxys team.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173279103
Solo Quiver Dance, Coil, Rock Wrecker, Minimize Magic Bounce Arceus.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173273180
This time, the same guy was against a Simple, Bug Buzz, Quiver Dance, Coil, Blaze Kick Arceus, and his team contained a Contrary Minimize Deo-S.

This was a prime example of why you should make your sweepers imposter proof.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173246558
Very nice OU team you've got there.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173227336
Too bad the battle was lost because the guy changed his name. I really wanted to see what the Oshawott was going to do.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173178586
Level 1 Swirlix, and Mega Blaziken though Draco Meteor was a good move to use on it. And the swirlix causes a forfeit.
 
Another series of lives battles with my idols:

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173482200
This lone Bastiodon almost got Hibiki (Mega Pinsir), but it wasn't that hard.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173483142
Afuu... Next time, pack something to counter Miki (Slaking)! And not something like Rampardos nano!

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-173484598
Well, where to start... Cursed Body Mega Heracross*, Air Balloon Mega Scizor**, Blissey (certainly with Imposter, trying to transform into a Transformed Pokémon, maybe?), Color Change + Trick Lagging Tail Wobbuffet.

Scout section for this battle (thanks to Azusa (Chansey)):
*has Conversion and Shadow Sneak on first position
**has Focus Energy and Swords Dance
 
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/1v1-173518523
And that is why you should have Dream Eater in that fourth slot.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-173517019
Why Wobbuffet should use Encore, and RestTalk Lum Berry Malamar.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/frost-oumonotype-1055868
Uh...

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/customgame-173518974
Wacky levels aside, there is no reason to not pay attention to Magic Bounce. Or use those mons.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-173522813
Azumarill used Aqua Tail! Cofagrigus lost 15.9% of its health! Azumarill's Sap Sipper was replaced by Mummy!

Two separate Air Balloon Scizors, one in BH, the other in Monotype.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-173525264
I think rock monos have better things to use than Lairon, Aurorus, Sudowoodo, and Lunatone.
 
Illusion Electrode new meta.
The sad part is that I lost my Staraptor. This means it wasn't a 6-0. I'm very sad about that.
The main I posted though was the Sneasel. I can understand a little if it was Refrigerate, but not Pickpocket/Magician. Although Talonflame is a little silly in AAA.

Edit: Okay, I didn't want to double post, so this is my next post:

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/almostanyability-173832447
Wow. Just, wow. My Hawlucha team FINALLY lost. Death to balanced sun. What a war story!
Edit: And again...
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/tiershift-173903967
Really? Linnoone? And SPINDA. Really.
