Never really thought if it that way. Then again, it was running Psyshock. & Psychic on the same set. :P

I saw Voltorb then realized it was an all exploding team.

Thats really funny lol but explosion did almost 54% to magneton @_@
Should we really include intentionally stupid teams like this on this thread? This is a very blatant troll
That awkward moment when hax saves you from an unbelievably bad play:

Were any of the deoxys ever uu?...
Gotta outspeed dem chlorophyll jumpluffs tbf.

s and d were uu during the 'initial' period iirc (yeah, the one with kyub... and keldeo... and bisharp...)
Trick Scarf used to be a legit set.... Until prankster Taunt.
Cursed Body Jellicent is one thing. Switching it in on a Scald and blowing your cover? That's just strange. And it let my Crocune sweep his team.
And you and I were arguing about Bisharp being broken....
OT: SD/DD Haxorus. He used SD twice, then DD once. While I had a Florges out. The next turn, he used Brick Break. I kept predicting him to switch, so I Wish'd, Protect, Toxic. Killed with Moonblast.

The guy "randomized" the team to include Choice Specs Noctowl and Eviolite Goldeen. SR + 7 turns later, Krook ate his team...

Trolled with SR/Endeavor/Encore/Mach Punch Infernape.
So funny seeing a guy who got his entire team to 1% because he kept switching ;D

How did you know the Victini was CB? did you knock it off?
Hydro Pump Cloy is usable, maybe he didn't wanna miss so he went for surf?
and reg blastoise isn't so bad, depending on the set.
also furfrou itself could probably go in this thread lol

Saw a guy using Choice Band Alakazam with the elemental punches.

mixed cloyster is actually a legitimate option as you can actually do fun shit like maim a weakened mega aggron (something like 70% aggron is ohko'd by +2 hydro pump) and other physical walls that would otherwise shit on your parade if you ran razor shell.
that said surf is pretty much a bad option imo because mixed cloyster doesnt invest a lot into spa afaik so you need the power.
and furfrou is terrible when you have options like mega aggron and fucking DONPHAN

Ohioisonfire Mixed Cloyster actually lets it get past Mega Aggron who doesn't care for pure physical Cloyster. Hydro Pump vs. Surf comes down to Risk vs. Reward and personal preference.
+2 252 Atk Cloyster Razor Shell vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Mega Aggron: 94-112 (27.3 - 32.5%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
+2 4 SpA Cloyster Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Mega Aggron: 249-294 (72.3 - 85.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
On that note, let me draw your attention to PHYSICAL SCARF PORYGON2: The New Meta (turn 27)
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/uu-147105701
I thought it was mixed attacker with Return (ala Gen 5 and Download), but P2 outsped Chandelure and took almost 55% from Crobat's BB...
I'm calling it now. Scarf P2 to be the top scarfer threat in the tier!
lol

Tbf:
252+ Atk Adaptability Porygon-Z Double-Edge vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Infernape: 274-324 (93.5 - 110.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO after Stealth Rock
252+ SpA Adaptability Porygon-Z Tri Attack vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Infernape: 260-308 (88.7 - 105.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO after Stealth Rock
definitely new meta imo

He said Porygon 2...
+1 252+ Atk Porygon2 Return vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Infernape: 262-310 (89.4 - 105.8%) -- 37.5% chance to OHKO
+1 252+ SpA Porygon2 Tri Attack vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Infernape: 244-288 (83.2 - 98.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Definitely new meta.
And it's kinda funny how you called it a stupid team, yet I'm pretty sure the result would have been different had you not gotten the burn on the Flamethrower, and perhaps the missed Zen Headbutt on Crobat.
And on topic: Eviolite Slowbro. Apparently he thought it evolved into Slowking.
Lol but Porygon Z does it so much better than P2 it's so outclassed
EDIT: Also if you're a scarfer that can't outspeed +1 Haxorus your in for a rough time. This meta has kinda created a benchmark with that.
A Random Scrub that burn stunk, but his donphan wouldve been at 25%, which is easy ko range of crobats BB or hydreigons dp, so no it didnt matter even with the burn.
As for the missed zen headbutt, it was on chandy not crobat. At that point hydreigon wouldve just came in spammed dp or u turn. That P2 mustve been neutral natured and 252 ATK EVS
+1 252 Atk Porygon2 Zen Headbutt vs. 112 HP / 0 Def Chandelure: 103-122 (35.6 - 42.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
It did 38% as you saw in the replay, so thats most likely the spread.
He may have caughr me off guard, but it didnt make a difference at all since he had nothing fast to check hydre and crobat with the exception of bp on guts champ. Plus who runs supporting chestorest kingdra??

On a different subject, I saw a Serene Grace Blissey with Heal Bell, Inferno Telekinesis Victini, and a Chesnaught with Brick Break - all on the same team. I understand the Brick Break Chesnaught and (kinda?) understand the Serene Grace Blissey, but Inferno Victini? Really?
What's even funnier is how long it took me to beat the team.
(Oh, yeah, and there was Infestation Tentacruel. Really)
