Who the fuck gets swept by a mamoswine!??

That 2nd battle was bad. Especially the Volcarona and Forretress. There isn't a single reason Volc shouldn't ohko Forry. And for that reason, it makes my Volc cry.

WTF is with these people and Aguav Berry? I can't think of a single reason to use that over Sitrus Berry (which is iffy on most sets anyway).

And hey, Mamo is legit. But that battle would have gone a lot faster if that Conk had Drain Punch.

Er... he forfeited right away. Not sure what to say about this.
 
The opposing Hitmontop used Foresight!(well, it helped to remove stealth rocks >_>)
Trevenant was identified!

----------------------------

The opposing Trevenant ate its Salac Berry!
The Salac Berry raised the opposing Trevenant's Speed!

---------------------------

The opposing Sylveon used Swift!
Trevenant lost 21.7% of its health!

All in one battle.

EDIT: Just saw an Overcoat Forretress....

Swoobat sweep. 2 words that shouldn't coexist in a sentence.

Any player who gets swept by Pokemon that are garbage outside of NU/RU/UU (The last for some) probably don't know that they could've used a certain mon to kill the sweeper/setup pass mon. (The Cinccino sweep from a recent post could've been prevented if he lead with Charizard instead of DRAGONAIR to kill the Scolipede)
 
Couldn't find any aguav berries this time but...

Something else I noticed with that 2nd one:

Synchronize Alakazam
Continuing to use Outrage vs. Klefki

Cinccino sweep. Nuff said.(although the DRAGONAIR gets a mention)

I Kinda get what that first set was for (boosting the power of Stored Power), though it was still silly.

That second guy though with the Honedge, did he even EV his pokemon? Why is a Charizard (that is obviously not choiced) outspeeding Greninja? Also none of those sets make sense at all.

Foresight is on Hitmontop's analysis. Besides, Overcoat on Forretress is not a bad ability. It has an niche of "Hazard Setter and Spinner that is not vulnerable to Spore." On most occasion, though, it's better for you if you use Sturdy....

So im thinking-"hey this guy has fantastic prediction skills" and then turn 8 happens.

Too many silly things to count. But the aguav berry sticks out. Like why? I never even picked those berries ingame. Thats how terrible they are.
http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/pokebankoubeta-72027477
Ummm....this battle was terrible on purpose right?

Tyranitar with Focus Blast, lolz/
 
O_O whoa that is a bad battle. How the hell did he get so high on the ladder? And i have this theory that noobs just don't have the patience to go through the list of items so they pick something that starts from A

For some reason, I want to run an Air Balloon Rotom-W and call it "fuck Mold Breaker"!

When I was a n00b in early August, I remember Earthquaking Rotoms and Hydreigons a few times. I knew Latias and Latios cannot be EQed though.
