This might have been I.
Had such a team with landorusT and xatu in gen 5 and since it listed 1st slot in my OU team list, I d quite often go into battle accidentally with this, forgetting to select another team.
Since Lando-T and Xatu were on that team, it very well could have been. Either that, or someone else stole it.

Spot the odd one out on both sides.
 
Not particularly OU, or at all, but before I tried to run a Smeargle.

With the 3 4th gen legendaries signature moves. I was convinced it'd work and I'd destroy everybody.

What was I smoking?
 
...Just saw a Cacturne.

More things:

Keeping Azumarill against Gourgeist (after being burned and Leech Seeded).
Mega Ampharos using Signal Beam on... Klefki.
Non-Mega Charizard (without sun, of course).

Pokemon Sinnoh saga: Showdown Edition

I dunno, the only ones who aren't really OU material are Lax and Pika (maybe Staraptor, but he was a beast in gen IV so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt) so depending on the sets it could be a decent team at the least.

Anyway, not entirely sure if this counts, but it seemed extremely silly to me forfeiting because I paralyzed a Cloyster http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-93145404

Staraptor is seeing a fairly impressive resurgence in popularity, even in OU, from what I understand. Staraptor and Talonflame work well together because Staraptor can often kamikaze and take down Talonflame's counters, leaving Talonflame on the loose.

Not sure about Snorlax, though I know that it's taking the release of Assault Vest fairly well. It can take some beastly Special hits and swap blows fairly well with its own 110 base attack.

252+ SpA Adaptability Mega Lucario Aura Sphere vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Assault Vest Snorlax: 248-296 (47.3 - 56.4%) -- 84.8% chance to 2HKO
