Other Silly Things You've Seen On The OU Ladder: V2

So the fact that I came across a two-mon team consisting of Ambipom and Porygon2 is pretty strange in itself... but what's really strange is that I found this team in the mid- 1400s on the OU ladder.

How the hell did he get that high?
Just because he had 2 mons in his team doesn't mean he did all his battles with those two mons. I once got bored and Yolod around 10 matches with a SwagPlay Klefki alone on my team.
 
This Regigigas is clearly the sign of things to come. Didn't get to see the rest of those sets unfortunately; the other guy forfeited while I was taking this picture.

Sometime after taking the above picture, I ran into the silliest match I've had thus far.

Thank you for not being like most of the other set check people and obnoxiously posting them during the battle while laughing
 
Say what you want about Sandshrew but he took a non resisted earthquake from a mega Garchomp.

Well, that was an uninvested Garchomp, and:

4 Atk Mega Garchomp Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Sandshrew: 103-123 (33.8 - 40.4%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

So, maybe he was running an offensive spread. Let's try:

4 Atk Mega Garchomp Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Eviolite Sandshrew: 154-183 (63.9 - 75.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Which means he was running it without Eviolite.

-Focus Sash Greninja... okay?
-Rock Climb Excadrill... what the hell?
-Focus Sash Cloyster. I'll admit that it caught me off guard at first, but... what the fuck?
-Earthquake Conkeldurr. What, exactly, are you hitting with that? Delphox?
spoilers: it already gets knock off

Focus sash is one of, if not the, most common item on cloyster, allowing it to get off a free shell smash. Sash greninja somewhat makes sense, so you can actually take a hit with those paper-thin defenses (admittedly, life orb is miles better, but still.)

That would actually be a pretty valid excuse if the Cloyster in question actually used Shell Smash (nevermind the fact that Cloyster has 180 base defense). I seriously can't stand when people decide to put a Sash on random things just so they can take a hit, especially in the case of Greninja, which has much better items to be holding, such as Life Orb as you listed.
