Well then shit, because I use an IPad with safari.

Any way to get it with using Safari?


EDIT: I forgot to mention earlier I saw a Fly/Toxic/Protect/???? Golurk in OU as the guy's SOLE Pokemon. It used all 3 moves against my Aegislash.
... People these days...

Whenever I play OU, some of the funniest shit comes up:
- Harden Pound Charm Sleep Powder Smeargle (Found this one really recently.)
- Earthquake, Zen Headbutt, Return, and Drain Punch on Chansey (with a life orb)
- Assault Vest Sharpedo
- and last but not least, Choice Specs Hyper Beam Cinccino.





Did I mention all of these Pokemon were on the same team?

That is just tooo ridiculous! That person must be mental or something.
 
I swear, these are the first three ranked matches I've randomly chosen on the ladder.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106007885
  • FEAR Aron in the sand team. It has never been used because of an Excadrill sweep.
  • Turn 2

    Talonflame used Flare Blitz!
    It's super effective! The opposing Skarmory held on thanks to Sturdy!
    The opposing Skarmory lost 99.6% of its health!
    Talonflame is damaged by recoil!
    The opposing Skarmory ate its Salac Berry!
    The Salac Berry raised the opposing Skarmory's Speed!

    The opposing Skarmory used Spikes!
    Spikes were scattered all around the feet of your team!

    Yes, Salac Berry Skarmory. Why not Lefties or Rocky Helmet? Too mainstream?

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106008563
  • Toxic Orb Ambipom with Toxic. I don't know if it had Fling too. Ambipom itself is terrible in OU.
  • Leftovers Dusclops. Where is that damn Eviolite? Same case as Ambipom.
  • Acrobatics Talonflame. Could work with Natural Gift, but I didn't see the latter.
  • X-Scissor Scolipede. Because Megahorn isn't accurate enough?
  • Poor Life Orb Heracross, it didn't have the chance to pull off a SD. Even freaking Terrakion is better in this role.
  • Acid Armor Reuniclus.
  • Said Reuniclus managed to beat both Mega Heracross and Scolipede. Misclick or lack of Pin Missile?

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106008252
Can be summarized in this:
Turn 1

Cloyster used Icicle Spear!
The opposing Clefable lost 10.7% of its health!
The opposing Clefable lost 10.9% of its health!
Hit 2 times!

The opposing Clefable used Attract!
Cloyster fell in love!

Also the team with Cloyster has four Pokémon.

If Dusclops carries an Eviolite, it can become an extremely bulky pokemon in OU, and peforms decently there.
Everything Else is crap.
Also, Smeargle totally has this: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106019324
 
I've seen multiple accounts of Chansey using moves like Drain Punch and Zen Headbutt here, and for the life of me, I can't understand why.

I mean, it's one thing if you're new to the competitive scene and you haven't figured out what's viable and what isn't, but it takes a very special kind of stupid to give physical attacking moves to the Pokemon with the worst attack stat in the entire game.

Surprisingly I was almost taken out in the HGSS Battle Tower by a Sing/Focus Punch/Softboiled/(I forget what the move was...probably something like Minimize) Chansey. I was down to my Empoleon and, as per the norm, Chansey stood up to his assaults. She would then Sing my Empoleon to sleep and Focus Punch it which took out...a decent amount of health. I did have Leftovers on my Empoleon so I was fine, but every time I would deal a decent amount of damage, she would Softboil it away and proceed to Sing/Focus Punch me

I literally PP stalled that Chansey to death. An Empoleon. PP stalled. A Chansey. There's no part of that sentence that actually makes any sense.

Quick Claw Armaldo.
It activated twice during the battle, preventing Skarm from roosting back and setting more hazards. Still didn't prevent him from being swept by Dragonite.
BTW I switched to Ditto because I thought Ice Fang.



In a different match:
Non-mega Charizard outside of a sun team
Said Charizard had Flamethrower, Earthquake, Brick Break, and I forget the fourth move.
"The opposing Alakazam traced Ditto's Blaze!"
Said Ditto outsped a Jolteon, then a Gengar. The equivalent of a +1 Charizard outspeeding a Jolteon.
Allowing me to plow through half his team with said Ditto before taking it out with Scizor's Bullet Punch. Thanks to Blaze, no less, as I was at 25%. The Scizor fainted from Life Orb recoil, but took out Ditto. The first thing you send out against the opponent's weakened scarfer should be something with priority.

Choice Scarf Dragonite spamming Waterfall, "because now it outspeeds and hits the hacked Air Balloon Flash Fire Excadrill really well." Funny thing was it actually took out my Excadrill (Air Balloon!!!) lol.

Weavile with Dark Pulse, and I think it was scarfed too.

Staraptor with Brave Bird, Close Combat, HP Ghost, and Quick Attack. Not as silly as the others, but still worth mentioning lol.

+1 Charizard outspeeds Jolteon normally, so that's nothing out of the ordinary. In fact, a +1 base 100 like Zard will outspeed every unboosted thing except Deoxys-S.

While I'm at it, Random Shit volume 74: RU Ready Edition
-Tropius.
-A Sableye without Prankster.
-All sorts of stupid things, including Flame Charge under Trick Room: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106151296
-Dragonite with both Dragon Claw and Dragon Rush. Such great coverage (but not as good as the Kyurem-B in the above replay).
-Octillery.
-UU (at best) team 6-0'ing an OU team: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106150569
-And the guy with the Plusle wins: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106150580
-No explanation needed. Nor can I think of one: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106152477
-Amoonguss using Spore on Gliscor.
-Eeveelutions vs. a bad team of water starters: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/oususpecttest-106150421
-Not sure why people still run special attacks on Trevenant.
-Beartic.
-Counter Skarmory. At least it did its job (taking out TF). But later, it used it on Aegislash.
-Aegislash with, of all things, a Fist Plate.
-M-Venusaur with both Energy Ball and Solarbeam.
-I saw a Heracross using Rock Blast. At first, I thought, "Maybe he's getting a Moxie boost before going mega." Turns out, neither happened.
-Pelipper.
