Unaware Calm Mind is a thing, apparantly. Since you ignore your opponent's stat boost you can set up against stuff that's maxed out their attack AND you can screw over Baton Pass teams.
The silly thing is using Belly Drum against the obviously (because rocks happened) Unaware Clefable.
Not trying to say anything but I think your profile pic has some meaning
Was it a charizard-Y?
FRIGGIN HELL THAT DURANT IS AN INSULT TO MY FAVOURITE BUGthis isn't even half of what I've seen so far

yes it has but some people actually play this for pure fun , its not always about laddering and ranking up, i got some very good wins with off stat teams
besides i saw way worse crap than specs scizor on the OU ladder
I was testing a new team on the ladder, and this is what I found:

I was using Unfezant and White Herb Bisharp(never sent it out), but my opponent's team was far weirder. Oh, and I was ZYENOOT:).

I remember getting a Virizion with Swords Dance, Giga Drain, Protect and Substitute >.>
The opposing Tyrantrum used Dragon Dance!
The opposing Tyrantrum's Attack rose!
The opposing Tyrantrum's Speed rose!
Deoxys-Defense used Knock Off!
The opposing Tyrantrum lost 16.3% of its health!
Deoxys-Defense knocked off the opposing Tyrantrum's Choice Scarf!
The sandstorm rages.
Wh-wh-what?
He forfeited before he brought it in but I think it was. Even then, it's a weird choice...
lol "what do you mean using moxie and flame orb doesnt combine the two abilities?"
The person in question used Flame Orb on a Gut-less Heracross, which halves its own attack, even though it would have been a legit item on one with Guts because Guts negate the attack drop from burn. Ok I shall rephrase the previous one.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-106903014 Meet the new meta, Idk How I beat this guy I was just messing about with a team, this was like 1500 rating....
I've seen Air Balloon fan Rotom several times on randoms. Because screw ground moves, amirite?
I also got stuck with a physical Hypno once. Dude freakin' carried, too; even I yelled in the chat, "WHY THE FRICK IS THIS HYPNO SO TANKY!?"
Hypno actually gets Belly Drum, but even then it's not that great, unless you can somehow pull it off and survive without getting killed by faster Pokemon/priority moves.
I should have clarified this was also in randbats, since the person I was responding to was talking about them.
Hypno being such a boss probably had to do with it having level advantage over other Pokemon; in randbats, powerful Pokemon get their levels adjusted downward, so getting stuck with a Hypno or some other RU/NU-tier Pokemon isn't an instant 5v6 and scoring a Groudon or something isn't a guaranteed win.
A level 70 Groudon is still better than a level 86 Chimeco or something.
I completely agree, all I was saying was that Hypno is not amazing, but he is still a decent Pokemon. I am familiar with randbats, I've done quite a few myself, so I get what you mean. I've used it before, and it is pretty nice to have sometimes. :)
