Physical Thundurus isn't that bad. Actually, catches your opponents off guard.

(Thundurus) (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature
- Sky Drop
- Knock Off
- Superpower
- Wild Charge

The set there looks bait to Life Orb Greninja. Meaning that one can easily revenge kill this thing if someone manages to have Sticky Web or Tailwind support.

Bisharp's special defense is lower than its defense by quite a bit, It would be better to do a poke with the same defenses, like Mew

252 SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Landorus Earth Power vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Mew: 181-214 (44.8 - 52.9%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

252 Atk Life Orb Sand Force Landorus Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252 Def Mew in Sand: 212-251 (52.4 - 62.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after sandstorm damage and Leftovers recovery

Why would someone use Mew in OU, IMO? Let's say if one predicted the switch and went for U-Turn instead of Earth Power/Earthquake. It would still do the same damage to Earth Power:
0 Atk Life Orb Landorus U-turn vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Mew: 159-187 (39.3 - 46.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

Speaking of Mew:

-Fake Out Mew. That had Focus Sash.

Thats not the point, Mew was an example, I could have done Aegislash and the same thing would have happened, I was picking a Pokemon with equal defenses and Mew was the first one that popped up in my head

And my point is that, Physical Landorus is silly IMO.
I prefer Special Landorus.
 
Ok, I was testing a Gravity Lando-I and Sticky Web team on an alt, and right out of the gate, I fought someone with:

Non-Mega Venusaur (no Chlorophyll either) with Energy Ball?
Non-Mega Blastoise with Aqua Tail and Bubble
Non-Mega Aerodactyl with Dragon Pulse
Infernape with Scratch and Fury Swipes (Got swiftly 2HKOd by Galvantula)
The second to last team member seemed normal, but, here's the real kicker:

Mega Charizard X
-Growl
-Hone Claws
-Roost
-DRAGON RAGE

I feel bad for losing ONE Pokemon to this guy (Kyurem Black = #neverforget)

Why wouldn't someone use Mew? It can run all sorts of decent, viable sets with its massive movepool. Keep in mind, this is the same thread where people are posting things like Twitch Plays Pokemon teams and Hyper Beam Blissey.

This man was using hidden power gliscor
In OU
Click to expand...
0 SpA Gliscor Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Gliscor: 120-144 (33.8 - 40.6%) -- 99.9% chance to 4HKO after Poison Heal
Wow. That's pretty terrible. I can't imagine any situation when HP would be useful.

The guy was in the 1300/1400's i think which makes it even funnier

Ubers, but it's pretty bad... Featuring:
  • Dragon Claw Tyranitar
  • Non-Mega Charizard
  • Non-Mega Lucario that used Blaze Kick in the rain on my Kyogre
  • Non mega Gardevoir
  • Double Edge/Foul Play Mewtwo
  • Special (Blizzard/Dark Pulse) Mega Gyarados
  • Much, much more.
I tried to give him a few tips, like advising him that non-Mega Zard isn't that good, and he said something to the effect of, "But why?" Also called my team "OP"

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ubers-108764454

Featuring the magnificent "DragDrag" Core!
 
Mixed Excadrill with Earth Power / Brick Break / Focus Blast. Swampert with Earthquake / Aqua Tail / Muddy Water / Hydro Pump. And, finally: A Gliscor with leftovers rather than toxic orb. And the opponent toxic'd him. And yes, it WAS poison heal.
