not to burst your bubble, but I find that the teams of legends are generally the easiest to beat. They are almost always poorly natured and iv'd and have been thrown together with little thought for team balance by those with no knowledge at all of competitive battling.

For example, this lunchtime I 5-0'd a typical example of Palgia, Dialga, Genesect, Keldeo, Meloetta and Articuno (the fact that the last two aren't even OU is also pretty typical). The single pokemon I lost was even down to excessive confusion hax. Other than that, there was no challenge at all.

I far more fear/relish the sight of an obviously well thought through and balanced OU team. It means a proper fight is coming.

Of course, you do sometimes get a proper ubers team comprising 6 obviously hacked flawless legendaries. But this is incredibly rare.

Of COURSE I know the guy I faced was a noob. This is the kind of shit I face in Ubers all the damn time. As if the name didn't give it away. If that didn't, then using Dragon moves on a team with NO DRAGON TYPES would also be quite stupid (Especailly on a Fairy/Steel)
Not saying that teams full of Ubers CAN'T work (I can make a decent Ubers team right now if I wanted) but most of the time... No :/

+6 252+ Atk Choice Band Pure Power Aggron Brick Break vs. -6 0 HP / 0- Def Dry Skin Talonflame on a critical hit: 42570300-50082708 (4257030000 - 5008270800%) -- guaranteed OHKO
that aggron let you live....
 
Not sure if troll, or just..... an idiot.

Probably the best part was the Fire Blast burn on Cloyster, while I was expecting Razor Shell.... but nope.

Edit: If you're wondering what happened at the end, my browser was being dumb and lagged out. Also. Victini has 8 Speed EVs.

On cartridge all legendaries have screwd up EVs IVs and nature so it's extremely easy to win. except when they are extremely lucky(this seems to be common)
Most of the time the pokemons don't even have itens, even Aguav berry would be better than that
I battled once a team of only legendaries on cartridge and... well, I lost because the guy used Ice beam on my chansey and it was frozen for about 15 turns when it got koed
the guy also used Darkrai which destroyed my team because I didn't had any special wall or cleric... (who cares about sleep clause?)
The other legendaries were all useless though

The most dangerous of all legendaries owned by noobs is Darkrai because no sleep clause. So they're free to spam their fast Dark Voids and Nightmares. I went to equipping a Lum Berry to my Hydreigon. My Hydreigon goes faster than like 50% of the noobish Darkrais and can at least 2HKO them with Outrage. If I get put to sleep, I have my Lum Berry. If I get put to sleep the second turn, I attempt to wait the sleep out because no Darkrais I encountered (including my own) have Focus Blast.

The only reason Insomnia doesn't suck in Wifi battles.
 
I have a combination of scarfed natural cure Roserade, which leaf storms the fuck out of the Drarkrai before it can respond, and Tyranitar, which takes very little damage from Darkrai and cannot be dream eaten and bashes it when it wakes up.

A way of handling Darkrai s the first thing you need if battling on WiFi.
 
All these people talking about cartridge legendaries, thats only the noobs, real people either hack their legendaries or farm till they get the right nature, in gen6 legendaries are guaranteed to have 3 ivs at 31, so it doesnt take as long to farm, or long at all if you have somehting with synchronize

Slash "farmed" with "hacked" if you like.

I'd like to know why the heck does this guy keep switching without using baton pass and always losing his boosts
This guy doesn't even know what he's doing, before complaining about hax first you should at least know how to use your team decently

My assumption would be to not lose the current Pokemon. Some of the attacks (ex - Shadow Sneak on Espeon) would be KOs and he'd lose the boosts either way. At least this way he can keep the Pokemon he was switching out.

Some of them, but most of them the oponnent wouldn't outspeed him so he could switch out using baton pass

Random crap I found:
Iron Head METAL CLAW Bisharp
AVALANCHE BLIZZARD Aura Sphere Mew using all of the attacks against a Froslass
FIRE FANG NORMAL CHARIZARD
GUNK SHOT MEGA BANNETE without WoW(or didn't know when to use it)
Sucker Punch Umbreon, the priority is nice but it only has 60/65 base attack Foul Play is much better
