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

Not open for further replies.
It also takes a bit of knowledge of how to use it. It's broken because with that knowledge you'll win 99 times out of 100. The problem is if you have no idea how it works, then you're going to fail.
If you read the thread from last month, you'll find posts of people that never played OU before getting high ladder rankings really fast, people who taught their younger siblings how to use it after like half an hour of explanation, and other stupid shit.

Also, just because you have to know how something works doesn't make it less broken. Mega Gengar requires some skill to use right and is easily one of the most broken Pokemon to ever be made.

Yup. But I'm making fun of some of the low ladder people by saying they're even more stupid that they just think that they can take a Copy-Paste team and then proceed to just muck up so badly. :P

Random Shit volume 120: 400th Post Edition
-Sawk.
-Togekiss using Thunder Wave on Garchomp. This may seem like a simple mispredict at first, but this was a lead, and 99% of such Garchomps lead with rocks.
-Keeping Houndoom in on a +2 X-zard (and eating an EQ for your troubles).
-Later in the battle, said Charizard used EQ on a Ferrothorn instead of Flare Blitz. It then got paralyzed.
-Regigigas. With Mega Punch as its STAB.
-Accelgor.
-Fairy Lock Klefki (which isn't horrible, but I think it has better things to do).
-Iron Defense Cofagrigus. Not helpful against Galvantula, which it used it against.
-LO Infernape OHKO'ing a Slowking with a crit Fire Punch. That means the Slowking probably had no physical bulk whatsoever.
-I have no words for this one: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124173225
-Interesting... http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124170865
-Swords Dance+U-turn Talonflame.
-Normal Ampharos.
-Tangela.
-Gourgeist-Large.
-Toxic Orb+Acrobatics Gliscor, apparently without Fling.
-Said Tangela and Gourgeist being on a mono grass team that 6-0'ed an otherwise ordinary OU team including said Gliscor.
-Hyper Voice+Hyper Beam M-Gardevoir.
-Bellossom.
-Sliggoo.
-Bulk Up+Hyper Beam Machamp.
-Amnesia+Berry Juice Nidoking.
-Non-mega Absol. Seriously, don't.
-Critdra with Dragon Pulse and Signal Beam.
-Dark Pulse+Air Slash Mandibuzz.
-Attract Sableye. It worked, but didn't trigger.
-Among other things, non-scarfed Ditto being a good thing for its user: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124172549
 
-LO Infernape OHKO'ing a Slowking with a crit Fire Punch. That means the Slowking probably had no physical bulk whatsoever.
252+ Atk Life Orb Blaze Infernape Fire Punch vs. 0 HP / 0- Def Slowking on a critical hit: 226-265 (68.2 - 80%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
(226, 227, 230, 234, 235, 238, 242, 244, 246, 250, 252, 255, 257, 260, 263, 265)

This is with 31 IVs for both HP and Defense. If you make them 0s, though...

252+ Atk Life Orb Blaze Infernape Fire Punch vs. 0 HP / 0- Def Slowking on a critical hit: 268-316 (89.3 - 105.3%) -- 31.3% chance to OHKO
(268, 270, 273, 277, 281, 283, 286, 290, 292, 296, 299, 303, 305, 308, 312, 316)

That's pretty dumb. You literally have to give Slowking the worst possible Defense to make that work. Iron Fist Infernape can never OHKO, by the way (well, unboosted).
 
Sun/Hail team:

Ninetales/Castform/Froslass/Glaceon/Electivire/Cloyster

Cloyster is the lead, spams Toxic Spikes and uses Rapid Spin and Rock Blast.
Castform has Hail, Weather Ball, Flamethrower.
Glaceon comes in the hail to spam Blizzard. Also has Mirror Coat and Detect.
No idea on Froslass, she didn't survive enough to attack.
Ninetales comes in on my Gengar who is behind a Substitute takes a Shadow Ball, and tries to use Substitute himself. Fails as its HP is already below 25%.
Finally, the icing. Electrivire comes in the sun to spam... Thunder.

Meditite, please use Force Palm on my face.
 
machamp using dual chop on my celebi. If you are wondering why he didn't switch, his team was machamp/hitmonchan/hitmonlee/sawk/throh/conkledurr
 
13th Round of silly replays: Haxxy Edition
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124223580
Team A:
  • Worry Seed Whimsicott.
  • Extrasensory Togekiss. You already have Air Slash for Fighting-types, Mega Venusaur and Scolipede, what are you trying to hit with this?
  • Rock Tomb Mega Garchomp. Maybe because of its 92 base Speed?
  • Water Shuriken Greninja.
Team B: Gen 2 Genwunner here?
  • Noctowl.
  • Mirror Coat Mantine.
  • Girafarig.
  • Meganium.
  • Stantler.
  • And the only Pokémon viable in OU in this team, White Herb Heracross!
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124226216
Team A:
  • Golem. I'd use Rock Polish with Weakness Policy though.
  • Flygon.
  • Hitmontop.
Team B:
  • Samurott.
  • Pyroar (not sent out).
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124230001
Team A:
  • Thunder Starmie outside of rain.
  • Muddy Water Quagsire. At least this move doesn't have a status which ruins its gimmicky SubYawn strategy.
  • Attract + Confuse Ray Trevenant. Useless on females, though.
  • Toxicroak outside of rain.
  • Walrein. Now obsolete in OU, even with Abomasnow.
Team B:
  • Counter Weavile.
  • Bulk Up Lucario, who tried to break Quagsire's sub with Bullet Punch.
  • Electivire.
BONUS: Ubers replay
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ubers-124232772
Team A:
  • Flamethrower + Flare Blitz Infernape.
  • Drapion.
  • Non-Mega Aggron.
  • Power-Up Punch Mega Lucario.
  • Sky Uppercut Gliscor.
Team B: Full of gimmicks.
  • Taunt Mega Absol. It already has Magic Bounce for most status moves.
  • Level 2 Cottonee. Its optimum efficiency is at level 1, though. Paired with...
  • ...its brother Level 2 Whimsicott.
  • FEAR Level 1 Rattata.
  • Minimize Drifblim.
  • Level 1 Magnemite.
 
This time in randbats...
I'm down to my Sunflora, Toxic'd Baloon Infernape, and Shiftry.
He has arcanine out, M-Pinsir waiting in the wings, and an unrevealed poke.
Rocks are up on both sides.
I leech seed him, and he stays in, spamming ExtremeSpeed, letting me get him down to 27%.
Shiftry Dark Pulses him, and then gets taken out by M-Pinsir, getting him down to 1%.
I kill him with Mach Punch. He sends out his Sandslash. Then his Stone Edge misses twice in a row, I Grass Knot him 3 times, and win.
 
I just can't stop laughing from this xD
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-124259589

The first turn was silly from my part, keeping Thundurus-I on his Mamoswine e.e, maybe not so silly because of a possible Stealth Rock and i could've Taunted him, anyway, but what happened next was just hilarious. This guy kept using Earthquake on my Mega Charizard X... except that i didn't mega evolve and got 4 free boosts before he ragequitted. What makes it more hilarious is that i gave him a hint that i was going to get a few more boosts even if i already was at +2. xD
