I used this paraspam team to climb the last ~8 battles of the 1700 run and for all games on this winstreak challenge. Feel free to try it out. Things that can be changed: slide/lefties/sublefties hera, 4atk lax. I've won several cune/milo endgames subspamming on paralyzed waters.
 
Hi I'm going to try to submit this for Not So Weak (and I suppose Surgical Strike too): https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-1764209165-w6z3bp62hesakb63f7zqunwpjms63nupw

ik my opp ff'd early even after I asked them not to, and so technically they could have a skarm which could live +6 hp rock and phaze me, but considering they never went to it over the course of 10 turns, I'm assuming they don't have it (marowak 1 shots every other mon in the tier even with 0 evs). I personally think that's reasonable to assume of a 1400 player, but the mods obviously have the final say. Here's proof I own the account BKC after midnight:

Also, I got the highscore for the guts achievement but the leaderboard was never updated. My account has decayed since then, but you can see in the screenshot I posted at the time that I was 1575 elo

johnny edit: done

Yeah this is fine imo for not so weak, for both (EDIT: I thought we had to go in w 3 or less but previous were allowed w only showing 3 so its all good). Apologies for not updating, I must have missed it. I’ll do it now

Silver Spirit with Psychic under "Focus Miss Cleo." I'm gonna go for gold later but I need to retool the team. I'm currently wasting a team slot on Haze Zatu so I don't get steamrolled by Ninjask spam, which hopefully won't be a problem in higher ladder

It is with the upmost pleasure that I, I Click Things, announce my claim for not just the Bronze Brave medallion, but also the Bronze Knowledge achievement. For I have placed within the top 100 of the World on the ADV OU ladder with a rating that surpasses the 1500 elo mark.

I have returned somewhat victorious from my arduous journey to what some call 'the Depths of Human Depravity', aka the Ladder Experience. I overcame plenty trials and tribulations, sometimes I even wondered if I would ever see the end of this seemingly endless perdition. Thoughts that are unbecoming an upstanding law-abiding citizen, such as myself, would sometimes enter the dark hallways of my mind; prompting me to denigrate and defame, to slander and slight my opponent, solely because he got the best of me in a battle of wits. Dear reader, I did not give in to these temptations and neither should you. It is because of my reticence that I am able to converse with you with my head held high.
With my maidenhood still very much in tact I have returned semi-triumphantly. After all, being ranked 67 on the entire planet, while not the greatest position to have ever been achieved, is still nothing to scoff at; at least, this is the humble opinion I hold.

I was able to sometimes best some of the well-known high-ranking fiends that one often stumbles across in that desolate place. Some, however, eluded my average skills; others still beat me down until I was contemplating throwing in the towel definitively.

The teams I used near the end of the run were the following:
https://pokepast.es/abdd30c414ff3784 (I saw someone use something similar (corrigendum: the brilliant mind that originally came up with this team has revealed himself to be Smurf. May they write songs of his unrivalled artistry), the gengar set I borrowed from Cdijk16)
https://pokepast.es/95a9fa2d9f383023 (Kalaveet's team)
https://pokepast.es/66abcd799b70b05b
https://pokepast.es/9bdf9fe6eaa1f102 (both M Dragon (I gave p2 hp fight), I stopped using these in view of the fact that I was getting body blasted by snorlax)

A replay of the first team, which was my favorite:
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-1814645520-dkjz49u8yosn36jqw7odspvb9omn5k9pw

You will notice that I mainly use teams that include 'sub-optimal' picks. "Why?", an innocent soul such as yours might ponder. Because I like the funny looking seahorse; additionally, I always grin when I imagine raikou attempting to eat something with those comically large fangs.

I have been playing since last year, but never made an account. This joyous occasion spurred me to create one however, so that I can claim my page in the history books. It also provides for an opportunity to share this truly glorious occurrence; consequently letting my fellow man/woman bask in my biblical radiance.
Some of you will have definitely played against me; chances are you won, as I Click Things (haha get it) and I Click them fast with little regard or thought put into them aside from a vague hunch.

I will now take my leave, for the ladder is once again calling my name; beckoning, tempting me to return. Seducing me with promises of reaching even greater heights, and achieving even greater victories. I realize very well that at the summit of this very ladder that we all so desperately want to be a part of, there is nothing but perpetual stress and not a single woman to impress. Alas, I cannot help it; the infinite amount of sorrow and tears will be my tomb, and my foolishness shall be my legacy.

With that I must bid you farewell, and beg you to pray for my safe return so that we may once more chat together.

Nihil lacrima citius arescit

1500 elo and top 100:
