Face Palm Battle Moments?

L E A V E1

Eh, I have noticed some really stupid moves that I have made in the last week, so I wanted to see if you have seen, faced, or made some yourself. Here is my highlight moment.

Ninjask was sent out on my azelf. The match was set, and an X-Scizzor couldn't hit me, so, I flamethrowered...well, after about 3 speed boosts, and 3 turns of worthless flamethrowers, my opponent baton passed into his scizzor, which was OHKOd easily by flamethrower. I giggled, and won 6-0 xD.

How about you guys, any good funny moments you have experienced?
 
Well I set up a Sub with my Lapras on the switch. They than proceeded with a Hypnosis...

Then that same person (Different battle) used Thunderwave on me while I had my Sub up...
._.
 
Someone used Megahorn on my Gengar (and I didn't even switch Gengar in that turn) with Heracross and left it in to get 2HKO'd.
 
I was playing Battle Tower and I got OHKO'd by a Hippowdon Fissue and then OHKO by a Gliscor Guillotine twice. =(


EDIT: I should mention that all three moves hit the first time and on the first turn so I had no idea about Fissure or Guillotine (I knew of the second Guillotine but it was hopeless by that point).
 
Some time ago on NetBattle, I was nearly sweeping the opposing team with my Gardevoir, and the only thing standing in my way was a Snorlax. After two or three Psychics, Snorlax was with just 9% HP. HOWEVER, instead of just choosing Psychic again, I chose Ice Punch, as he could switch to save his Snorlax (obviously, he didn't do that before but would do now) and send out a counter. There would be no problem, as Netbattle's damage calculator said Ice Punch would do 15-16% damage.

...

But I forgot Snorlax has Immunity. He survived with ONE HP, killed Gardevoir with Shadow Ball and after that, a Heracross with Reversal killed me.
 
When I use my bp team, so many people use roar and whirlwind over and over again thinking, hey, maybe this time it won't fail against ingrain! those roots run too deep, guys
 
I never had this problem on Netbattle, but on Shoddy I have made a habit of accidentally switching when I was supposed to Baton Pass. I feel like a right twat when all those stat ups go to waste. :x
 
Ugh. Among the past months, there've been a few that haven't been GLARING, but the worst one i ever had was when in the first round of the shoddybattle tournament in my match with Futuresuperstar, for some reason, my dumbass switched Machamp into a flying attack, from some flying pokemon.

Obviously, i thought i'd have a free switch, then a turn to ice punch or something dumb.

ugh.
 
I recall one time having a Bronzong out against a Garchomp, who then proceeded to use Earthquake. Twice.

Also, I seem to have this odd habit of leaving my Weavile in against a Togekiss and use Swords Dance, forgetting that it can, and usually does, carry Aura Sphere.

Also, one time when I had a paralyzed Spiritomb out against a Blissey, it kept trying to use Thunder Wave on me while I gleefully CM'd up. Even after being fully paralyzed a few times it still insisted on Thunder Wave...
 
When I played UU alot of poeple have tried to Hypnosis my Hypno about 3-4 times before realising it has Imsonia.As for my mistakes, I switched a Forretress into a Chain Chomp.

I giggled there. Battle Tower?

Speaking of BT, a snorlax I was facing, it was his last pokemon, at 100%, and I had a Starmie with about 10%, at the....29th battle or something, and he used curse, then defence curl, and then curse twice more and I killed it to move onto a 54 win streak...epic fail.

ugh I used to do this all the timel, especially back in ADV

The absolutie worst is when I used to accidentally leave Gengar or something in on Dugtrio because I forgot Levitate let him escape Arena Trap, and pretty much threw away a perfectly good Gengar

It's pretty funny when people switch Bronzong into a Rampardos Earthquake and freaking out when they get hit, saying they forgot to change their Bronzong's ability
 
The other day when i was battling some guy that had a Dragonite with Thunderbolt and i had my Blastoise out and he kept Thunderbolthing it and i completely forgot i had Electivire in my team ._.

No actually, It was against the user xD-twist today. He later used an ambipom with quick attack (LOL) and swords dance (LMAO) and.... well just lok at his sig now :D
 
Someone I played used Aqua Tail on my Empoleon, then I use S-Rock, he then uses Ice Fang, then I use Ice Beam, 4 times later he is STILL using Ice Fang, he THEN switches xD
 
A LOT of people forget/don't notice Gravity.

I use Gravity, they do whatever. I switch to chomp. They bring in/leave in a flier/levitator and get wailed on by EQ. I laugh so hard. Or, another good one, I pull off 3-4 consecutive fire blasts or dragon rushes: "Accuracy hax!1111". Higravity

While playing on Shoddy, I put Snore on my Breloom instead of Spore.

Why would you want to keep on using Ice Beam without switching out Empoleon yourself? O_o

BTW, hai LordAce. =)

LMAO that's pretty funny.

I think the worst was back in netbattle when I would quickly put together a team that I used to use and forget to change the hidden powers from Dark to their corresponding types. However, I did manage to OHKO a Gengar with Hidden Power Dark from my Sunny Day Exeggutor.
 
Once I put Hyper Beam instead of Ice Beam on Blissey. And somehow, it actually saved my ass. o.O;

There's a couple of times I messed up with movesets, so that was basically it.

Other than that, I don't think there were too many face palm moments. Well, except the one time I saw Giga Impact Articuno. I laughed my ass off on that one. I guess also the fact that my MixMence somehow OHKO'd a Blissey. >_>
 
So I'm battling this kid w/ my Ninjask...

He gives me 2 turns of speed boosts (+ substitute), then on the third turn decides to use Fly on Pidgeot, so I decide to Sword Dance. After 4 speed boosts and 1 attack boost, I Baton Pass to my Life Orbed Electivire and then proceeds get swept by it 6-0, calling it an "OVERLY UBER POGEYMANZ!!!!!!" afterwards. He also complained that Substitute should be an illegal move. <_<
