Even though this was a dodged game, I find that this would have been interesting. Either team could have both been mono water, or polar opposites with Ground Vs Ice. Although, the possibility is also there for a Water Vs Ground or Water Vs Ice, I find that there was a possibility a decent challenge. The point that I find silly is that the they gave up without finding out. I will always try and win, even if the odds are not in my favor.

Hackmons Cup is a crazy tier...

That's not how Snatch works. And that Celebrate turn 1? Also the stall war between Jellicent and Ferroseed.

That moment when you get a Tinted Lens Archeops with Spore and your opponent forfeits turn 1.

Sketch. And all the negative conditions Pidgeot gets to have.

Hmm...
- Thunder Kyogre
- freaking Rock Polish Registeel
- the chat
- left calling NOCturnal Hunter scrub when he/she's got shitty movesets
- saying standard sets such as u-turn registeel are stupid
And of course these:
★WeepAngel:lol im just going to go ahead and ignore you right now
★WeepAngel:I'm going to go play an actual game now, so you can have fun with whatever psycho movesets you call "good" XD

He wouldn't stop gitting Parahax on his Registeel, which was kinda ruining my plan.
★reNOC: wow...
★reNOC: using twave on a PH mon
He tried to use Thunder Wave on my already poisoned PH Giratina. Does that sound smart?
★reNOC: lol
★WeepAngel: who?
★WeepAngel: is that idiotic
Thinking the saying "lol" is something's name.

Focus Punch/Dynamic Punch/Zen Headbutt/Psychic Sableye (three of them), Blizzard/Megahorn Absol, Hydro Pump Gyarados, so many type chart fails it's ridiculous, and somehow burned Lando-T nearly cleans up. Maybe you might want to swap out one of your Klefki for a Liepard or something.
And you're a Mario & Luigi fan, I see.

If I get it right, AgilityPass to Speed Boost Deoxys-S. GOTTA GO FAST
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-265475604 this wouldn't be on here normally, but that Lapras moment was amazing. This is why i use Surf or Scald usually.
Quadruple Hydro Miss. (And one turn of confusion hax.) You have less than a 1% chance of that happening. Oh, my baby, my poor, poor baby...it wasn't even your fault.
So:
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-265489846
Klefki trying to T-Wave Primal Groudon, Teeter Dance/Dizzy Punch Mega Lopunny, Eruption/Lava Plume Primal Groudon, Rock Tomb Primal Kyogre, and Needle Arm Swagger Cacturn presumably with a King's Rock (turn 17).

Offensive Blissey with DG/Psychic (Psychic/Fairy is an awesome attacking combo; see: Gardevoir, Alakazam) doing all of 12% to Jellicent, who is, admittedly, fairly bulky. Jelly sets up three Acid Armors and starts swinging. Also Shadow Ball Metagross, and Volcarona scores a burn on Alakazam, who literally could not care about that. In fact, that's good--now it can't be paralyzed! A forfeit soon follows.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-265493497
Eeveelution team on the right, Gen 1 squad including Pikachu on the left. Two Magic Bounce fails, Ferro has Ingrain, Ferro does not get the hell out on the obvious Fire move (Flame Charge, which is alright because Guts boost), Sylveon with Draining Kiss who whiffs a WishProtect and goes down, Espeon needlessy foddered, Payback Umbreon puts in work, and Pikachu wins the game. Both players seem to have had fun, at least.

EZ win. This is why people need to read the viability rankings before playing a tier :s

- Fake Out/Ice Punch intimidate MMX.

- Prankster Lugia with a shitload of speed creep added to it.
AnybodyAgrees TI mentioned that someone used Feint Kyube, and that it was probably to counterteam TI. And that first battle you linked, that person would have had Simple Draco Meteor, which is a very bad combination.

Hydro/Focus Blast(/presumably DG/filler) isn't a bad special Azumarill set. The problem is that it's special Azumarill. Oh, and using Hydro on a Gastrodon (the first time; second time was a switch-in).
This is OU, not OM, but I can't find the OU thread.

That's the BW version in Thread Cryonics. XY OU had a 293-page whopper (which helped get me into Showdown in the first place, in an "even I can do better than these guys!" manner), which eventually was closed. michaeloche was there, he might be able to elaborate.
