Sturdy + mirror coat is a gimmick since you'd expect to OHKO it with fire blast, but then it hangs on with sturdy and destroys you back, in theory. So it at least has its uses.
The problem was he was using it against a dark type.

Yeah, I wanted to try special Shuckle for lulzs.
tauros
and if that's not bad enough,

One of the players forfeited on turn 1. I don't generally save replays of that, so I don't remember the specifics about the teams and users.
Speaking of forfeiting on turn 1, there's...forfeiting on turn 1. Am I right in labeling that as "silly", or is it just me?
Pikachuun
the entire waruda machine
Depends. I've felt like doing it before, for instance when I derp out and do something like pick the wrong team. ("Oh, I built a Twitch Plays Pokemon team to troll my friends and accidentally searched for an OU match with it!")
I've also had people insta-forfeit when my Mega Absol Magic Bounces a Sticky Web from their Smeargle on turn 1. (One of the first signs that I was actually fighting better players was when I learned that I couldn't pull that with Galvantula leads, since a smart player would just 1HKO with Bug Buzz.)
Pseudo Stupid stuff 2.
Swellow: Really, a pokemon with STAB Facade(The same base power as Boomburst when statused is activated by the way) and an attack stat of 448 when Guts is activated AND with a base speed of 125 should be bad?
Hyper beam Sylveon: It has pixilate, so Hyper beam is a decent last resort move to heavily damage something that might give your team trouble.
Magical leaf Roserade: Roserade gets Technician.
Doom Desire Jirachi: There is this little set with Wish, Protect, Doom Desire, Bodyslam that can be frustrating to face.
Golem. Sturdy+Weakness Policy+Agility or clones is a decent combination.
Standart rotom. This thing is a decent Defog counter and spin blocker. Mandibuzz gets OHKOd by Life orb thunderbolt, Excadrill gets 2hkod by shadow ball.Donphan gets 2HKOd by Shadow ball and Mega Scizor gets 2HKOd by thunderbolt with Stealthrocks and even Ohkod with a 50% Chance after Stealth rocks from Hidden power fire. The Only Defog user who beats Rotom is Skuntank and even this thing gets heavily damaged if you cant predict.
Flygon. It takes only damage from Stealth rocks and resists them.
Tauros. Sheer Power + 110 Base speed + 100 Attack. This can do damage.(To be honest, the moves that tauros should that are affected by sheer force are Zen Headbutt, Fire Blast, Rock Slide, Rock Climb)

"I just saw a Kingler. Lord help me. It was okay tho, I OHKO'd it on the switch with Power Whip from my physical Venusaur." - some random on PS, in his mind.

Highlights:
-Effect Spore + Drain Punch + Energy Ball Breloom
-Rest + Insomnia Gourgeist
-Fly + Brick Break - Earthquake Landorus
-Hella sweet plays like SDing with Talonflame on a Garchomp who just missed with Stone Edge.

Well this is a weird battle: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-92360472
That was the strangest battle I've ever seen
I don't really know what to make of this...

I just...what. Are these people trying to be this bad? Please tell me they're trying. Please.
When the player using Normal Gem Body Slam Charizard with Seismic Toss is the better player of the two, you have problems.
I had to tap out when the special attacking Scizor started SDing.
I'd say it was genius playing on both sides. I don't mean to embellish, but it was like watching Einstein and Newton play a game of chess.

I don't know if they were trying to be bad but found it and it was funny.
My favorite part was the absorb bulb sky attack Murkrow.
I can't believe what I just saw. 5:0 even...is this new meta?
Well i have seen stuff like calm mind +3 physical attacks and pokemon with 4 setup moves but i see alot of weird stuff.
