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

[Durant]

Am I allowed to say Showdown is just silly today? All of it?

Not all of it, just the lower ladder parts of OU and Ubers.

Pretty sure they meant because of april fools.

Yes. Very yes.

Alright! So here's what happened to Random Battles:
The art is changed.... DRASTICILY (Seriously I saw Groudon and I just died XD)
MissingNo is in every team (I think it just has WaterGun/SkyAttack/Metronome/DoubleEdge)
Also the chat gets raided by people spamming TPP commands (LEFT, RIGHT, START and such)
And I think the art will still stay the same after today (on the replay at least, different format :P)

Also I saved this because..... Lilligant sweep (And dat Carracosta art too XD)

This is what happens when you try to be a douche with flash Ninjask.

the sprite changes must only be for people with accounts or something, because theyre all normal to me

 

[Hclegend]

Nope, it changes it back to normal ;-;
Is sad because Carracosta gets a Koopa Sprite

Hide

I dunno how this works :P

I apologise if these don't show up, Twitter is a bitch. also apologies if this breaks the rules. It's the only way I can get these to paste correctly :/

Edit: OMG I FOUND A CARRACOSTA :D

My Deoxys-D sweeping 6 pokemon: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105082011

Edit: FYI this is a long battle

 

[Delibird is Amazing]

not only is it a 6 eeveelution team. it is a 6 eeveelution team with headbutt flareon

 

[Rotosect]

See my signature.
Also, Shuckle sweep of the day: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105124024

 

[Ze Diglett]

But an awful special defence. But with focus sash, you don't care about that. So if the opponent has no priority, you can lead with focus sash max speed Cloyster, shell smash and then wreck everything at +2/+2. If the opponent has priority, you need to eliminate that first though.

You... clearly didn't read the first part of the sentence, did you?

That would actually be a pretty valid excuse if the Cloyster in question actually used Shell Smash

April Fools or not - this was a hilarious battle. Mixed with the dumbass sprites (bacon) and everything all together, I loved it.

Random Shit volume 71: No Fooling Edition
-I don't know what's worse, his team or the chat: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105114696
-Um...: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105114626
-Flare Blitz Y-zard.
-Focus Sash Machamp. I think he's bulky enough.
-Tornadus-I for no apparent reason.
-Energy Ball Ninetales. Because you can't have stuff screwing with your sun.
-A teammate Rotom-H using Thunder. Do I need to remind people that Thunder sucks in sun?
-Wish+Eject Button Jolteon.
-Me First Talonflame. At least it can take advantage of it.
-Red Card+Heart Stamp Miltank.
-Non-mega Charizard with Blast Burn. And Heat Wave. And Charcoal.
-Dewgong. With Berry Juice.
-Another non-mega Charizard that used Double-Edge on Rhyperior.
-Venusaur using Solar Beam outside of sun, and also with Energy Ball and Giga Drain, because one Grass STAB isn't enough.
-Brick Break Doublade... against another Doublade.
-Jolteon using Quick Attack ever, and against one of the Doublades.
-Torterra with Bullet Seed.
-Leftovers Porygon2. Does that guy not know what Eviolite is?
-A team with Toxic Orb Clefable, Toxic Orb Reuniclus, and Overcoat Forretress. Looks like someone really hates Spore and also hates using Gliscor.
-Nothing like getting a 6-0 thanks to your opponent's sheer incompetence: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pokemonhispano-ou-209
-A team of all Lv 99's, and that's just the start: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105124580
-Quiver Dance+Whirlwind Masquerain. Also, Masquerain in general.
-4 Pokemon? No wonder he forfeited: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105125722

He was replying to your comment about defense, not about the shell smash.

also the substitute animation is replaced with a sign that says "pay no attention to whats behind this sign" XD

 

[kirant]

Welcome to kirant's adventures with an RNG team.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105161162

Up today the RNG team faced:
- Leftovers Greninja
- Dream Eater Mega Gardevoir. Is this a thing I'm unaware of?
- Fly Charizard

 

[The Shellder Smuggler]

I'm very surprised this thread isn't flooded with posts along the line of the following:
Donphan.

You're right, because Donphan is in OU and actually a good pokemon.

 

[Scorpiopt]

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-105099361

not only is it a 6 eeveelution team. it is a 6 eeveelution team with headbutt flareon

 

[Yayz]

HEY LOOK A DISTRACTION THAT ISN'T AN ARGUMENT ABOUT DONPHAN
THOSE SILLY POKEMON SHOWDOWN SPRITES AMIRITE

 

[Blizzardhail]

You're right, because Donphan is in OU and actually a good pokemon.

Everyone had their opinions but I believe Donphan belongs in UU
It's a running gag among some of the smogon members.
Lol too late

You know what's really silly:

Hard to knock an opponent when you stayed in with a bisharp on a breloom and using mixed heatran and staying in with said heatran on a flygon........

 

[michaeloche]

Of course, that Breloom had HP either Poison or Psychic, which should not be used against Bisharp ever, plus Quick Attack Flygon.

It also wasn't my battle...

 

[Vengeance417]

This one's a gem.

http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/oususpecttest-105217748

• Facade Gliscor.

• Mega-less physical Charizard (he could have been expecting my Mega Charizard X evolution, which may have been why he chose not to mega evolve right away to avoid super effective Dragon type damage from my own Zard, but it was still a funny thing to see).

• Retaliate and Solar Beam (without Power Herb) Ambipom.

Last, and probably the best:

• FACADE AND GIGA IMPACT SYLVEON!

Absorb Bulb Charizard going for a sweep against a Quagsire paralyzed by a Static, non Light Ball, Body Slam Pikachu. Among... others.

 

[Caramelqueen]

I decided to bring my tier team (One pokemon per tier (currently per limbo) including borderline) onto the ou ladder with an alt.

IT"S NOT EVEN A GOOD TEAM

Another silly one

(And half the time, I'm kinda just clicking buttons and not even caring anymore)
