Well its signature move IS air slash...

S stands for spin.
surely its rotom freeze/freezer not rotom fridge too...
Too many people switching/keeping Rotom-W into my Excadrill then eat a Mold Breaker Earthquake for being too stupid.
There's also this guy who's only got Skarmory left and chose to stall out the game while I taunted him to die from Brave Bird recoil. When he finally ran out of PP, he decided not to do anything to force me to forfeit. It took about a couple of minutes for me to figure out what he intended on doing and noticed the battle timer was off. Needless to say, I pressed the button to finally end his misery. Kudos to him for being determined though.

I am amazed by the synergy in this team.
(sorry for the vague description but it's only a few turns long and I really don't want to spoil what happens because it's too hilarious)

Another battle with a little silliness. Keeping, what I can only surmise as a Choice Spec/Scarf Heatran in against Barbaracle... And, for some weird reason, Air Balloon Gardevoir.

Shedinja on the same team as a damaging weather bringer? *facepalm*
Random Shit volume 30: Good Thing I'm Not Using Roman Numerals for This One Edition
-Stone Edge+Lava Plume Heatran.
-Sub+Curse Trevenant, which is a damn quick way to trip a Sitrus Berry.
-Several turns of a whole lot of nothing: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/oumonotype-88165690
-Archeops using Ancient Power on turns 1 and 2. And getting the boost both times. But then it had both Acrobatics and Wing Attack, and was holding something.
-Fake Out Ludicolo.
-Dragon Claw+Hidden Power Aggron. And Focus Punch without a sub.
-Quick Claw Milotic. It activated on a turn it used Dragon Tail.
-Electro Ball Rotom-W. Without a Scarf.
-Rhyperior Thunderpunching and Dragon Tailing a Whimsicott.
-Facade Scrafty. Would have been even funnier if it had Shed Skin, but no confirmation on that.
-Roar Mamoswine is one thing. Using it on Espeon is another thing entirely.
-Tangela.
-Audino.
-SD+U-turn M-Scizor.
-Destiny Bond Trevenant, against a Dusclops spamming Fire Punch. Said Dusclops also had Brick Break (which allowed it to avoid DB) and Frisk.
-Shadow Claw Garchomp. What exactly are you hitting with that, Gengar?
-Moonblast+Ice Punch stall Clefable without Magic Guard.
-Sucker Punch Rotom-W.
-Flame Charge Talonflame. Gotta go fast.
-"Talonflame Check" was the nickname one guy gave to his... Gigalith.
-Explosion Smeargle.
-Y-zard and T-tar on the same team. More crazy weather than Indiana. And that's saying something.
-Ominous Wind Dusclops, which gave it the boost. Twice.
-Body Slam Aggron.
-Wise Glasses Togekiss, stolen by a Thief+Sucker Punch Shedinja.
-Frustration Garchomp.
-Shadow Claw non-mega Absol.
-A Bulk Up Talonflame that had WoW instead of a Fire STAB.
-Focus Sash+Counter Pikachu.
-Stone Edge+Lava Plume Heatran.
-Sub+Curse Trevenant, which is a damn quick way to trip a Sitrus Berry.

Thats me. XD
michaeloche Are you intentionally backwards laddering to see these things, or you just making them up. I find it highly unlikely that someone can see all of these terrible things so frequently. And Zard Y + TTar isn't silly at all. SD + U-turn Scizor has its uses, Gigalith does check Talonflame, and W-o-W is an option on BU Talonflame.
I am clicking on the Replays button on PS, then looking through stuff. It's a goldmine.
As for Gigalith, it does check Talonflame, but there's stuff that does it better in general, like Tyranitar and Rotom-W.
Shadow Claw Garchomp? Well there's a counter to Gardy, if you don't wanna run Iron Head.
Well I was too busy raising eyebrows at it to do the calcs but I see your point.
Avalugg does it as well believe it or not... if you remember to use Recover when needed and use Avalanche. The physical bulk of it works for checking Talonflame, and a good number of physical dragons too (especially Garchomp)
random noobish stuff In Ubers.
physical blissey using brickbreak egg bomb protect aromatherapy
dark void spam.....on mega mewtwo Y
special terakion with rocks, EVs invested in sp. Atk
a guy who loved his in game team so much he still had all HMs on the pokemon
dunsparce in ubers, need I say more?

I actually did Dark Void spam on MewY before I realized it had insomnia. More of a new gen 6 thing than being a noob, per se.
I think I saw that same scrafty! I remember watching a replay, and scrafty gets burned, and I was waiting for shed skin and then.... Facade.
Also, I am super guily of running a ancientpower serene grace jirachi with investment in bulk, and I won't even lie, when you get the boosts in a row, you feel like "SO THIS IS WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE A LEGENDARY IN THE ANIME"!!!
A lot of these things are very viable. Charizard Y + Tyranitar is one of the best offensive cores in OU as Ttar removes important Char-Y checks like Lati@s. Audino is also a very viable cleric with Regenerator and good bulk. Eviolite Tangela is an absolute Physically defensive monster and has a nice 100 SpAtk to boot. SD + U-turn Scizor lets it function as a pivot and late game cleaner assuming it has Bullet Punch.
Yeah but the fact that opponent was using an Audino and a Tangela in OU is not right since for what purpose do they serve when they severely get outclassed there (Blissey and Ferrothorn)
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-88266312 i was laddering when...
Audino isn't outclassed by Blissey lol. Regenerator means it doesn't have to heal itself. Tangela has much more attacking power than Ferrothorn and again has Regenerator to heal itself.
So does Tangrowth ._.
Totally. Hax for boosts once or twice and then baton pass to something a bit more threatening, and then fucking GG.
