Really? Did not know that. Well, I knew that it was hardcoded for Aegislash, but I assumed that anything that transformed into it could use it too.

Toxic everywhere!

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-87115705
The ending of this match was as close as it was odd. Who needs No Guard anyway?

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-hackmons-87126950
People, please stop using OHKO moves without No Guard. Seriously.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-87138078
Somebody is using Lock On instead of No Guard. Lock On.

Blast Burn.

I've been having a lot of fun laddering on 1v1 with a shedinja. I get a lot of forfeits and some stupid battles, but this one really takes the cake.

Protip: Always run minimum Defence and Special Defence on Shedinja. That way, Imposter Ditto gets screwed over. It's even funnier to do that in Hackmons or Balanced Hackmons. Some guy got his Imposter Blissey OHKOd when it copied my Sturdinja's 0 IV, 0 EV, -nature Def and 0 IV, 0 EV Sp. Def. Now that was funny.

That may have been me. I've since figured out how to deal with Shedninja, though.

I might as well post all my old silly matches :

In which I get screwed over by Mareep and Stunky.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-hackmons-83679769
This one has to be seen to be believed. Shame I didn't get to see the rest of this fabulous team.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-hackmons-83652739

This battle. This entire battle. I think I managed to expose all of he abilities and moves and most of the items besides the Tentacruel, but I'm not sure.
The Alakazam was mixed with Charge Beam, Energy Ball and Encore in addition to Drain Punch.

Oh yeah, maybe that was you... Haha.

Edit: Also, it's funny that all of those OHKO moves hit. After all, OHKO moves aren't affected by standard acc/evade stages. (Did you not know that Sturdy makes you immune to OHKO moves? It's not even "hang on with 1 HP", it's "take no damage at all". That was its original thing before it also became a permanent Focus Sash.)

Edit2: Also, Albacore, I keep meaning to tell you that you should spell "Assassin" properly in your Blissey's nickname. You're spelling it with only one "s" on the second part, which is wrong.

Edit3:

You actually didn't need to switch out of Lock On. That Shedinja had Sturdy after all, which you had just Impostered, and he hadn't used Gastro Acid on you.

Joining the Hackmons train here. Tossed together all the overused shit: OHKO Deoxys, Wonder Guard Jolteon/Blissey, Imposter Blissey/Chansey, and a random MB Groudon for lulz.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-87452905
Jolteon guy suicides by himself. lel

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/hackmons-87517137

Nothing much, just a hilarious battle log, and someone forgetting to set abilities.

It's like he almost understands how FEAR works...

Speaking of which, it's always fun when people flee at the sight of my Level 1 Deo-A: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-85228406
Using a mediocre OU team in BH? It's more likely than you think: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/balancedhackmons-87462418
Also, I never got a replay, but someone I faced used Skill Swap Gengar with Normalize. Seems normal so far, right? Well, he got Contrary from my Blaziken and he used his free turn to Shell Smash.

>Level 100 FEAR Aron
>Boosting moves on FEAR Aron
>Autotomize followed by Heavy Slam
>Autotomize followed by Curse
>Not also running Extreme Speed or Feint, which he could do 'cause it's BH

Here, I'll give you a quick tutorial on how to use Sand FEAR in BH:
Lead with an impossibly slow mon with Sand Stream and holding a Smooth Rock. 0 Speed IVs, 0 Speed EVs, -Speed nature, to ensure your weather activates second over enemy weather. Hell, since its BH you could even use a Level 1 Sand Stream Shedinja to guarantee that it is KOd first turn.

Second member is Sturdy anymon at level 1 as long as its base HP is sufficiently terrible and it is Rock, Steel, or Ground-type.
Give it Shell Bell.
Moveset: Endeavor/Foresight/Feint/Heal Block (or Knock Off)

Foresight makes Ghosts FEAR you too if they are kind enough to give you a free turn. Heal Block/Knock Off lets you disable Leftovers recovery, or other healing sources with Heal Block, again provided they give you a free turn. Heal Block can be reflected by Magic Guard/Magic Coat though, which is bad. Feint lets you finish off Rock/Ground/Steel-type or Magic Guard/Overcoat foes, and prevents them from trying to use a protection move or break Sturdy with Spiky Shield.
