i hate random match-ups, they used banned pokes like garchomp and drizzle+swift swim, funny how the censors can detect hacked pokes but not illegal sets or w/e. =/

I hope you know that Nintendo Wi-fi doesn't enforce smogon rules and clauses. So no, its not illegal at all. Nintendo bans different pokemon on the wifi servers that they use for their random matchups.

I only played it once in doubles, and it was against a Metagross + Cresselia combo. Cresselia safeguarded, then kept Swaggering Metagross, and Cresselia was immune to Metagross's EQ.

Neither of those are illegal on wi-fi. In fact, I abuse DrizzleSwim in doubles with 2 Swift Swimmers (Kingdra, Ludicolo) a physical attacking monstrous healer w/ Drain Punch, Dry Skin, and Black Sludge (Toxicroak) and a Drizzler. (Politoed)

I thought Beat Up Whimsicott + Terrakion was everywhere?

I win a lot of random matches. Usually I get lucky and find people using UU or NU Pokemon while I'm using OU Pokemon.

My record is 1-4 in the rated battles, even though it should be 7-3, thanks to rage quitters. The people I lost to were OU battlers, and so was the one person I beat who didn't quit. The rest were kids who put Hyper Beam on their starters. It's not nearly as fun as it hoped it would be when I first learned about the feature. The free battles aren't as bad though, and I have some fun there using lower tier Pokes.

I'm doing okay, except for fact that people rage quit on me almost all the time when I they lose their last pokemon. It annoys me a lot, I only have 49 wins after doing random match-up for weeks

Random Match-Ups have a pretty good hack security system I thought. Some people must hack a lot to get through it. Anyways, I think Latias is the most HAX-attracting PKMN ever. I get frozen, poisoned, and burned ALL the time on Random Matches.

I run two teams on random triple or random launcher: a beat-up terrakion team, and a synergy team. Every time I use beat-up terrakion my opponent rage quits, and everytime i win with the synergy team they rage quit.

Case in point, I just got slaughtered by this guy running 4 water types, i managed to kill off his two non-waters and he managed to get all my pokes but whimsicott. I then giga-drained his 4 water types to death without him managing to get whimsi and he ragequit. Argh.

You're asking for ragequits when you use beat-up Terrakion. :p

I use Thunder Wave Ferro+NP Thundurus+trick scarf rotom-w, and it works wonders. Ferro paralyzes, Rotom gives Thundurus a set up oppurtunity, and Thundurus sweeps.

i got 207 wins and 32 loss in random single
my favorite and most fun match ups are when i vs some pro japanese people with no OU pokes, they use pokemon like golduck and destroys OU pokemons and don't disconnect when they lose. has any one else met people like that?

here is a battle vid of one of my battles video to show you why they are fun

Statistically, it seems like people who disconnect will have higher scores than people who don't because they'll have a lot fewer losses compared to wins. Not like I've every rage quit... I think it's really unfair that doing something so unsportsmanlike will actually improve your score.
