In ubers, where chomp can be run, sandstorm is often washed out or dried out by kyogre or groudon.

When someone switches in a Cacturne in Sandstorm with Brightpowder then uses Double Team over 100 times!

Though Double Team is banned, a Brightpowder Sub-SD Cacturne in the Sand has owned me once. Goshdarn hax >.>

There's this tactic that involves setting up Stealth Rocks and Spikes, and then using a really fast Assist to use Whirlwind/Roar before the opponent can attack, thereby preventing the opponent from doing anything, and making them take damage from Stealth Rocks/Spikes.

There's also parahaxing (Jirachi/Togekiss/Dunsparce/etc.)

I've also thought of one tactic, that involves preventing the opponent from leaving (Fire Spin, etc.), and using Torment + Encore. I haven't tested this (on Shoddy or in-game), either the opponent is forced to Struggle, or one of the moves fail.

Haha, evasion isn't banned in VGC play. We see it all the time at the tournaments! It doesn't bother me though because in reality it only works like 1/10 times.

What does bother me, and probably doesn't bother you "singles" players, is the move Dark Void. An 80% chance to put BOTH your leads to sleep is unfair. :/ Granted, only Smeargle can use it in VGC style play, because Darkrai has been banned so far *thankyousweetjesus* so if you see a Smeargle, you have a heads-up, but still... gawd I hate it.

[edit]
Oh, and what really makes it worse, is that there is no Sleep Clause in VGC style play. They can just put all 4 of your pokes to sleep.

Stall in general is just awful and boring to face, but Breloom and Jirachi are both extremely annoying in standard play.

Now that I think about it, Breloom's really, really annoying as well, so cheap, yet so effective...:/

I think the Pokemon that have come up the post are Breloom and Jirachi. And I think Machamp perhaps deserves to be on the list, with its Dynamic Punch.
Now to incorporate them into one team...
