The Legendary Freeze Pokémon KO

The Legendary Freeze Pokémon KO

I don't know if anyone have figured out this before me, I suppose someone has, but anyway, this team will KO almost any opponent:

1. Articuno @Leftovers

Nature: Calm OR Bold

Attacks:

Substitute
Mind Reader
Sheer Cold WITH PP 6
Any Attack

All 6 Pokémon shall be like this, and then use attacks like this: Substitute, Mind Reader, Sheer Cold. In the theory, just 1 Articuno will do it, but I've heard some attacks can break through Substitute.

• Skarmory can't be OHKOed
• OHKOs are frowned on in competitive play
• Mind Reader doesn't work if the enemy switches

I'v taken out many legendaries with my 1hko smeargle.

spore, lock-on, horn drill/sheer cold, mean look.
Those were the days.

This will get so raped, but if you insist, fill the last move with Ice Beam.

I usualy gave smeargle quick claw and I did have common sense then.

good job reling on luck to have a chance of winning, you must be really skilled if you need luck to win

I have beaten my friend about five times with this strategy. But then, he got really mad and forbid me to use Articuno. But the battles was just for fun (mostly for me those times).

This is probably ingame and I don't see the AI there complaining.
Skarmory can get OHKOed if it has Keen Eye as a trait.

But true... even ingame the AI can switch

In double battles, a Golbat or something can use mean look, and when Diamond/Pearl gets introduced, Cherimu can use Trouble Seed to take away Sturdy from those who has it.

 

[aipomkong]

yeah that doesn't waste too much time to setup

or use Skill Swap/Role Play!!!

 

[Hoshi no Kabii]

lol. 'Strategy'

I hope you entered the JAA toury.

Edit:

Sheer Cold is cheap, don't use it. Mind Reader and Sheer Cold together is really stupid and only works if your opponent is really stupid or trapped against you.

Smogon speaks the truth.

Check the thing under my username........
That should do it
1ko is cheap like hell and cheaper then the bud of my neighbour
and treecko fan diamond and pearl issnt even out yet so stop talking that trouble seed takes away sturdy

 

[BasiltheDragon]

I've known about that for awhile. OHKO's are cheap, and that's cheaper.

 

[Great Sage]

Heh...Waiting...Waiting...you'll get knocked out by the time you set this up.

 

[TogeticTheRuler]

Example-
Articuno used mind reader,moltres used flamethrower,articuno is 3/4 dead,articuno used sheer cold,moltres used protect,moltres used flamethrower,tada,a way to stop 1 hit ko without switching

 

[aipomkong]

why does moltres have protect?
why is articuno faster then moltres?
