    Well, there was a particular one I remember, quite a long time ago. I was down 5 - 2, my opponent having a weakened Dragonite & Deoxys-D, while also having full health Keldeo, Espeon, & Xatu. On the other hand, I had my Reuniclus (The Offensive TR set) which was at ~4% health & a full health Kingdra sitting in the back against the +1 +1 Dragonite. He Outraged me, which left me one hit from losing the battle, but I managed to survive & set up Trick Room. From there, I KO'd the Dragonite, Xatu, Espeon, & Keldeo in that order before he unfortunately forfeited. It would have been a 1 - 0 had he not forfeited, but oh well.

    One time I was having a rough battle. It was about 4 or 5-2 when his multiscale dragonite had come in, set up a lot, and knocked off a good chunk of my team. But my last Pokémon was my secret weapon. An imposter choice scarfed ditto. I came in and demolished his team with his own Pokémon and it was satisfying. That thing is a life saver and an enemy to offensive Pokémon everywhere.

    Let's see. Most recently I was using my NU team and I was getting beaten pretty bad leaving just vileplume, flareon, and audino(mega) left to my opponents 5 Pokémon. He was using a fire type and had just taken my walrein down after i had toxiced him. I sent vileplume out as bait then swapped into flareon. He took the bait and used a fire type move giving flareon its flash fire boost. I managed to take down 2 Pokémon down this way and brought a third down to the low yellow before flareon went down. I sent vileplume back out who took down the damaged poekmon. This left him with 2 Pokémon, vileplume managed to paralyze the next Pokémon via effect spore and do decent damage but was ultimately taken down. Audino was all i had left, I mega-ed and clam minded, then rested and sleep talked as necessary with dazzling gleam to attack. I probably would have lost if he had physical attacks, but I won thanks to him only having special attackers left.

    The best comeback I have ever had was against a different friend last year. He didn't have x/y but borrowed from our friend who i had been battling all day. He decided to bring in mega mewtwo despite our no legendary agreement. It decimated my team (niether of us was ev trained these were just from our playthroughs) leaving only Mega Gardevior left. She swept his entire team after shadowball and previous toxic damage had killed mewtwo. At hte end of the match she was in the red but survived. Ironically after that battle i renamed her from Princess to Titania because she instantly became the fairy queen of the team. :D

    Hmm, I don't have a replay of it, but with my steel mono I had a massive comeback thanks to M-Metagross. I was getting wrecked by a Evolite Chansey, since it had flamethrower. I had lost four Pokémon to it, and I really didn't want to use MegaMeta against it... However, I didn't realise how much damage a Hammer Arm would do to it... I destroyed the Chansey and went on to win the match (which he still had four Pokémon left).

    Well, I'm afraid I have no replay available, but my greatest comeback ever was with my NU Swoobat in Gen V on Showdown.

    My opponent basically managed to sweep my team mostly with a combination of his Primeape and Ludicolo, UNTIL I brought out my very last Mon; A Swoobat who was holding a Sash at the time. He had his Scarfed Primeape out who was locked into CC, so he switched to Ludicolo which allowed me to set up a Simple boosted Calm Mind. From there, I swept his entire team of 6 with my Swoobat with the Stored Power and Heat Wave combo. I managed to crit three of his Mons, including the Ludicolo. Not sure if some of the other crits mattered (close calcs, to say the least). He knocked me down to my Sash with one of his team members, but it didn't matter. He had no priority moves, nor Focus Sashes of his own, so he was screwed.

    Best NU battle ever. Kinda wish I did have the battle video to this day.

    This wasn't on my team, unfortunately it was the enemy.

    Infact, it was a member on LV, though unfortunately I forgot exactly who it was.

    However! I was in the lead -- major lead -- with 4 Full HP Pokémon Standing to their one.

    What was their one?
    [3D='lilligant']

    Quiver Dance + Own Tempo + Petal Dance against 4 Pokémon that were not resistant to it's grass attack was...
    to say in the least...

    brutal.

    I couldn't take it down no matter how hard I tried.

    Format: Random Battle.

    Savior: Bibarel.

    How it went down:

    Bibarel was the last Pokémon on my team, after a brutal sweep by my opponent's Gengar-Mega. By this time I learned it only knew a Ghost move that was capable of damage, so I felt safer against it, not against the rest of the team.
    I send it out. Curse thrice. Amnesia twice. Waterfall and Strength became OHKO moves very quickly.

    This battle. This is why I hate it when people say GG before the battle is even over. Anything can happen, and I managed to pull off the some what impossible thanks to the timer.

    A friend and I decided to have a friendly battle... And we wound up having the most intense battle either has had in a good while! His Green Team vs. my Pink Blobs, and it came down to a 1-6 sweep with a Struggle finish! It's 118 turns, but well worth watching until the end.
