    As you know, Hax has been a much disliked part of the game thanks to its unpredictable nature, some saying that this removes the main aim of Pokémon, to predict the others move. However some as its just part of the game and move on, some people use it as a gimmik but so many people brush them off as "not being able t win ithout hax". Either way, we've all experienced hax in competitive, so, do you use it? Do you see it as a viable strategy and most importantly, are ther any hax orinted teams which you find amazing? Can you make an anti-hax team? Are there any replays where all you can do is laugh as you beat someone with a hax oriented team?

    Show me and tell me!

    It's pretty much impossible to hax-proof a team, but hax is rarely a viable strategy. Para-fusion from Prankster/Serene Grace users is probably the most viable outside of Scald burning, but even that isn't always reliable. Hax is often what can throw a game's balance completely off-center, as you've mentioned, though that's part of the game that makes Pokémon accessible to literally anyone that can play.

    I don't depend on hax in any way since it's far too risky. However, it's not necessarily a bad thing to hope for it ;)

    I evasion-toxic hax'd an opponent one time and got a pretty good result out of it, I probably lost having taken out 5 of my opponent's Pokes. It's got to be maddening being on the receiving end of that, complete helplessness in the face of a rapidly-approaching passive doom.

    Lately, though, I'm more likely to just defense-toxic, which I don't think is hax. I try not to rely on it, for feeling like I'm taking cheap shots.
