I know. I think SMOGON's tier system is really stupid sometimes. I've encountered Shaymin, Heatran, Entei and others in OU battles and I'm just like.... really? These things are MORE powerful that non-legendary pokémon.
I'm just prone to disconnecting whenever i see one. I don't enjoy having my team I've put together with much thought, love and care stompted on by something that doesn't even require skill to master.
In general, whether or not i dislike a pokémon is based on that logic. Anything that requires no skill in its mastery is something i consider boring and lame, and i find it incredibly frustrating if they beat me. Point/Counterpoint, beating them is incredibly gratifying when it happens.

I got a level 100 6IV mewtwo off wonder trade a few days ago (you can all take a moment to be jelluz rn) so that would work for me. But i'm still not movitated to use it. I've beaten Mewtwo's before with my CLEFABLE.
Your team is pretty conformist, Fred, but that's fine because you using magnezone and miltank makes up for it. Especially since it's not effing ROTOM-W or BLISSEY like everyone else does :eyes. It's not hard to think outside of the box and come up with a creative team.
That's also why Ubers is by far the most boring tier imo. The same 30 pokémon over and over again. :-/ I'll pass. My team is solidly OU/UU and that is where I want to be, as far as i'm concerned.
For you information, its Magnepwne and Milky Gay! 
I do not think I am conformist. I admit that some of mine are unoriginal but I put my own touch on them with EV spread and non-essential moves. And who would use Archeops or physical Greninja for example? Most of mine do not appear to be that common and I am not interested in mainstream powerhouses such as Garchomp/Tyranitar.
Poison Orb Gliscor was something I saw in a video was like, "damn I want one of those". But I do not necessarily use the exact same moves. At first I had Thunder/Ice punch instead of Roost and Toxic. It gave me amazing coverage in return for shorter stalling time. It was Gliscor with Ice punch that Froze a team of Yveltal, Mewtwo and charizard and ended up fully healed at the end.

Poison heal Gliscor is really common. For good reason. I have several good counters to it, but ice beam would have to hit it first.
side note i hatched a 6 IV scatterbug <3 and it's male too <3

I do not care too much about IVs but I do put a little effort into at least not getting bad ones and preferably higher in favoured stat.
Also, when I compared our teams, your teams looked way fruitier than my badasses.

Yeah. I actually prefer non-threatening looking teams to the Tyranitars and Kangaskhan's to the world. It's so funny when you sweep teams with something a Clefable or Jynx than it is with let's say, Garchomp.
I also don't like most "badass-looking pokémon" and I would never use a pokémon i don't at least *like* on my team.

There is some appeal to doing things like that. It's why I have a Shedinja (NU!) in my Ubers team. It completely walls Kyogre and Xerneas and can usually kill Deoxys-A with Shadow Sneak. People usually don't expect it.

Both times you won over me you managed to just sweep my entire team with some stupid looking thing.
The other being Aegislash, another extremely mainstream pokemon though it takes skill to use it effectively.
Edit: Shedinja is the best of the best! 
I used one in my campaign but because of its lousy IVs, he is stuck on False Swipe duty now.

Shedinja lol. I think it's too gimmicky to use properly, but if you find a use for it, it can be SUCH A TROLL. <3 It's one of those pokémon that, imo, completely transcends tiers because of his unorthodox it is.
Shedinja is useless against my teams though. I always have at least will-o-wisp or toxic on my team and/or entry hazards.

I have Defog to clear entry hazards and I switch to Aegislash to block Toxic. I don't see Will-o-Wisp much.

It's really fun and allows you to be creative, but it takes SO MUCH EFFORT X___X to breed and train my pokes. It usually takes me ~300 minutes per pokémon to get them ready, including breeding, supertraining and grinding them to level 50. Not including the time spent in the Maison and Institute for BP for items or the hours i spend on showdown testing my teams. It's so much effort.
But if I win (or lose but not in an embarrassing way), it's all worth it.
