Read on for a counter!
Japanese Pokemon X and Pokemon Y players have been flooding that games Free Battle mode with hacked Pokemon, leaving anyone who uses legitimate Pokemon a loser.
Most recently, a player using a level 1 Aron (Steel, Rock) resisted 100% my Xerneas' Moonblast (Fairy), and proceeded to knockout my Pokemon with one hit.
The only way that a Pokemon can resist a Fairy move is by having the Wonder Guard Ability -- which only Shedinja can possess. That ability makes the user immune to direct damage moves that are not super effective.
The fact that Nintendo's allowing obviously hacked Pokemon with impossible abilities and stats in matches is embarrassing.
To counter those users, I've been turning my 3DS' wireless mode off, so they don't get a win...
