I've had to delete and redo the Metrics achievements table due to some technical difficulties. Let me know if I made any mistakes.

And finally, claiming Platinum for Ability Achievement.
I'd like to thank a lot Cdijk16 for making this a thing, definitely had a great time completing those challenges despite the frustration it can provide.
I'll try to update some of my results (currently 33-0 and pretty sure I'm not done yet).
See y'all and long live SM OU!

What's your highest win streak? I'm going to put it in the records column.
 
SM OverUsed Ladder Achievements
OP copied from ADV OU Ladder Achievements


Hello everyone! Welcome to the SM OverUsed ladder achievements thread. Its goal is to record the various performances of the gen7ou ladder enthusiasts, as well as to propose extra challenges to animate things a little bit.

:Landorus-Therian: Rules :Landorus-Therian:
  1. All battles must take place on the gen7ou ladder on Showdown.
  2. Please give proof that you completed the challenge to validate your achievement (mostly, screenshots of the rating reached/you owning the account a la Suspect Test).
  3. You can get several achievements from the same battle/account, and you are generally encourage to post them by batch to avoid flooding the thread if you are chaining them up. I'll like your post once I've taken it into account.
  4. Achievements can be submitted in PM to me if you want the account you used to remain inconspicuous; I will be posting them in the thread (giving your Smogon username) myself. Please only do it as little as possible though; it's less fun.
  5. Past performances will not be counted; any submission needs to be verifiable on the server (by checking at the rank, WL and such) at the moment they are posted.
  6. Any Platinum achiever in Ability, Knowledge and Tactics can submit a new record beyond the Platinum standard that will be displayed in the table's first line. Please send me a private message on Smogon or Discord (Cdijk16#5364) for more specifics regarding how to submit the proofs as you go further and further.
  7. Naturally, don't try to cheat, i.e by submitting an achievement with an account that's not yours and yours alone. If you are caught doing so, you might get exposed and made fun of.
  8. Challenges' specifics might be subject to balance changes over time (increasing or lowering their difficulties); if that happens, achievements will be adjusted when possible.

** I'm only taking X-0 WL records on screenshots, so if you are aiming for this you should reset your count after every loss | do not relaunch a game before I've liked your post (= validated the achievement). or, if you do, don't lose :P

Try those tricky challenges!
Platinum: 1600

Silver: 1450
Bronze: 1400
Platinum: 1600
Gold: 1500
Silver: 1450
Bronze: 1400
Platinum: 4 Luck Challenges complete.
Gold: 3 LCs complete.
Silver: 2 LCs complete.
Bronze: 1 LCs complete.
Only use teams with
Pokémon that share a common type.
Only use teams with at least three
Pokémon that are UUBL (or in a lower tier).

  • The Luck Achievement is made of four different challenges you can complete in any order. All of them require you to have a particular performance in a single match, which means replays are required to validate them. Those are an exception to the PM option in rule 4; all of them have to be posted in the thread for fun's sake. There are a couple extra conditions to not make them too easy to clear:
    • The opponent beaten must have at least 1500 elo. Your own elo does not matter.
    • The opponent must be using 6 Pokémon teams.
    • Forfeits and time-outs will only be counted if the opponent was at an extreme disadvantage/had no chance of winning the match at that point.

  • Those Luck Challenges (LCs) are the following:
    • Surgical Strike: Win a battle only sending out three Pokémon or less.
    • The Sweepage Special: Win a battle where you announce in the chat what action you will take next turn, each turn (the name of the move you are going to use or of the Pokémon you are going to switch into).
    • Not So Weak: Win a battle using a team with all EVs at 0. (using !showteam is required at the end of the match; you need to put a single EV point in a stat on each of your Pokemon for the team to be valid)
    • Taken By Storm: Win a battle KOing the 6 opposing Pokémon by Turn 15.
A custom avatar is available for those who have got platinum in all achievements. Contact Clementine to receive your custom avatar once you have platinum in all achievements.

Note: I strongly prefer achievements being posted on this thread or sent to me in Smogon PMs as it's more convenient for me. You can still send achievements through Discord PM though if you insist.
Oh this is super cool!
2 dumb questions:
If I get these achievements on an alt can I still claim the avatar on my main account?
Is the avatar from a list or is this a straight up custom?

This is an amazing way to keep old gens alive and I'm ready to get back into SM!
