Figured this was the place to share my first competitive battle: Gen 7 Anything Goes on Pokemon Showdown. Took me about five minutes.
EDIT: Second battle was way too easy: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7anythinggoes-756972034
EDIT 2: Triple Arceus ain't very round… https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7anythinggoes-757053144

So I just made a new account which has no rank. This meant I ended up facing people who aren't very skilled… I ended up shutting down some gimmicky teams; two forfeits here:
Can't kill what you can't catch!
I didn't get Beaten Up too badly

This one with my friend was really close, but in the end the hax were in his favour

i used to go into anything goes with some major sweepers and one staller and ended up beating way more than i thought

heck i love teambuilding but it drops my ladder ranking way down because i spend a lot of time building teams that cause some underestimation, and it takes a lot of ironing out a garbage team

Yeah, it's super difficult to test your teams without dropping down the ladder

alright i'm working on an ru team
pokepaste
win
win by default
loss
recovery's an issue for sure, and just getting better's a part of it (still really new to competitive), but other than that suggestions?

Do you know how long this took me to get a good team to fight…
FEAR me

I have spent the past few days on a quest to make this team work, I've tweaked it and got to the point where I could win many times but people just forfeit as soon as they realize what's going on. So, I decided to just settle for this showcase of the team.
Wonder Guard on a type-less Pokémon = OP
