YMMV / Showderp

• Ensemble Dark Horse: Most of the memes, but particularly BOOM BOOM, Boostan Roostan, Citizen Snips, Funbro (R.I.P), DOGARS, and Bill.
• Gameplay Derailment: Funbro, which was designed to cause endless battles.^How? First, give Funbro a special defense boosting nature (usually calm), maximum investment in both defensive stats with the leftovers going into HP, a Leppa Berry, the ability Oblivious, and the moves Block, Recycle, Slack Off and Heal Pulse. Send Funbro out against a defensive Pokemon like Ferrothorn (or one that can't 2HKO it, such as Infernape) that lacks Toxic (which breaks the strategy due to how it works). Block the opponent from switching, then spam Slack Off to heal off the damage they do (which should never out-damage the recovery, since defenders aren't built to do damage well). Oblivious keeps Taunt from working. Rinse and repeat until the opponent runs out of PP and starts Struggling. Use Heal Pulse to keep them alive. When Slack Off, Heal Pulse, or Recycle run out of PP, the Leppa Berry restores 10 of its PP. Recycle to get the berry back. The result if done correctly? A battle that never ends until the user willfully throws the match, which is banned under Showderp rules, or the opponent decides to Rage Quit. It actually led to Smogon creating an exhaustive new clause banning movesets capable of it. The fact that it remains banned even in Anything Goes (which, lest we forget, is the home of Mega Rayquaza) goes to show how infamous the Funbro was.
• Memetic Mutation: invoked Various phrases have reached local meme status for certain situations.
  • “WHY CHAMP”, “CHAAAAMP”, “CHAMP HAD A STROKE”, and basically any incoherent swearing when Champ screws up.
  • "[Opponent], do you have a cute little sister with cute little feet?"
  • “It’s Happening!”, “You done it now!”, “OH BBY”, etc. when one of Champ’s Pokémon is given the opportunity to start setting up.
  • “PRESS THE BUTTON!”, as the generally accepted term to tell Champ to use a powerful attack (most commonly Outrage).
  • “NICE X, NERD!” to mock the opponent’s team, shiny Pokémon, items, moveset, ability, strategy, name, avatar, and basically everything else.
  • “FINAL FORM!!!” as a request for Champ to continue boosting one of their Pokémon’s stats to the absolute limit, either because it’s necessary to be able to sweep the opponent… or just because they can and it’ll be hilarious.
  • "You're fighting Marriland!"
  • "BALK" when a Pokémon survives an attack either just barely or by a large amount.
  • "STRONK" when an attack unexpectedly deals a lot of damage.
  • Some sarcastic variant of "WOW, BIG DAMAGE" or "A HUEG AMOUNT OF DOMMAGE" when an attack does pathetic damage.
  • "Crit mattered", either when a Critical hit bypasses a Pokémon's defensive boosts and KOs it when normally it would have survived, or sarcastically when the Pokémon had very low health and would have fainted anyway.
  • “rekt”, “#REKT”, or “Shrekt” almost every single time the Champ knocks out an opponent’s Pokémon.
  • “OU: The Team: The Movie: The Metagame: The Experience 2: Electric Boogaloo” when seeing a team that is very typical of the tier and a suspected copy-paste.
  • “Nice team. Did you build it yourself?”
  • [VIEWER] HAS REPORTED [OPPONENT] FOR THE FOLLOWING OFFENSE: HACKING. IF YOU WANT TO APPEAL THIS BAN, PRESS CTRL+W NOW.^note Pressing CTRL+W closes the browser window and in most cases causes Champ to win by disqualification victory.
  • “>” or alternately “>>>>>>>” when Champ or the opponent does something stupid or unexpected, with the implication that what just happened was so unbelievable that the viewer couldn’t even finish their greentext statement.
  • “Status when?”/”Crit when?”/”Boosts when?”, bemoaning the lack of a status effect, critical hit, or random status increase occurring (the latter mostly with Boostan Roostan).
  • “Status/Crit/Boosts never” is a common response.
  • “It’s ogre”, when predicting that Champ will lose.
  • Emoticon faces like ":^)" at the end of purposely stupid remarks.
  • "Donk" or "Dink" when a switch-out causes an attack to be a No-Sell or not very effective. This may be either the Sound of No Damage or a shortened version of "Predonk" from "Predict", as in "predicted that attack and nullified it".
  • "GREED" when either Champ or the opponent are getting risky with unnecessary stat boosts and might be setting themselves up to get KO'd.
    • Alternately, "Yes, goy, greed more!" to encourage the opponent to keep greeding so that the Champ can buy time to fix the situation.
  • "Thanks, RNG", when a move with a random effect does something useless.
  • “Would you a X y/n?”, as casual banter asking if the other viewers would have sex with whatever X is, be it a Pokémon that was just sent out, an avatar, the Champ or opponent, or something completely out of context.
  • “y”, “n”, or “/” as responses to the above poll.
    • Similarly to the above, "I wonder what [Pokémon]/[Pokémon type] braps smell like?" pops up in the chat for time to time.
  • "great!" when the champ does something useless or gets Out-Gambitted.
  • "We did it, 9gag/Reddit!" After winning a match.
  • Calling the Champ a word slightly similar to “Champ” as a derogatory remark. Examples include Chimp, Chump, Lump, Lamp, and Limp.
  • "ebin": A slang term common to imageboards, usually meaning "this isn't as awesome or clever as you think it is, or indeed, at all awesome or clever."
• Unpopular Popular Character: Most of the shitmons, LittleMac, and pretty much any other Forced Meme.
