These teams are impractical in every sense of the word. When you look at them on paper they look decent enough, but there are many problems.
RATTATA SNIPE TEAM
6 x Rattata Lvl1 @Focus Sash
-Nature doesn't matter
-Endeavour
-Quick Attack/Extremespeed

The idea is that the opponent goes to wipe you out in one hit, you endure it and use Endeavour to bring them down to 1hp, then you QA/ES them and wipe them out. Can be used with Mons like Starly.
PROBLEM: The opponent can see immediately what you are going to do and might counter with the odd Extremespeed Pokemon as if two Pokemon use QA/ES/Mach Punch at the same time the higher speed wins.
BATON PASS BUDDIES
This team can take many different forms, the idea behind this one is that you have 5 'mons which have stat boosting moves AND Baton pass, just use your normal lead of choice plus a few moves that boost stats. (Not sure if Tyranitar can learn Baton Pass, if so I'd put Stealth Rock, Dragon Dance, Baton Pass and Crunch w/ Sand Stream as a lead)
PROBLEM
Easily countered by everything, literally. The first 5 monsters are simply setups for a sixth that may or may not be good against any one of the opponents 'mons. This is definitely a gamble, although it is funny to see a Magikarp KO and OU tier in one hit because of this.
Please, post your own impractical teams that look good but really are not. I'll add them to the top post and credit you.
