I didn't see a thread like this, but I thought it might be fun for people to share the craziest ways they lost their streaks in the battle maison. I had never spent much time battling in it until just recently, but I wanted to get a 50 streak so I could rematch Wally, and once I got past 50 I thought I would see how far I could go. I was using a Sylveon Modest w/ leftovers, m-Lopunny jolly, and latias modest w/ assault vest. Anyway I just lost at 72 streak (singles) and had some annoying luck during the streak (which I hear is very common). My first string of bad luck was on my 7th battle where I was fully paralyzed for 7 straight turns, but of course at this point it is hard not to win. I almost lost in the 60s because I led my Sylveon against a Novern and figured I could set up with calm mind, but it got 2 consecutive crits with hurricane and then knocked out my latias so I had to sweep with lopunny. Finally I lost because my lopunny crashed on high jump kick against a porygon 2 (this was the second Pokemon of the battle), which then used tri attack and got paralysis and knocked out lopunny on the next turn, then used thunder wave on latias, latias proceeded to be fully paralyzed 3 straight turns so it could knock it out, and then it got thunder wave on sylveon before it was finally knocked out. I figured I would still have a chance for a 1 hit because I keep hyper beam on my Sylveon for those just in case situations, but sure enough the final opponent was a bastiodon, which preceded to use rock slide to either flinch me or have me be fully paralyzed until the loss.

Anyone else have any stories of their crazy bad luck, it sure makes me feel a lot better to complain about it here.
 
In super singles, I got all the way up to round 49, then got swept by a hyper beam Aurorus. (I hadn't beaten round 50 at this point)

It downed my dragonite with multiscale and 100 SpDef EVs, and my mega Venusaur with max SpDef and HP IVs and EVs, and my assault vest Azumaril with max SpDef and HP IVs and EVs. One hit. Each of them. (Yeah, I know, I've focused too much on SpDef).
 
Most unlucky battle maison moments? Well, there was this one time when my Mega Gengar got hit by a Stunfisk's Fissure and lost me the match...
 
So I was going through the Maison to get an Ability Capsule for my Shiny Haxorus. I was doing great, and I came across this Piloswine. I thought "psh, this'll be easy." Then it used Hail. I forgot Piloswine has Snow Cloak, which ended pretty badly when I ended up missing twice with Surf, while it somehow managed to take out my Greninja with Fissure. Then I sent in Garchomp, who was one shot by Blizzard, and then it 2HKO'd Gengar with Stone Edge because, of course, Focus Blast missed.
