Pokemon constantly seen in wifi + other woes

Really, I'm tired of everyone looking up the competitive teams and stacking their team with top-tier pokemon or doubles teams. Does ANYONE have any creativity left on wifi? I understand they're all hackers, and even though I win against them many times, I'm just really tired of seeing these teams.

Tyranitar, Cresselia, Latias/os, Heatran, Scizor, Garchomp, Salamence, Politoed, Metagross, Tornadus, Landurus

There's over 600 pokemon, I see at least a couple of these few almost every game, and most of the time they're put together in a Sandstorm or Rain team. I understand some pokemon are not as good as others, but this is borderline boring when I beat the same teams over and over again with a team I didn't put together to mimic the last championship winner's team. Get some creativity people, I hate eating your Cresselia alive 100 times in a row.

Also I counted it; I've been the poor receiver of over 35 critical hits in the last 25 battles, and I have yet to critically hit anyone even with Night Slash which gets used almost every match.
 
There are two things you can do on wifi: win, and use pokemon you like. Most people just like winning. It's unfortunate that we're all put together, because it reinforces the idea of perfect IV and nature Heatran users being superior to people who want to use the pokemon they went through the game with.

tl;dr we need wifi separated into "competitive" and "noncompetitive", even though it would be impossible to enforce
 
What you say is true, the other annoying part is there's almost no reason to raise a legit poke anymore, everyone on wifi hacks or RNGs out the wazoo (I had someone use thunder wave on me with a Bisharp before my Aqua Jet took priority, causing me to lose the fight due to paralyze..) and RNG is apparently acceptable so now there really is not a reason to be legit. I IV bred, bred for moves/abil/nature, farmed shards and EV trained all of my team legitimately, yet somehow I still feel slapped in the face by RNG being acceptable.

I'd also like to add a couple to the "see these every game" list

Tyranitar, Cresselia, Latias/os, Heatran, Scizor, Garchomp, Salamence, Politoed, Metagross, Tornadus, Landurus, [[Rotom, lv. 1 Aron]]

The saddest part is beating these double-team matchups with pokemon that are "lessers" comparatively, such as my Flygon vs. Garchomp. I shouldn't be able to win Flygon vs. Garchomp, but I manage it, and that only proves to me that somewhere, there's people posting double-battle teams with movesets, and 90% of the people on wifi use them.

To this day, I have seen only ONE person without any of the above-mentioned pokemon on wifi.
