Advance Skills w/ 120 power all comes w/ de-buffs as a way to limit their strength (regardless if it hits or not):
Water Torrent - Stun
Solar Smite - Stun
Psychic Thrust - Confuse
Super Thunderstorm - Stun
Super Firebomb - ATK stat reduction
Massive Boulder - DEF stat reduction
Aurora Borealis - MDEF stat reduction
Having said that the de-buff of some skills can be negated when cast during specific weather conditions, this is aside from the usual buffs you get from the weather skills:
Blizzard - Eliminates de-buff on Water Torrent & Aurora Borealis
Sandstorm - Eliminates de-buff on Massive Boulder & Super Firebomb
Celestial Prayer - Eliminates de-buff on Super Firebomb & Solar Smite
Rain Prayer - Eliminates de-buff on Water Torrent & Super Thunderstorm

In terms of ladder performance, the AI chooses the strongest skill in your monster's arsenal most of the time.. And if Water Torrent is equipped it would most likely be used..

With regards to your Pewgway getting beat-up by Ignightmare & Scythe, it might be because of the weather conditions:
Sandstorm - Reduces accuracy of all monsters that are not Fire & Earth
Celestial Prayer - Increases skills of Fire & Grass Type monsters by 50% while reducing all Water & Ice skills by 50% (regardless of monster type)

When it is in the ladder, My S turtle can only give appox 35% of S Pod-casted Scythe's total HP, while poison leaves by S Smiter can damage up to 50% of the same Scythe.
In terms of the damage dealt to Scythe, PoD (Power of Darkness) increases all monster stat, thereby reducing any damage dealt to those monsters (e.g. 50% on all stat?).. Factoring the said percentage increase, your skills will definitely deal lower damage because of the heightened stats.. Aside from the fact that if you're Water Torrent has been cast while Celestial Prayer is on..
For Smiter, it has a talent called Force 2 w/c increases the monster's ATK stat.. Again the percentage of stat is not disclosed by HM.. Given this and if Poison Leaves is cast while Celestial Prayer is on, it shall deliver much more devastating damage to Scythe than to your Pewgway..
