Good moveset for Kingdra?

I was thinkin' about:

Dragon Pulse - STAB, good accuracy and power

Ice Beam (TM) - good accuracy and power, may freeze

Flail (Breeding) - pretty cool

Surf (HM) - STAB, good accuracy and power

Perhaps dragon dance for his last move, his stats are perfectly rounded. from the moves you have, it looks like you're goinf for a sweeper, maybe have waterfall instead of flail (i said this instead of surf since dragon dance would power it up.) I would make more physical moves for dragon dance though if not I would use

dragon pulse/outrage
surf
agility
ice beam/flail

For His Last move, Surf. It ghas great power and STAB. Flail could be replaced, too, but its a good backup move. Flash Cannon is also an option. Also, try looking at this page: http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/4377/is-kingdra-better-than-gyardos

Surf: the god of the HMs.
Yup, Surf's BESTTTT!!
Totaly, though I use fly more.
Surf and fly are the 2 Hms you ALWAYS have with you, it's the 1st rule of pokemon.
Surf isnt needed as much as fly, though. Whirlpool and flash sucked
In generation 3 though, surf is really needed all the time.
Thats true, hoenn is the "surf region" Dive is kind of needed, too.

The King in Rain

- Flail
- Iron Head

The scariest Pokemon you'll ever face is Kingdra used on one of J98's Rain teams (or TorTran). This thing is just... wow. Waterfall and Outrage are all that are really needed. Iron Head and Flail are very situational. Btw, I meant the King IN Rain. Politoed and Kyogre are more the Kings OF Rain.

Kingdra
Trait Sniper
Moves;
Outrage
Dragon dance
Waterfall
Return

Max out friendship for return. Ev it in attack and speed, also give it the scope lense. Scope lense makes it have a high critical hit chance. Sniper powers up critical hits making a critical hit a one hit kill pretty much. Dragon dance makes outrage stronger.
