How bad is this rain team actually? I've never had any experience with weathers other than sand so this is a first. This is on wifi battles on usum game and not showdown. Also no legendaries because that's the agreement we have on our group
Pelipper @ Damp Rock
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 252 HP / 100 Def / 156 SpD
Bold Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Defog
- U-turn
- Roost
My rain setter. I have no idea what the ev spread should be so I just put it in the defensive stats because I need this one to stay alive as much as possible since it also serves as my defogger
Vaporeon @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Hydration
EVs: 248 HP / 180 Def / 80 SpD
Calm Nature
- Toxic
- Rest
- Scald
- Roar
My physical wall. Rain + hydration means Vaporeon just laughs at status. Rest for its recovery move because of hydration. I just gave it calm nature so it has a bit more spd. Roar is for anti boosters and toxic so it can cripple walls
Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 248 HP / 80 Def / 180 SpD
Careful Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip
- Protect
What rain team would be complete without the rain's number one fan? This one is my special / mixed wall and stealth rock setter. Leech seed with protect is so this one can also stall the enemy while at the same time healing itself
Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
Ability: Rain Dish
EVs: 248 HP / 156 Def / 104 SpD
Bold Nature
- Toxic Spikes
- Protect
- Rapid Spin
- Scald
My rapid spinner of choice in case it becomes too risky for Pelipper to defog. I made this one defensive because it's job is toxic stall. The plan is this one goes into the field before vaporeon so it can setup both toxic spikes layers. Like Ferrothorn, this one is also to stall opponents poisoned by the spikes
Dragonite @ Life Orb
Abiltiy: Multiscale
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Hurricane
- Thunder
- Roost
- Ice Beam
I hate this pokemon so much. I only chose this one because I need someone who has access to both hurricane and thunder and Dragonite was the only one that came to mind. Roost is for self healing and ice beam just for coverage
Swampert @ Swampertite
Ability: Damp >>> Swift Swim
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Power-Up Punch
- Earthquake
- Waterfall
- Ice Punch
My mega of choice. I gave it power up punch over anything else so it can have a move that increases it's attack. I transferred this one from my omega ruby game to my ultra moon so that it can have power up punch. Other moves should be self explanatory
