I'm making a rain team for Reg F, and I can't decide between Raging bolt and Baxcalibur as my dragon type, if it helps this is the rest of the team:

Archaludon (M) @ Sitrus Berry / Asualt Vest (can't decide)
Ability: Stamina
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Electric
EVs: 252 Def / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Electro Shot
- Protect
- Body Press
- Dragon Pulse

One of the classic archaludon sets. Citrus berry so that arch can stay on the field longer, electro shot to raise SpA and coverage, body press pairs well with stamina and dragon pulse is STAB. Tera electric increases the power of electro shot

Pelipper (F) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Drizzle
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hurricane
- Wide Guard
- Weather Ball
- Helping Hand

I honestly believe that pelipper is underrated, drizzle sets up rain, hurricane for STAB and can't miss in rain, which is always useful. Wide guard to help support archaludon in case of dazzling gleam + choice specs. Weather ball does great damage in rain and STAB and helping hand to support it's partner

Tornadus @ Covert Cloak
Ability: Prankster
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Tailwind
- Rain Dance
- Bleakwind Storm
- Taunt

Covert cloak prevents SpA from being lowered, tailwind is support, rain dance is if the rain from pelipper runs out(which has happened) bleakwind storm is STAB and a multi hit move and taunt counters amoongus and any of the like

Urshifu-Rapid-Strike @ Life Orb
Ability: Unseen Fist
Level: 50
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Surging Strikes
- Close Combat
- Protect
- U-turn

Surging strikes is STAB, as well as close combat, u turn is pivot and tera fighting to increase power of CC

Flutter Mane @ Choice Specs
Ability: Protosynthesis
Level: 50
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 248 SpA / 8 SpD / 252 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk
- Dazzling Gleam
- Thunderbolt
- Mystical Fire
- Shadow Ball

Dazzling gleam is multi hit and STAB, thunder bolt is coverage, mystical fire handles steel types and shadow ball is Stab

Here are the sets of raging bolt and Baxcalibur that I plan to use but they are not perfect

Raging Bolt @ Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
Level: 50
Tera Type: Electric
EVs: 244 HP / 252 SpA / 12 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 20 Atk
- Protect
- Electroweb
- Dragon Pulse
- Thunderclap

A pretty simple set, booster increase SpA, electroweb is speed control, dragon pulse is STAB and thunderclap is priority

Baxcalibur @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Thermal Exchange
Tera Type: Dragon
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Iron Head
- Dragon Dance
- Icicle Crash
- Glaive Rush

Iron head deals with fairies like flutter dragon dance is set up, icicle crash and glaive rush are both for STAB

Thanks in advance

You need to add descriptions and show a full team at least, but you should definitely pick Raging Bolt. Bolt abuses rain well and has priority via Thunderclap. Also, Flutter Mane is probably best Spec or Scarf. Tornadus doesn’t need to run Rain Dance since you have Pelipper.
For your comment on showing a full team, the question was basically about who should the 6th member be.
I’d go Raging Bolt.
The rules say you need to include a full team. The site is intended for rating teams, not teambuilding. You can get around this if you include a set for each Pokemon you're considering.
AV on Archaludon with more SpD investment. And give it Steel STAB with Flash cannon
