Reposting from earlier today. Looking for advice on rain team. Last member is kind of a toss up right now:
>Politoed: Scald/Ice Beam/Toxic/Encore
Basic frog. Summons rain and not much else. May spread AIDS or stop set up opponents if lucky. Can also function as sleep fodder, as Drizzle still activates.
Mega Swampert: Waterfall/EQ/Ice Punch/Stealth Rock
Physical swift swimmer that barfs rocks.
Kingdra: Waterfall/Outrage/Hydro Pump/Draco Meteor
Mixed swift swimmer. Nothing special.
>Klefki: Dazzling Gleam/Thunder Wave/Spikes/Rain Dance
Secondary rain support and all around asshole. A relatively safe switch for when I need to get Kingdra or Swampert out. Resists or is outright immune to their weaknesses.
Rotom-W: Hydro Pump/Volt Switch/Thunder Wave/Trick
For when Klefki needs to avoid ground moves but I still want to take advantage of the rain. Holds a Choice Scarf to utilize Trick, otherwise just spams Hydro Pump or Volt Switch. Thunder Wave is for after a successful item swap.
Thoughts so far? I need a 6th member, and I was thinking Guts + Assault Vest Conkeldurr to be a status absorber and to provide some priority. Suggestions?
