Why does GF hate Lumineon so much?

Because it's obscure?
I like lumineon.
Who uses lumineon? Can anyone give me a set?

they forgot about it, and thus forgot to give it the move. when they made lumineon, the point of it was to be forgettable. they did too good of a job.

Rain Dance + Swift Swim or pairing with Drizzletoad and spamming Surf/Scald is the most obvious strategy.

If you play doubles, pairing it with another Surf-spammer to trigger Storm Drain can be fun (especially if the partner has a similar move like Water Absorb)

Its old niche of setting up for other Swift Swimmers and U-Turning out is pretty useless now.

But yeah, it's pretty shitty.
Coolest animations in the game, at least

Would running soak be a little too quitoxic for Lumineon?

Soak isn't entirely useless in doubles; it can severely cripple pokes that rely on their typing, and allow Electric or Grass partners to take them out. Dry Skin Heliolisk would probably be ideal for that role, assuming it lives long enough to do anything.

Don't even bother with Soak in singles, though.

This. There are some strange combos that have their niche in Doubles. Also, Soak + Shedinja can beat entire teams...

It's like my bro Luvdisc
It can do one thing (and only one thing) well, and it can only do it in doubles.
In Lumineon's case, that is Storm Drain or Swift Swim. In Luvdisc's - it's the only Swift Swim user with access to Entrainment.

I actually run
Lumineon@ Life Orb
Timid 252Spd 252SpecAtk 4HP
Defog
Ominous Wind
Ice Beam

It's random, but funny when it actually works.

Running Storm Drain so that you can switch in on water type moves for a boost.
