And that stopped Weather teams in Gen 5 being packed with pokemon reliant on weather for their viability right?

GF will never rebalance the whole pokedex to make sure all pokemon are somewhat viable. So, it doesn't matter if new shit ain't viable.

1 turn of politoed for infinite rain isn't the same as having to bust out electric terrain every 5 turns to stay viable. The only way your analogy would make sense is if Tapu Koko's ability caused permanent terrain, which is super unlikely.

Even though I still don't think Alolan Raichu will be terrible, just sort of unviable outside of electric terrain, comparable to Kingdra outside of rain. Though Alolan Raichu + Tapu Koko should have the benefit of being able to volt switch back and forth, keeping terrain on the field relatively easily.
