Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
hmm the only real set I see having viability going for it is the choice specs to use it's great coverage, with ghost being very spammable stab especially, to make up for the lacking power it's counterpart has. Personally I'd place it in D as an option but very neich that can work in rain teams...
Always got basculegions feminine counterpart for special sweeper in the rain. All of the ghost/water typing fun but none of the overlap with the barracuda as it fills the physical role.

I'm sure there is a welcome to our sad irl reality there XD. No you are right, I do get having 5 problematic individuals that prevent each other being problematic, but at the same time are problematic for everything else yet remove one and everything falls apart like a bunch of Jenga blocks. Tis...

As suggested above by heatranator Overquil offers up a unique answer to these problems rain teams can face in absence of archaludon having to various support moves like spikes, swift swim ect. it certainly has a solid niech now that it didn't really justify it as much before the ban.
when one door closes another opens, i'd be interested to hear peoples thoughts on the rankings of other rain sweepers like kingdra now the competition has reduced.
