You don't need Quagsire, that was a side note. Quagsire serves as a great back-up in case you can't phaze with Dragonite (maybe it's dead?) and he drops a late-game set-up sweeper with you Dnite...

Jellicent is preferred because it pairs well with Forretress and Dragonite in terms of absorbing weaknesses well. Obviously it is great to have a spin-blocker, but you need that instant recovery...

It seems to me like this "Rain Team" is really just meant to create a shield to protect your teams overwhelming Fire Weakness. However, you can't trust things to Politoed if it gets killed by a...

I would suggest swapping out Rotom-W for Gastrodon. This will create a powerful anti-weather core, and allow you to rely on Gastrodon as a Special Wall. This can free up Heatran to maybe be a...

Without the STAB boost on those pokes with Flamethrower, you're not gonna have the cojones to take out Ferro. Trade the accuracy for the power boost and go with Fire Blast. I personally think...

That may be because of Mold Breaker, which means he ignores other people's abilities. It negates everything from Wonder Guard to Levitate.

This team would benefit from Zapdos being on it instead of Jolteon, but Jolteon is obviously faster.

Forretress is the answer to Toxic Spikes. You'd have to trade out Ferrothorn, but it's the easiest way to get a spinner in there without sacrificing set-up and a physical wall. The only other...

Rhyperior and Nidoking would make infinitely better Physical and Special Sweepers that get the advantages of sand. You can replace Tyranitar and Reuniclus/Slowking with those two.

Having a Gliscor reduces your problem with Bug, for one. Second of all, none of your pokemon are immune to Ground, so you'll have to take EQ's all day long - a Gliscor would negate that problem. ...

It doesn't matter, especially since it wasn't my set. If you were feeling overly generous I SUPPOSE you could say I recommended it, but I didn't make up that set.

Click my sig-link and just use my Jellicent from the team I've posted. I can burn with STAB Scald, Recover for HP, Toxic for Stallbreaking, and Taunt to make Ferrothorn useless when he switches in.

I'd swap Night Shade on Dusclops for Seismic Toss. Same thing, but it hits normies. Just means you can't use him against ghosts, which you wouldn't anyways.

Parashuffle Dragonite is by far and away superior to your Dragon-Tail Salamence. You don't even have to abuse Sub/Roost. You could still have the anti-Ferrothorn move.

Just in case you ever wanna play this with Item Clause on, I'd say put Black Sludge on Gengar instead of Leftovers. Same effect, only it screws over smart-ass Tricking Rotoms.
