But your team is very successful without reuniclus so don't mind me haha

Any decent BW2 OU team (aside from hyper offensive teams) needs at least two Water resistances to avoid being completely demolished by Rain teams. With the re-rising popularity of powerful Rain abusers such as Specs Politoed, LO Starmie, Specs/LO Keldeo, Specs/LO Latios, etc., a team can never be too prepared for strong Water-type attacks coming their way. Without a specially defensive Tyranitar to rely on, Doom's team requires both SDef Rotom-W (a defensive answer to the above threats) and LO Latias (an offensive answer) to avoid losing outright to Rain offense. Sun is more easy for Doom to check, considering he has both Hippowdon and Latias for Sun teams to reckon with, as well as Pursuit Stoutland to catch Ninetales off-guard and rack up damage. I understand where you're coming from when you suggest Reuniclus; however, it's not a great fit for Doom's team.
