So, hello everyone, I'm new here in Smogon Forum, and...Yeah, I'm pretty bad at Pokémon, so I need your help to rate and possibly fix my Rain Team.
Thank you :)
Politoed (M) @ Choice Specs
It's great. It absorbs every Water type attack, and almost anything that could damage Gyarados and Politoed with its majestic typing. With Scald it creeps physical Attackers, and with Toxic provides to wallbreak. EQ is for Magnezone and friends, and Recover...Well...You know it.
This is my favourite anti-Mamoswine sweeper.
Substitute is a safe shield for StatUpping with Dragon Dance; Waterfall is the main STAB, and it reaches an insane power level after one or two boosts. Bounce is for guys like other Gyarados, or Dragonite, something like that.
Thank you :)
Politoed (M) @ Choice Specs
Trait: Drizzle
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Focus Blast
SpecsToed is really nice, I've tried it. STAB Hydro Pump Specsed under rain makes an enormous damage, so it's even better than the other coverage moves, unless I have to make a x4 attack. Ice Beam for Dragons, like Dragonite and Salamence, and not much else; as I said before, Hydro Pump is better. HP [Grass] takes out guys like Gastrodon, Quagsire, and...Why not? Wiscash. Focus Blast 2HKOs Ferrothorn.

Jirachi @ Leftovers
Trait: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 SDef
Sassy Nature (+SDef, -Spd)
- Thunder
- Iron Head
- Wish
- Stealth Rock
Jirachi is really good under the rain; Thunder gets 100% accuracy and makes parahax, and then i put the flinching Iron freaking Head. Stealth Rock is its best move on a switch, and Wish recovers its teammates. It's a pity it has got a low Attack, but defenses are more important, for it.

Breloom (F) @ Fight Gem
Trait: Technician
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Spore
- Swords Dance
- Bullet Seed
- Mach Punch
Techniloom is epicly perfect. It has got Spore, a 100% accuracy sleeping inducing move, and Swords Dance, the best attack boosting move. Than it's got access to Mach Punch+Technician+Fight Gem, that after an SD is incredibly powerful. Even Bullet Seed is useful, thanks to SD+Technician, and provides to kill Gengar and company.

EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 HP / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Draco Meteor
- Trick
- Thunder
- Surf
So, this is my revengekiller, Latios. He's got Draco Meteor, that crashes everything that doesn't resist it...More or less...Let's go on. There's Thunder, very useful under the rain, and even Surf finds an utility here. Finally, Trick creeps gusys like Chansey and Ferrothorn.

Okay, that's all. I'm italian, so I don't speak English very well. I'm sorry.
