Swampert is bulky enough to set up its own rain and easiely outspeed the whole unboosted metagame.
Swampert@Swampertnite
Ability: Damp (<- able to switch into Explosion and Torrent won't come into play anyways)
Nature: Adamant
252 Spe / 252 Atk / 4 Def
- Rain Dance
- Waterfall
- Earthquake
- Ice Punch
This is the set, which is hyped the most in OU, simply because you can't rely on Politoad giving your opponent a possible switch advantage. And I think this works well in UU as well. Swampert has only one huge weakness and if you allow Swampert to set up, it is pretty much over unless you can catch Swampert on a predicted switch.
The reason I am saying that is, what really can reliabily counter or hard check it?
