There are many abusers of rain outside of those that you listed. Pretty much anything that could do with a boost to a Water type attack, have a 100% Thunder/Hurricane, lose a fire weakness, or set up Rain Dance if Politoed faints.Pretty surprising to see Politoed's main supports so far down the line. Thundurus is arguably the most dangerous Pokemon in the metagame (even outside of rain) and Tornadus rips holes into teams under Rain.Code:+ ---- + --------------- + ------ + ------- + | Rank | Pokemon | Usage | Percent | + ---- + --------------- + ------ + ------- + | 15 | Thundurus | 57828 | 9.6495 | | 20 | Starmie | 49991 | 8.3417 | | 32 | Tentacruel | 31247 | 5.2140 | | 49 | Toxicroak | 23494 | 3.9203 | | 53 | Tornadus | 20586 | 3.4351 | + ---- + --------------- + ------ + ------- +
I agree about Thundurus usage not representative its ability and that it is the most powerful in the OU metagame. Even unboosted, it can be hard to switch things into it.
