What should I replace then? Helping hand is important for Amoonguss and tailwind is my only way to deal with scarf Typhlosion sets

You already have helping hand on farigiraf (and I think farigiraf should be brought a lot with this team) and even if you did use it it only has less than a 50 percent chance of ohkoing the standard ammonguss set with sitrus with water spout however If you use ice beam however on blastoise instead of water pledge it would ohko the same ammonguss set after a helping hand (provides it doeant tera which then water spout would easily take it out)

(Even if you dont Ohko amonguss you had two psychics types in psychic terrain that can chip it so that it does die after a water spout )

So in total

Helping Hand < Wide Guard on pelipper

Water Pledge < Ice Beam on blastoise
 
i dont think so, in my dmg calc it says that it will indeed OHKO in doubles with +2 from shell smash, tera, rain and helping hand on a specially bulky amoonguss. the focus of it is to deal as much damage with spout as possible

in doubles level 50 btw
 
I think indeedee likes fairy, I could be wrong, but assuming they don't change terrain you are prankster immune. So for taunt and that, doesn't stop them setting tailwind or what not with say whimsi

I agree to get rid of water pledge, but could you tell us why it was there to start?

Dont know what I did wrong there but recheck ed yeah it actually does my bad
My point was tho that because you have another helping hand user and you have moms that chip ammonguss for decent damage (and if you use ice bram than ita a bit easier) you could deal with it

If you really want a second helping hand user I think replacing imprison on indeedee is the way to go. Just if you really struggle with spread moves the wide guard on pelipper your best option.

Edit: I forgor to add rain that was what I was missing

Esit2: I think pledge was the secondary water single target move that he would use when blastoise was low

Yeah I was thinking about that cause surf not worth it. Hm. It actually might be ok after all, if water immunes are rare in vgc. I still agree to use beam. Or maybe even grass pledge meow? Oh idk. I see the use but it seems like missed potential

bcs the team is inspired by Louisville regionals where blastoise made day 2
it had pledge bcs all rain and mystic water just made pledge better than beam

First Impressions
I really like the idea of building around Blastoise, especially with Shell Smash + Water Spout. The synergy with Indeedee (Follow Me + Psychic Terrain) and Pelipper (rain + Helping Hand) shows you really thought about setting up the conditions for it to shine.
pelipper set – very bulky with Sash, but it feels like it could contribute more utility.
Suggestion: replacing Weather Ball with Wide Guard helps your spread move issue a lot.
