None of your posts are cohesive. You ask one thing and then add another without specifying anything and you expect us to read your mind.
Before you keep asking similar questions such as these (and you've been doing this for quiiiitteee some time), take some time to do just a little bit of research. You're on a Pokemon site with huge amounts of resources, and then there's always Google.
Most of your "This or this?" questions would be better answered by you just testing each on a team on a simulator and seeing which works better for you. We could sit here all day and give you hypothetical and theoretical decisions for these and they still might not help you at all.
Sorry about that little tirade, but this isn't the "let others think for you" thread.
Both are still legal and not suspects. However Drizzle + Swift Swim are no longer allowed to be run on the same team, as Rain was found overpowering last testing period. There seems little movement to make Drizzle Uber with this restriction in place, but time may change that.
Drought was nominated but did not achieve even suspect for Uber status last round, I presume it may be nominated again this round but we shall see.
*cough*Rain Stall*cough* And other things.
It boosts the power of Water attacks.
Boosts Water-type moves, halves Fire-type moves, makes Thunder and Hurricane never miss, activates Hydration by the end of every turn, activates Rain Dish and Dry Skin.
I'd say it's quite good, even without Swift Swim.

Is there anywhere that I can find a comprehensive list of released DW Pokemon? THe one made by skarm hasn't been updated since november...
lol ok thanks I really didn't know that.
I think I already know the answer to this one, but just to be sure, I'll ask anyway.
When the European shiny legendary gerbils come out over WiFi, will I be able to download them even though by that point I'll have downloaded all three American equivalents at GameStop? On the same game, I mean.
Like, when they start distributing Raikou, will I be able to get it on the same games on which I got the GameStop Raikou, without having to restart?

I think so.
Hey, what does iirc mean?

Thanks Random! Wow, I feel dumb. o3o
You can abuse its passive effects. Say you want to use a defensive core of ferrothorn/jellicent/zapdos. Under rain, ferrothorn only has a 2x fire weakness, jellicent gets double water STAB and a 4x fire resistance and zapdos gains a water weakness, a fire resistance and a 100% accurate thunder. You can abuse tornelos' STAB hurricanes with 100% accuracy, use defensive scizor with roost much better and cripple fire types offensive presence.
i just recently heard that a ditto lead w/ eccentric is illegal, why is that?
Investing in Speed on a Ditto is completely pointless; it copies the Speed stat directly from the pokemon it transforms into. To use Ditto, just dump 252 EVs into HP, because that's the only stat that Ditto doesn't copy when it transforms.
??? It's not...
@ cosmicexplorer ty i guess it was just a couple of noob talk...
It is. Eccentric is an un-released ability.
The question was whether Ditto leads are illegal, not Ditto itself, so I assumed the user was referring to the Dream World tier. Ditto is if course illegal on Smogon's Standard OU ladder.
