Pelipper is the team‘s weather setter. It also can hit pretty hard with hurricane to threaten opposing rillaboom, and has uturn to take a hit and pivot into Barraskewda or Raging Bolt.

Barraskewda flip turns for the entire game except the home stretch, which is a liquidation slaughter. Aqua Jet is for nabbing revenge kills outside of rain and outpacing priority moves. Close Combat to threaten threats like hamurott, but more than not you can just tera watee+ liquidation to ohko it, plus invalidates gholdengo switches. Choice band obviously because Barra is more frail than a piece of paper and has no boosting moves,

Rillaboom sets up grassy terrain to heal gambit and arch, plus can deal powerful revenge kills with grassy glide. Can ohko meowscarada with grassy glide. Wood hammer for dondozo, and is a pivot with u turn. Kind of a redundant check to dondozo but idrk what to replace it with.

Raging Bolt is the team’s primary answer to sun teams. When Torkoal is sent in, Bolt gets a free protosynthesis and one or two calm minds, then nukes 3 or 4 of their sun abusers (primarily dragons) with tera fairy+ dragon pulse. It also is good in the rain, boosting its thunderclap and thunderbolt. Also has thunderclap to beat valiant with.

Kingambit is a pivot for ice moves, which the rest of the team is weak to. It can soak up fiery dance from volcarona and get a +2 kowtow cleave to ko it with weakness policy. It can also be pivoted into weak super effective hits to gain a free boost and sweep. Basically an archetypical kingambit set sent out lategame to sd or take a super effective hit, then sweep.

Finally, Archaludon is a check for opposing rillabooms and raging bolts, can snowball with stamina and electro shot, and can drop dracos on raging bolt, great tusk, and more. Punishes grassy glide and triple axel, can stay in for a long time thanks to assault vest and grassy terrain heals, and can threaten fairies with flash cannon. Body press lets it ohko kingambit.

If you do use it, replace rillaboom with iron treads, i found way more success using it instead

 

[NotDaProGamer]

Any reason not using thunder on a rain team?

 

[PlacatedPlatypus]

IDK about how necessary Rillaboom is, it's good vs opposing rain but you have Archaludon and Raging Bolt. Would probably replace it with Iron Treads, since you're also lacking hazard control.

As far as Bolt, I'm not sure if CM is the best set for rain? I personally prefer Weather Ball + Thunder, but up to you.

I think it’s really good. However, it might be worth your while to invest in another Pokémon with Swift Swim or Drizzle, just in case Barraskewda or Pelipper faint

Having two Drizzle mons is redundant and literally nobody does it on singles.
The current team seems fine without a second Swift Swimmer.
