I'll try Breloom!
Breloom @ Lansat Berry
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpDef / 252 Spe
Nature: Adamant
- Swords Dance
- Bullet Seed
- Mach Punch
- Natural Gift
Breloom gives a rain team a decent answer to many of its defensive threats. It forces out bulky waters like Gastrodon and Tapu Fini easily with the threat of Bullet Seed, and with Swords Dance + Mach Punch, it can take advantage of the forced switches it generates to further pressure balance teams.
Natural Gift with a Lansat Berry becomes a 100 BP Flying move, which can punch through Tangrowth and deal solid damage to Mega Venusaur. Unfortunately, it needs +2 Atk and a little bit of prior damage to break Venu, but rain puts enough pressure on Venusaur that it won't often be at full HP anyway.
252+ Atk Technician Breloom Bullet Seed (3 hits) vs. 252 HP / 244+ Def Gastrodon: 732-876 (171.8 - 205.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252+ Atk Technician Breloom Bullet Seed (3 hits) vs. 248 HP / 192 Def Tapu Fini: 306-360 (89.2 - 104.9%) -- approx. 6.3% chance to OHKO
+2 252+ Atk Technician Breloom Mach Punch vs. 252 HP / 88+ Def Ferrothorn: 288-342 (81.8 - 97.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
+2 252+ Atk Lansat Berry Breloom Natural Gift (100 BP Flying) vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Tangrowth: 394-464 (97.5 - 114.8%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO
+2 252+ Atk Lansat Berry Breloom Natural Gift (100 BP Flying) vs. 232 HP / 180+ Def Venusaur-Mega: 316-372 (88 - 103.6%) -- 25% chance to OHKO
