Background:
I wanted to use a team with Azumarill because with Ogerpon-Wellspring not being used as often Belly Drum seemed like a very good cleaner in this meta especially with the power of rain in the back. I added Archaludon because I wanted a special attacker and a special wall with the benefits of their signature move which was perfect for rain. Choice Spec Pelipper was appealing as it is a sleeper mon that hits hard with weather ball. Amoonguss with Red Card is really a life saver against certain threats and is my physical wall. Maushold is a very fun Pokémon for me and I wanted to have a encore user and something that can always get hazards off vs Gholdengo. Kingambit just a good revenge killer and cleaner in end game especially having a steel type under rain taking halved fire damage.

Azumarill @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Huge Power
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Play Rough

- Knock Off

Azumarill is overall a pretty good check for certain Pokémon. Belly Drum allows you to threaten the opposition and have the ability to end the game on the spot or force a defensive tera out the opponent. Knock Off is used over Liquidation mainly to remove Rocky Helmet so Maushold has the ability to Population Bomb easier, also having a way around Water Absorb Clodsire as well has hitting Toxapex and having a chance to OHKO. Play Rough is the strongest move that Azumarill has in its arsenal which has a chance to drop the attack of opposing Kingambits. The reason for Jolly nature is to almost always make sure you're out speeding Kingambit without the need to risking the 50/50 speed tie. Usually when Skarmory switches in they're assuming you are slower but you're able to Knock Off prior to the Iron Defense.

Archaludon @ Assault Vest
Ability: Stamina
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 200 HP / 252 SpD / 56 Spe
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Body Press
1704256198354.png

- Electro Shot

- Flash Cannon

- Draco Meteor
1704256245914.png


Archaludon is a very good abuser under rain thanks to Electro Shot. The 56 EVs in speed is used to outspeed bulkier Raging Bolt sets. Tera is for opposing Raging Bolts or certain Dragons that try to hit you can tera out of your weakness and be able to revenge with Draco Meteor. If you get enough Stamina boosts you'll be able to potentially sweep or clean up enough mons where you'll be able to setup for the rest of your teammates. Also Electro Shot is really nice vs Gholdengo under rain where you're able to setup your SpA boosts from a 130 powered move, it's able to 2HKO Gholdengo with no SpA investment. Flash Cannon is Fairy coverage and it's a good STAB in general. Body Press is for Kingambits or Blissey who come in try to revenge and obviously it gets stronger with the Stamina boosts. Draco Meteor vs Dragon Pulse is great for 1 time hits when needed and works much better most of the time since you'll be able to boost the SpA up again with Electro Shot or by switching out and repeating the process. The matchup versus Skeledirge they'll switch in, so Draco Meteor will force them to Tera Fairy from the damage output.

Pelipper @ Choice Specs
Ability: Drizzle
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Water / Ground
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Weather Ball

- Hurricane

- U-turn

- Knock Off
1704256098931.png


(awyp here) so I suggested this set for Vic since I saw that this team wasn't really needing the 7 turns of rain with Damp Rock. This team direly needed a hard hitting special attacker especially since it's usually unexpected. Choice Specs has some crazy calcs that I will share on the bottom, but we decided to go for Modest nature for maximum power. Tera Water is for Weather Ball can really break through certain calcs. Weather Ball is the move here because it's 100% accurate and 100 BP under the weather. Hurricane is also an amazing coverage move that is the obvious choice here with 100% accuracy under rain and the ability to confuse which makes Pelipper a hard mon to switch-in to. U-Turn is to pivot and see what the opposition switches into if it looks like an obvious switch that's not worth attacking in. Knock Off is good get rid of Leftovers from special walls, or anything with Rocky Helmet such as Corviknight (SpD variant).

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Torkoal in Sun: 145-171 (42.2 - 49.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Slowking-Galar in Rain: 220-261 (55.8 - 66.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Vessel of Ruin Ting-Lu in Rain: 408-480 (79.3 - 93.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Dondozo in Rain: 229-270 (45.4 - 53.5%) -- 39.5% chance to 2HKO

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 248 HP / 252+ SpD Clodsire in Rain: 468-552 (101 - 119.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO vs stall

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Gholdengo in Rain: 351-414 (92.8 - 109.5%) -- 56.3% chance to OHKO

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Hatterene in Rain: 316-373 (99.3 - 117.2%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO

252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 236 HP / 0 SpD Kingambit in Rain: 372-438 (93 - 109.5%) -- 56.3% chance to OHKO

Kingambit @ Leftovers
Ability: Supreme Overlord
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Kowtow Cleave
1704256093259.png

- Swords Dance
1704256059181.png

- Low Kick
1704256201442.png

- Sucker Punch
1704256095152.png


Kingambit is pretty much self explanatory, one of the best Pokemon in the OU tier. The best revenge killer / clean up Pokemon which is the reason it's slapped on the team. Kowtow is for the strongest STAB move to go on mid-ground plays. Swords Dance is to allow Gambit to be a threatening end game sweeper. Low Kick is for opposing Kingambits, and you scout Low Kick with Amoonguss. You only will tera fighting against stall so you're able to beat Dondozo after a few fallen allies with Low Kick. Being under rain is super good against things like Volcarona, Heatran and Iron Moth so it doesn't OHKO. An optional piece to this is going for Lum Berry over Leftovers but it's purely based off of preference.

Maushold @ Wide Lens
Ability: Technician
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Tidy Up
1704256064171.png

- Population Bomb
1704256062099.png

- Bite
1704256089131.png

- Encore
1704256065961.png


Maushold can also be a lead and force Sticky Web users to switch out or Stun Spore, and you can spam Population Bomb. The majority of the OU metagame gets 1 or 2 shot by Pop bomb, Maushold also forces a 50/50 where if they switch you can get a free Tidy Up and if they go into a Ghost (Bite) will have a chance to beat them with flinch. It has good utility when it comes to Encore so it can setup or force a Pokémon out, which allows you to get a free Tidy Up out of it. Tera Ghost to deal with Dragonite (Extreme Speed) as well as Skarmory Body Presses as a long as Rocky Helmet gets removed since you can just infinite encore, this is also the case with Zamazenta if you're able to catch a Body Press / Close Combat.

Amoonguss @ Red Card
Ability: Regenerator
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 27 Spe
- Toxic
1704256233875.png

- Foul Play
1704256086055.png

- Grass Knot
1704256160141.png

- Sludge Bomb
1704256233875.png


Amoonguss is your main physical wall and he can be your lead depending on your opponents team structure. For example if they lead with Cinderace with max attack you'll be able to live a Pyro Ball and get a free Toxic. Grass Knot is here to deal with Dondozo, Garganacl and Great Tusk. Foul Play is to punish Dragonite and the occasional Wellspring if they plan on setting up on you. Sludge Bomb is a good STAB move especially when it comes to dealing with fairies and Ogerpon-Wellsprings. Most the time you want to save your Red Card for any of the new Booster mons or any setup mons in general that is looking threatening. The reason for Tera-Water is really good versus Weavile and Meowscarada, some optional teras would be Tera Ground or Steel if you need it, Tera Ground is to take on Raging Bolt if it plans on Electric spamming your team, Tera Steel is a good mid ground vs Weavile, Meowscarada and Kyurem. Clear Smog over Foul Play is also another option you can swap out. Eject Button is also another option for Amoonguss for a quick pivot if you want to play faster.

Threatlist:

:raging-bolt: - Its the biggest counter to the team, and if has a Booster Energy in SpA, Red Card is your best option against it. Archaludon is a great switch-in and forces a tera and if you're able to catch it going Fairy you can hit it with Flash Cannon. If they're running max bulk you can get a Play Rough on it since sometimes they're not enough speed for a Jolly Azumarill.

:skarmory: :blissey: / :Milotic: Stall - This is the only stall I tend to struggle against, it can be a very long game. It's usually 50/50 depending on your plays, getting the Knock Off on Skarmory is huge and have Population Bomb eventually beating it with Tera ghost.

:Kyurem: - Is the 2nd biggest threat to the team, Freeze Dry spam with Choice Specs hits everything and if you get frozen it starts spiraling out of control pretty quickly. Keeping Maushold alive is your best way to beat it. Maushold can OHKO it (If it doesn't have Chilly Reception support).

Nice team bro, I'm glad I can help with the Pelipper set. This team is very fun to use and I'm a fan of it. I prefer Lum Berry on Kingambit but outside of that I probably keep everything the same. Congrats on the double peak!
 
252+ SpA Choice Specs Pelipper Weather Ball (100 BP Water) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Vessel of Ruin Ting-Lu in Rain: 408-480 (79.3 - 93.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

This is insane and I just stepped into a huge puddle while writing that.
Rain with Azu instead of Barraskewda is a really good Idea.
