Decided to be a bit different with a rain team by not abusing politoed as i dont like singular types, dead weight pokemon and swift swim is just too good to pass up. So i decided to use rain dance instead.

Item: Life orb
Abilty: Swift swim
Nature: Modest
Evs: 254 sp att/252 spd/4 hp
-Surf
-Giga drain
-Fakeout
-Rain dance
This is my special sweeper and usual lead. Fake out to break sashes and priority, then set up rain dance. If rain dance is set up it gives a chance for a early sweep with stab life orb rain boosted surf. Also can counter poltoed leads with giga drain (great to be boosted this gen) which i actually like the opposing lead to be to get ever lasting rain.

-Aqua jet
-Rock slide
-Brick break
-Rain team
This is my physical sweeper and secondary lead. Hopefully can set up rain dance for a early sweep. Also there to counter tyranitar leads and ninetales leads and in a way abomasnow leads with brick break, aqua jet and rock slide.
Dragonite
Item: Life orb
Ability: Multi-scale
Nature: Quiet
Evs: 254 sp att/ 252 hp/4 att
-Dragon tail
-Hurricane
-Thunder
-Roost
This is my mixed tank which is used to take down anything that my team is having trouble with as it is very hard to one hit due to multi scale and can phaze them out if they are set up or just abuse 100% accurate thunder and hurricane. Roost to abuse multi-scale.
Parasect
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Dry skin
Nature: Impish
Evs: 254 hp/84 def/172 sp def
-X scissor
-Spore
-Leech seed
-Substitute
My staller which between dry skin leech seed and leftovers can actually gain health when subing. Spore is just amazing as it reliably shuts down threats and allows it to set up. X scissor is to clean up and to KO grass types that leech seed doesnt affect. Rain also reduces its fire weakness.
Lapras
Items: Damp rock
Ability: Hydration
Nature: Calm
Evs: 126 hp/128 def/128 sp def/128 sp att
-Ice beam
-Rest
-Hydro pump
-Rain dance
My wall slightly more sp def inclined which is my most reliable rain dance and can rest of damage with rest due to waking up instantly due to hydration. This works well with toxic. Frost breath is my chosen attack as even though it isnt as powerful as ice beam it goes through special defence boosts and light screen.
Forretress
Item: Light clay
Ability: Sturdy
Nature: Careful
Evs: 254 hp/252 sp def/4 def
-Toxic spikes
-Rapid spin
-Reflect
-Light screen
My wall which is just there to help my other pokemon ny spinning away stealth rock and the such as three of my pokemon are weak to it and it ruins multiscale and sturdy. Dual screens is surprisng for a forretress and max sp def means it can stay in easily to set up toxic spikes and screens.
