Seems like its going to rain (DW OU)

Hello people, i'm new on this site and i recently tryed to make a weather team. I have chosen rain because i thought is would be eassy to make a team with that. Pleasse remember that i'm from belgium, my english is not perfect.

Politoed (M) @ Choice Specs
Trait: Drizzle
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Focus Blast
- Hidden Power [Grass]
Just a normal Politoad lead :) If the rain didnt work, i switch to one of my other pokémon who can deal with the openent.


Toxicroak (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Dry Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance
- Substitute
- Drain Punch
- Poison Jab
Whel, this guy is one healing machine. Getting HP from the leftovers and the rain is a big help. Also after a good set up with swords dance, drain punch takes the enemy down and keeps Toxicroak alive.



EDIT: seems like Thundurus is banned, ideas?



Tentacruel (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Rain Dish
EVs: 252 SAtk / 6 SDef / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Sludge Bomb
- Rapid Spin
Just like Toxicroak, this guy gains a lot of HP. With Hydro Pump all powered up he gets a great bonus. Sludge Bomb can poison oppenents and Ice Beam for coverage.



Mamoswine (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Icicle Crash
- Ice Shard
- Stone Edge
Mamoswine is my lighntingabsorbing monster. He strikes back with powerfull attacks. He indeed is slow, but Ice Shard already deals great damage to Gengar, Latios and Thundurus.



Dragonite (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Multiscale
EVs: 224 HP / 252 SAtk / 34 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hurricane
- Surf
- Thunder
- Roost
This special Dragonite just loves the rain. Hurricane and Thunder have great hitting ratio and Surf gets a nice boost. Roost also covers Rock weakness for a second.

I hope my english wasnt extremely bad xD Anyways, give me tips ;)
 
Ferrothorn walls this team to hell and back and can easily survive an unboosted Focus Blast from Thundurus, so I suggest you run HP fighting on Politoed instead, or at least give Toxicroak Cross Chop.

Ferrothorn is no big deal. I switch to Toxicroak and Ferrothorn always give me time to set up with Swords Dance. After two Swords Dance's Ferrothorn can't take a drain punch. Ferrothorn also gives Thundurus time to set up. I mean, Ferro uses substitute or Leech Seed in turn one, turn two is also one of the two. Turn three, substitute is broken. Turn four, bye bye Ferro.

+he cant take 2 Hydro Pumps from Poli.

EDIT: i have currantly changed Thundurus to this Gengar:
Gengar (M) @ Choice Specs
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Sludge Bomb
- Shadow Ball
- Thunder
- Giga Drain
