Team for that special someone

stickly

Ive loved pokemon forever and my girlfriemd has never played pokemon but shes becoming interested by it. Ive been trying to make a team of her favorite pokemon but theyre all unevolve "cute" pokemon so i decided to make a little cup team in her honor.

Squirtle
Calm
Leftovers
252Def 252SpD 4Hp
Hydro Pump
Rain Dance
Toxic
Ice Beam

Squirtle is the main Rain Dancer of the team, being bulky enough to set up Rain Dance and Toxic, and with the rain, Hydro Pump will be 100% accurate with STAB. Ice Beam is to get rid of grass and dragon types.

Piplup
Adament
Choice Scarf
252Atk 252Def 4Hp
Waterfall*
Drill Peck
Brick Break
Rain Dance

My revenge killer/ extra Rain Dancer. Wterfall is STAB and rain boosted. Horn Drill is to take care of those pesky grass types who will ruin my team. Brick Break is there for extra coverage. Rain Dance just in case something happens to Squirtle.

Pichu
Timid
Choice Specs
252SpA 252Spd 4Hp
Thunder
Volt Switch
Grass Knot
HP Ice

My special sweeper. In the rain, Thunder is 100% accurate and gets STAB boost. Volt Switch is to get Pichu out of a bad situation and still do some damage. Grass Knot is to take care Ground/Rock types and HP Ice for grass types and Ground/Flying type (lookin at you Gligar).

Happiny
Impish
Eviolite
252Hp 252SpD 4Def
Thunder Wave
Rain Dance
Toxic
Return

This is my special wall of my team. Toxic and Thunder Wave are just good status inducers. Rain Dance is to keep the rain going. Return for some decent STAB damage.

Totodile
Adament
Sheerforce
Life Orb
252Spd 252Atk 4Hp
Waterfall
Ice Fang
Crunch
Dragon Dance

Sheer Force Life Orb Totodile... Yes Please! With all three of its attacks having secondary effects life orb wont do recoil damage. Life Orb Sheer Force Rain Dance STAB boosted Waterfall will rip through teams, dragon dance will boost speed and attack, and Crunch and Ice Fang provide good coverage.

Chinchou
Timid
Volt Absorb
Left Overs
252SpA 252Spd 4Hp
Thunder
Thunder Wave
Ice Beam
Hydropump

Volt Absorb to take those elwctric attacks that threaten my team. Thunder and Hydro Pump both have 100% accuracy in the rain and are both STAB boosted, getting great coverage and Hydro Pump gets a boost from the rain. Thunder Wave to cripple opponents, and Ice Beam for dragons and grass.
 
Hiya Stickly,

Unfortunately I don't have time right now to give you a full rate, but some things do stand out with your team. Notably, you find numerous legality issues in Little Cup due to it being played at level 5; for example, Sheer Force Totodile can only be obtained at level 10 and is thus illegal. In terms of the meta itself, it's no just throwing 6 cutemons together as many presume. If you're interested in getting deeper into the tier, here is the best place to start; it even contains a guide to rain teams to help you out. Otherwise the Little Cup Dragon Spiral Tower forums are also a source of a wealth of information.

Good luck!

If im not mistaken horn dril doesnt cover grass, its a normal type OHKO move, aka, banned. I think you meant drill peck which is listed on the set, scarf rain dance is interesting, how about aqua jet for boosted pokes/other scarfers?

Grass knot is useless in LC since they are all very light and light ball is better than specs on pichu, otherwise elekid outclasses this in every way

Munchlax does this better, happiny has terrible stats and lets leave it at that.

Sheer force is unrealeased :( 10/10 for using a totodile, great set and i think i forgot to mention, totodile is awesome! :D

Leftovers is no good, only heals 1HP, give it eviolite or oran

Overall a grass type kills your team while ground hits you fairly hard to, a team 4/6 being water typed spells trouble.

Also, the EVs at Lvl 5 dont work like at lvl 100 so reasearch on how they work because there are alot of EVs there that dont do anything and at going to waste when they could be put towards a precious stat point.

Nice idea with rain :) good to see originality lives
