Way to use Castform

Castform is famous for being a weather pokemon but doesnt have the power to be any other use. Kyogre is also famous for it's ability Drizzle but is under used because of it being Uber. So, I decided to make a special Castaform that can be very useful as a Support than an attacker.

Here's the set

Pro-Rain

1. Flash/Weather Ball/Water Pulse
2. Rain Dance
3. Thunder Wave/Surf/Waterpulse
4. Toxic/Weather Ball/Water Pulse

This is mainly to be used as a lead pokemon. Use Rain Dance IMMEDITATLY to get the Rain going. Then you can really start choosing.
Either Switch out and get out the Rain Dancer Ludicolo or Kingdra, Thunder Wave switch, Toxic switch, or Flash your opponent to death to force him to switch it out (after Thunder Waving it preferrably). Or you go with the other skills but keep one (or 2 for the flasher combo). Water Pulse is good for trying to Confuse your opponent that is already ailed with poison or paralysis or use Weather Ball to your advantage... if you dare...

This set goes well with pretty much all Rain Dancer sets and Water Sweepers for the power up. I like to use Ludicolo's Rain Dancer Set (and Kingdra's also) so I can attack first. Sorta helps Calm Minding Suicune and, like I said, all Water Sweepers for the power boost. This set prefers a Water team than a traditional balanced team.

For stats, Max Speed and keep hp at 300 and both defenses at 198. It prefers the Timid nature because Castform doesnt have any 'good' phsyical attacks.

And thats it, and thanks for your time.

PS- Dont flame if you havent tried it, and please go with my guidelines because it's pretty much useless otherwise lol

Edit: Forgot Castform cant use Surf, and I even had the movepool in front of me...

Just tested it, it did ok...
I still lost but it worked well, it got the Swift Swim and most of the time I attacked first

Prob is I had to face a Salamence and it was faster than me which is kinda expected

Test is proven, it works...
Even if it suicides, it helps more in the end. Unless your facing a sunnybeamer with chyllophrol, the speed helps. Also another thing about Castform is it cant be OHKO by Electric because it isnt Water untill the climate changes.
 
Honestly, no. There's a Castform analysis on the Strategydex with the most viable movesets. If you wanted to add anything you should've posted it in the analysis editing thread (not that it would help much now, since the SCMS is down). However this isn't really much different from what is stated already, pretty much the only real new thing is Flash which I find worthless. Honestly I've tried it.
