Azelf @ Damp Rock
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Rain Dance
- Taunt
- Thunder Wave
- Explosion
Azelf is my setup, his only purpose is to setup rain dance and explode.if i get rain dance in without him taking damage he can slow down my opponent and increase my chances of victory. If i get setup and feel capable of pulling him out and feel safe that my next pokemon will survive a hit i will save him in case i need more setup late game.
Scizor-Mega @ Scizorite
Ability: Technician
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- U-turn
- Aerial Ace
- Brick Break
Bullet Punch allows Scizor to check Xerneas and revenge kill weakened threats. Brick Break allows it to heavily damage Extreme Killer Arceus, as well as other Pokemon that are weak to Fighting-type attacks, such as Blissey, Mega Kangaskhan, and Rock Arceus. U-turn and Aerial Ace are for gaining momentum and disrupting switch-ins.
Politoed @ Damp Rock
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpA / 8 SpD
Modest Nature
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- Focus Blast
- Hidden Power [Fire]
Hydro Pump is the hardest-hitting attack of this set. Ice Beam is used for coverage against Flying- and Grass-types. Scald is used as a compromise between power and accuracy. Surf gives Politoed a spread attack, but Politoed will need a partner who can take it. Hidden Power Fire is used for coverage against his grass weaknesses.
Ludicolo @ Life Orb
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Scald
- Giga Drain
- Ice Beam
- Focus Blast
Due to this set's more defensive nature, Scald is preferred over Hydro Pump for its perfect accuracy and chance to burn your opponent. That said, if you want more power, Hydro Pump is still an option, as the extra power is noticeable; for instance, Hydro Pump has a good chance to 2HKO Tyranitar in sand, something Scald fails to do. Giga Drain complements this set, acting as an inconsistent form of recovery. It also allows Ludicolo to threaten Rotom-W, along with other Water-types. With Ice Beam, Ludicolo is able to threaten the common Dragon-types in the metagame and potentially break through the bulky Grass-types that would otherwise stop it in its tracks.
Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
Ability: Rain Dish
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 30 SpA
- Sludge Bomb
- Hydro Pump
- Acid Spray
- Dazzling Gleam
Hydro Pump is Tentacruel's main STAB move; its burn chance helps Tentacruel check and deter physical attackers. Acid spray lets Tentacruel check Calm Mind sweepers, such as Clefable and Suicune, by lowering their Special Defense so that they can be easily revenge killed or taken down by Tentacruel itself. Sludge Bomb can be used as a reliable secondary STAB move that lets Tentacruel check Azumarill and Clefable more easily, whilst Dazzling Gleam provides nice support and hits Gengar harder than Scald, which is useful for when it tries to spinblock Tentacruel.
Kabutops @ Life Orb
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Aqua Jet
- Rock Slide
- Waterfall
- Rapid Spin
Rapid Spin provides great team support by removing entry hazards from your side of the field. Stone Edge is a strong STAB move that has good coverage overall and hits Grass- and Flying- types very hard. It is also notable because it is not a contact move, so it will not cause Kabutops to take Rocky Helmet, Aftermath, or Iron Barbs damage from the likes of Garbodor and Ferroseed, both of which are common switch-ins to physical attackers. Aqua Jet is important to hit faster Pokemon and revenge kill Fire-types such as Typhlosion and Pyroar. Waterfall is a strong secondary STAB move that hits the bulky Ground-types that resist Stone Edge, such as Rhydon and Sandslash.
