    had really impressed me and I began to like it.
    But I'm not really good at making a team and I'm not sure that this
    is a good team or not. That's why I need your help.Please rate my team.

  • Vaporeon is better off on dedicated Baton Pass teams, IMO.

    I don't think White Herb is that useful unless it's for Shell Smash. A specially-based set is better than a mixed one:
    -Hydro Pump
    -Draco Meteor
    -Surf/Ice Beam/Hidden Power (Fire)
    -Dragon Pulse/Ice Beam/Hidden Power (Fire)
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 24 HP/252 SAtk/232 Spe
    Item: Choice Specs
    Ability: Swift Swim

    I'd rather have Jirachi be more of a general supporter than a backup rain setter because I have something else better that I can suggest over Vaporeon (more later):
    -Iron Head
    -Wish
    -U-turn/Stealth Rock
    -Stealth Rock/Thunder/Body Slam
    Nature: Careful/Sassy
    EVs: 252 HP/236 SDef/20 Spe
    Item: Leftovers

    Tornadus is a better rain setter because of Prankster and the fact that its Hurricane never misses in rain:
    -Rain Dance
    -Hurricane
    -Superpower/Focus Blast
    -U-turn/Taunt
    Nature: Naive/Timid
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Damp Rock/Life Orb
    Ability: Prankster
