Water Themed Team : RMT
I've always been passionate about water-types, and I know that themed teams usually fail in copetitive battling. But this team is just for fun that I will probably use on PBR's Wi-Fi. So bear that in mind when you rate. It's a Water-type Rain team, I guess. Most of them are pretty standard, except for my own variant of DDGyara, which works in my current team, but it may not in this one. I may replace Suicune because it's gonna be a pain to get my hands on a good one.
Kingdra (M) @ Damp Rock Ability: Swift Swim EVs: 120 HP/138 Spd/252 SAtk Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Rain Dance - Surf/Hydro Pump - Ice Beam - Hidden Power [Electric]/Draco Meteor Rain starter. Undecided on whether to strain myself and breed for HP Electric, or just be lazy and get Draco Meteor. --- Gyarados (M) @ Focus Sash Ability: Intimidate EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Waterfall - Taunt - Earthquake - Dragon Dance Physical Sweeper. Again, my own variant. If I should rebreed for the standard DDGyara then I will. --- Ludicolo (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Swift Swim EVs: 204 HP/104 Spd/78 SAtk/124 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Hydro Pump - Ice Beam - Leech Seed - Grass Knot Tank thing. Takes any Electric moves that my team draws very well. --- Starmie @ Leftovers Ability: Natural Cure EVs: 172 HP/216 Spd/122 SAtk Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Hydro Pump/Surf - Thunderbolt - Rapid Spin - Recover Standard Bulkystar I think, hm? --- Suicune @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SAtk Bold nature (+Def, -Atk) - Calm Mind - Surf - Rest - Roar Teh beast. Also pretty standard I believe, but like I say, it's gonna be a pain to find a good one. --- Empoleon (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Torrent EVs: 252 HP/6 SAtk/252 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Surf - Ice Beam - Grass Knot - Stealth Rock Special Wall. Standard again. Yeah, I'm unimaginative =/ --- All critisism accepted. The two in this team that could be replaced are Gyara, because I use him in my standard team so I don't wanna see too mkuch of him, and Suicune, as stated. Suggestions for replacements welcomed. |
Bumping this up so it can be seen =[

Well, this team is more of a Water-type team than a Rain Dance team, so I'd like all my Pokemon to be water type. I was thinking about replacing Suicune with Vaporeon, but as you say that doesn't help with the Electric weakness. I need a Pokemon that is good at taking Physical hits but isn't weak to Electric. I also need a good moveset for a DD Feraligatr, who I am going to replace Gyara with.

There are always the basics: Forretress, Donphan etc.
Other than that, Zapdos (Roar), Electivire, Jolteon, Dugtrio (Great in this situation). I would say "See Ooka for Feraligatr", but he would get back to you too late. [email protected] Adamant 28 HP, 252 Atk, 228 Spd Dragon Dance Ice Punch Waterfall Earthquake ~T_S |
A good moveset for feraligatr is
Ice Fang Aqua Tail Crunch Surf |

Oh yes, I've had one or two experiences against Ooka's 'gatr. Could Cursepert work in place of Suicune? Absorbs electric attacks at the cost of a 4x Grass weakness.

Hmmm, but then Celebi lol's at it and Gyara. If you like you can use it. Also, I would much rather a second Rain Dancer. You can make Ludicolo one and remove Leech Seed. Kingdra is too frail to be your only supplier. Ludi does a fine job. Bronzong is a common lead for Rain teams.

Meh. I like T-Wave Gyara. It could always work well for things that outspeed Swift Swim.
Also, Lefties / Life Orb > Focus Sash on Gyara. I'd also run Ice Beam / HP electric in that last slot, since 1.) You're running Calm Mind. 2.) Bulky Waters will just LOL at you. 3.) Spikes is just better to run Roar with, overall. This team doesn't really require SR anyways. |
For some reason, my screen shows everyone as a moderator ._. (including myself)
I wouldn't really count on Focus Sash on Gyarados, I've seen a Gyarados survive a Thunderbolt from a Starmie before... Leftovers is certainly the way to go with it. (Sometimes, I'd put Wacan Berry on Gyarados.. but then I also went with Light Screen) Focus Sash on a Gyarados... just seems risky, you are unable to take out Gyarados with the opponent is not using a Ground-based move. |

But I'd really go Surf over Hydro Pump on BulkyStar. |
