Well the last team i made was a sandstorm team this time it's a rain dance team. Unfortunately I don't have kyogre's drizzle.

Floatzel @Choice band /Life Orb /Leftovers /Damp Rock
EV's: 252 Atk / 72 Hp / 62 Def / 104 SDef / 16 Spd
Adamant
Swift Swim
- Brick Break /Rain Dance
- Waterfall
- Ice Fang
- Crunch

Smogon of course not my lead if you thought it was. 16 is enough evs for speed considering swift swim. Choice band has power but relies too much on rain dance.

Kingdra @Life Orb /Choice Specs /Damp Rock
EV's: 168 Atk/ 252 SAtk / 88 Spd
Naughty
Swift Swim
- Rain Dance /Draco Meteor /Dragon Pulse
- Waterfall
- Ice Beam
- Surf /Hydro Pump /Dragon Pulse /Draco Meteor

Like above except it's special based. Hp thunder could be an option.


Electrode @Damp Rock /Focus Sash
EV's: 252 SAtk /252 Spd /4 HP or 252 Atk / 28 SpA / 228 Spe
Timid /Lonely
Static
- Explosion /Hidden Power [Water]
- Thunder
- Taunt /HP [Water]
- Rain Dance

Most likely going to be a lead. Fastest rain dancer unless you count scarfers xD I through HP water in there for lead hippos. Thunder gets 100% accuracy thanks to rain. Explosion is meh but might be helpful against blissey. Lonely goes for explosion and the second set of evs and timid goes for HP water and the first set of evs.

or

Bronzong
EV's: 252 HP /100 Atk /156 Def
Relaxed
Levitate
- Gyro Ball
- Earthquake
- Rain Dance /Hypnosis
- Stealth Rock /Light Screen /Reflect /Hypnosis

An alternate for electrode instead of coverage bronzong provides defense for grass types. Again HP water might be an option thanks to rain dance. And because of rain dance flamethrower is weakened so yeah.

Roserade @Focus Sash
EV's: 252 SAtk /252 Spd/ 6 HP
Timid
Natural Cure
- Energy Ball
- Weather Ball
- Rain Dance / Hypnosis /Aromatherapy /(insert attack)
- Rain Dance / Hypnosis /Aromatherapy /(insert attack)

Not as good as electrode but she can qualify. Since i don't have a cleric roserade is an option. Weather ball and making flamethrower weaker is the only thing roserade is good for in rain dance. An alternate for this is ludicolo.

Vaporeon @Leftovers
EV's: 188 HP /252 Def /68 SAtk
Bold
Water Absorb
- Wish
- Surf
- Substitute /Ice Beam /Toxic /Acid Armor /Baton Pass
- Substitute /Ice Beam /Toxic /Acid Armor /Baton Pass

Since i don't have healing i can use wish. Baton pass could be an option but only with acid armor or ice beam

Swampert @Leftovers
EV's: 252 HP /152 SDef /64 Atk /Def 42
Careful
Torrent
- Roar
- Stealth Rock /Toxic
- Waterfall
- Earthquake

Haven't used this guy in a while. Toxic if i decide to use bronzong's stealth rock. Waterfall gets stab and rain dance :D

For picking rain dance i think i should have maybe 2 and 3 at most whatever is recommended.
