    Keep in mind I don't plan on playing super competitively at all, I mainly battle family and close friends. I picked this team to provide decent coverage and based it off of pokemon I just enjoy playing overall. With that in mind, any critique on current moves and what pokemon I should use for the 6th slot would be appreciated!

    1: Swampert (Nature: Adamant)
    Moves: Earthquake, Waterfall, Rain Dance, Power-Up Punch

    2: Gyarados (Nature: Jolly)
    Moves: Aqua Tail, Earthquake, Dragon Dance, Ice Fang

    3: Milotic (Nature: Modest)
    Moves: Ice Beam, Surf, Toxic, Recover

    4: Tentacruel (Nature: Timid)
    Moves: Toxic Spikes, Sludge Bomb, Ice Beam, Scald

    5: Kingdra (Nature: Modest)
    Moves: Hydro Pump, Dragon Pulse, Ice Beam, Scald

    6: Can't decide between Ludicolo, Walrein, or Pelipper.

    Any advice on the 6th member? Or possibly any suggestions on the current members and their movepools? Thank you all in advance!
     
    Pelipper can use Fly and Shock Wave, which might be nice for taking out other Water-types with super effective damage instead of just muscling through them. I used Pelipper and really liked it c:

    Also Ludicolo, which can use Grass-type moves to take out other Water-types! I don't think Walrein would do that much for your team because you have a lot of Ice-type moves already!
     
    7.8 too much water

    I'm not a competitive player and don't think I've even battled online so I'm not too suited to give team tips. All I can really say is that you seem to be doing a pretty good job covering up your weaknesses by giving out Ground and Ice moves to your team. I'd take the Ludicolo over Pelipper since it'll get STAB on Grass-type moves, whereas Pelipper won't get that for Shock Wave.
     
    Got it, so I can safely assume Walrein is out of the race then. :) I'm thinking of picking Ludicolo then due to STAB grass moves. If I roll with Ludi I think I will make him Calm natured, give him rain dish, and roll with Leech Seed, Giga Drain, Rain Dance, and Scald/or Ice Beam. Sound good?
     
    Id use Pelliper and Lanturn(or just teach kingdra an electric move i guess).

    Woops, forgot to reply. But I think that sounds good :)
