I thought of this idea for a Politoed tank that i'll be using in my UU RainDance Team, i'm not sure whether it will work and any feedback would be highly appreciated.
Kermit (Politoed) @Chesto Berry
Adamant Nature (+Attack, -Sp.A)
200 Sp.D, 252 Hp, 56 Attack
~Belly Drum
~Rest
~Ice Punch
~Waterfall
So what it's basically meant to do is to set up Belly Drum, then use rest. The Chesto Berry will then wake it up and it will proceed to cause massive damage to the opponent. What do you think?
The whole point of a Belly Drum Politoed is to sweep, so there's no point using Rest, or a Chesto Berry, and, I don't really like Politoed in general, but if you insist on using one, use this set.

Water Absorb
Jolly Nature (+Spe, -SpA)
252 Atk, 6 SpD, 252 Spe
30 HP IVs
- Belly Drum
- Substitute
- Waterfall
- Ice Punch/Return
This set allows you to Belly Drum, in a sub, trying to max your speed for a sweep.
Personally, I wouldn't use Politoed, especially in a Rain team, since there is plenty that can outrun this set, even with the max Speed and Salac berry. If you still need a Physical Attacker that needs to be fast, I'd Recommend using this thing.

Swift Swim
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA)
252 Atk, 6 Def, 252 Spe
- Bulk Up
- Waterfall
- Ice Punch
- Crunch/Brick Break
This thing still has minimal set-up but gets that much wanted speed boost in the rain.
Crunch or Brick Break is really up to personal preferance. Crunch gives you type coverage over Alakazam, but Brick Break stops others from ruining your sweep.
