Just made this team and it’s been performing pretty well on showdown, but I was looking to improve it so here it is. https://pokepast.es/3259f416417e70f2
First is thunderous who serves as an electric resist and to stop any gimmick strategy’s with prankster taunt, as well as thunder wave. Grass Knot serves as coverage for rock types who want to hit thunderous super effectively, and thunder is guaranteed to hit in the rain and do lots of damage combined with life orb
second is Peliper one of the two rain setters, damp rock is given to ensure rain stays up for a long time. Hurricane always will hit in the rain and will do massive damage to anything in its path, scald is boosted in rain and the chance for a burn is always nice. Tailwind is given so the other slower Pokémon in the team can out-speed opposing Pokémon protect is given so Peliper can protect an electric move and it’s partner can try to kill it.
third is gyrados intimidate lowers opposing Pokémons health on switch in, it could be used to bait an electric move and pivot into thunderous. Ice fang is coverage and waterfall does good damage in the rain dragon dance is used to power up its moves and protect cam bait an electric move while gyrados’s partner can try to kill it.
fourth is kingdra who’s speed is boosted in the rain and is able to fire off massive special attacks with specs ( especially hydropump with the rain) special attack and speed evs are given to deal big damage and do it fast
fifth is Dracovish with strong jaw boosted fishious rend, crunch, psychic fangs, and leech life. Normally this set is run with choice scarf so Dracovish can outspeed and hit big with fishious rend but since tailwind should be up it doesn’t need scarf and instead is given band to do even more damage
and finally is politoad the second rain setter with earth power for electric types and focusblast and ice beam for coverage as well as rain boosted scald.
Let me know what you think on how I could improve it, and have a nice day.
