the team i said i had completed in the Wi-Fi thread. and as I've said it is a rain (couldn't find room to place politoad...)


greninja @ expert belt
protean, timid
252 speed, 252 sp attack
scald
extrasensory
mat block
dark pulse
help manectric set up rain dance and try to take pokemon that are faster than manectric but slower than greninja


manectric @ manectite
lightning rod, modest
252 speed, 252 sp attack, 4 sp defense
rain dance
protect
thunder
snarl

set up rain dance and block all electric attacks that don't hit multiple targets i was debating on what to give for his fourth move

azumarill @ choice band
impish huge power
252 attack, 252 def, 4 hp
waterfall
superpower
play rough
dig

the attack on azumarill is still amazing even without having adamant as a nature and can take out targets that don't have good defense

kingdra @ scope lens
modest sniper
252 sp attack, 252 def, 4 hp
scald
surf
ice beam
dragon pulse

in case manectric is still on the field i gave it scald but if they aren't I'll be using surf with lapras and gastrodon's ability. i want interested in a physical kingdra because I've never really liked outrage

lapras @ leftovers
calm | water absorb
252 hp, 252 def, 4 sp def
surf
Ice beam
substitute
thunder

essentially a defensive lapras with help from surf and leftovers

gastrodon @ damp rock
quiet | storm drain
252 sp attack, 252 defense 4 hp
dig
scald | surf (3rd move but my phone messed up format

rain dance

back up rain user and special bulk counter in combination with storm drain. dig is for stab but if it could naturally learn earth power i would teach it that..

i had a bit of trouble deciding on who should be on the team which is why politoad didn't get in. if there are need for edits I'm not going to do it on my phone because it hates swf's text box so I'll probably just make another post if i can't get to a cpu

This is my somewhat decent Rain team I built in 5 minutes. If you are able to get these pokes use them. If not then get rid of your entire team because 5 Water types is a really bad idea.

A few things about your team other than the worst team synergy ever. All of the pokemon you use are just bad pokemon. Politoed is by far the best pokemon for rain. You should have a pokemon which has a Fire weakness that holds it down. You need to have a Hurricane user to get rid of the grass types and a pokemon that can actually do something in the rain.

it held up pretty good against other players even though it is mostly water. it's not as bad with a few lapras and gastrodon worked well with each other both using their surf to heal and power up each other. and this is for x and y some of the ones aren't available yet and i don't have access to any of the therian forms, as well as manaphy which i had lost in my platinum version. and this is for Wi-Fi ranked i haven't seen any legendaries. either way I'm going to disbanded this team permanently and change it to my new team (it's more varied in typing...)

Oh crap, forgot this is Triples. You should try and work on your team synergy. but if you are getting rid of this team might as well just leave it as it is.
