I believe Manaphy, for whatever reason, is considered uber.

Nope, just OU.

You need a few key pokes that can last on a water team-

Lanturn
Mantine
Tentacruel

Put those over Gastrodon, Empoleon and Kabutops/Slowbro

I could've sworn Manaphy was Uber.
Did that finally get changed?

 

[9Kplus1]

It was never Uber, there was a big discussion about it... it's just OU.

A good water type team should have a kingdra somewhere. And rain dance. I would get rid of kabutops and gastrodon for kingdra and tentacruel.

Good.

Although it has Aqua Jet, it's sweeping would be much easier with Swift Swim activated. And since this is a Water team (and you already have an Uber on it)...

Yes, Manaphy is Uber.

I'd like to see you use Surf, Recover, Mirror Coat and Counter. I heard that works pretty well.

It was and still is Uber.

Since you'll need a different Pokemon, I suggest Gyarados, which somehow takes away your big Grass weakness.
