Have you seen the rain?

by AlexTheGreat VA

This team started as a fun, unconventional rain squad in the RU tier but after some early success I made a few minor changes and then after reaching 1400's undefeated, I decided to pass it over to you. As it is a rain team, it is very simple to play. Get up rain and win. What I love most about the squad is that it doesn't necessarily need rain to win as Metagross and Toxicroak can do their job in and out of rain. Uxie is hard to OHKO so can almost always get up rain. Banette has prankster to guarantee rain. Our 3rd setter is Seismitoad which has high HP stat and excellent typing and hence, easy to get up rain. The most difficult match-up is easily against Trick Room. The only real stop we have is Banette with Taunt. Metagross's typing is good against trick room teams and Sub/Bulk Up Toxicroak is good for stalling turns but that is really about it. I only played TR with this team one time and it was early in the ladder so it doesn't count. I do imagine that a solid trick room opponent would destroy us, but maybe you can prove me wrong. I still don't consider this a top tier team but it is definitely fun and has the opportunity to win most team match ups. Enjoy :)
