This is a rain dance team so please any new pokemon that you think I should use keep in mind my main strategy. Also I intend to reproduce this team on my gameboy so please no hidden powers or substitude. All suggestions are appreciated rate away!

Zapdos @ Lum Berry
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 6 Def / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Protect
- Rain Dance
- Thunder
- Thunder Wave
Protect on my starters are there for those common exploders.
I put Lum Berries on most of my pokemon because thunderwave screws up swift swim.

Kingdra (M) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 42 HP / 216 Def / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Protect
- Rain Dance
- Surf
Same as above. Zapdos uses RD and Kingdra sweeps.

Kabutops (M) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 129 HP / 252 Atk / 129 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Aerial Ace
- Brick Break
- Rain Dance
- Rock Slide
This guy is like a better Dugtrio in 2vs2. He often ohkos most and hes very very fast with swift swim.

Jolteon (M) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Volt Absorb
EVs: 6 Def / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Protect
- Rain Dance
- Thunder
- Thunder Wave
I don't know much about Jolteon.. Thunderwave works nicely though.

Quagsire (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Brick Break
- Earthquake
- Haze
- Rain Dance
He is primarily a Hazer. EQ sweeps sometimes though, and it works with my team since most have protect.

Gorebyss (M) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 136 Def / 240 Spd / 134 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Protect
- Psychic
- Rain Dance
- Surf
Uh I dunno this seems to work, but couldn't think of anything better.

Hmm...3x Grass weakness...and while Gorebyss has some nice high Special, Kabutops and Quagsire are both done for on the off chance that your opponent has a strong Grass-type attack.

Well the truth is you don't see many grass pokemon in todays metagame. Specially in 2vs2. Usually the only special grass sweepers I see, but rarely at that are Sceptile and Exeggutor. Thats the reason my Kabutops has AA it can take those both out in one hit most of the time. Venusaur doesn't worry me either those are usually physical.

This will have to do...

You might wanna try a Damp Quaggy or Politoed if you get sick of 'Ploud...

Maybe some Waterfall healing on your own Water Absorb Pokemon?! And where is Turnish?! Oh and Destiny Bond Quilfish does a great job aswell! Skip Zapdos...OU legendary
