Hyperhydrosis


Zen

Recommended Posts

Hyperhydrosis is a disorder involving excessive perspiration, if I recall correctly. Seemed to fit the theme of multiple Hydration pokemon.

Made for OU Singles.

So, basically this team is meant to spam Hydration. Vaporeon's pretty standard for a Hydration piece, but with Stored Power to complement Acid Armor. Toxic can hit dark-types, so only drapion/bisharp/steel can block vaporeon.

Lapras is another handy Hydration piece that can wreck any dragons, and which can also slow down the enemy if need be. DD and Bulldoze is a sweet combination, it is.

Swanna may seem a little random, but he's also good with Hydration. Hurricane's also a decent means to handling ferrothorn/scizor, and has manual rain in case of opposing sand/sun/hail.

Sharpedo, gastrodon and politoed are standards as found on any rain team nowadays.

Since you're Dancing and not Cursing, Waterfall might be a viable option on Lapras, because of +1 or +2 and said STAB and Rain Boost tends to help alot.

Stored Power on Vaporeon wouldn't be the best because you're stuck with minimal damage because only one stat is boosted, which doesn't help, and you'd be stuck on Steel types.

You should try Stockpile on Gastrodon over Ice Beam, it annoys people.

Have fun

Hmm, did use the old Waterfall/Shard combo on lapras, but ferrothorn/jellicent tended to wall him. So I switched for Bulldoze, which does a little more to those two.

True, Stored Power isn't really maximized on vaporeon. As mentioned, come steel, vaporeon switches out for something else :)

Gastrodon with Stockpile... workable, but not really to my taste - Rindo Berry and Ice Beam help it to kill grassy opponents :D

i dont really see how you could beat a ferrothorn. he seems to completely wall your team. althought hurricane can make a dent, i might reccomedn some earthquake or hidden power fighting in there

@ Conor - Ferrothorn usually goes down to two or three Hurricanes. Usually, the confusion causes ferrothorn to hit itself at least once if there's more Hurricane being used. Plus, the power of Hurricane on swanna is 180 with STAB, so it leaves more than just a dent in the ol' durian.

@ Dragonite - Vaporeon and politoed serve that role.
