Thread: Drought vs. Drizzle!

As much as I can't stand Water-Types, I voted for Drizzle. I always liked rainy weather.

Rain teams are naturally the current strongest weather teams in competitive battle. I use a "Mud" team on Pokemon Black (mix of Sandstorm and Rain) and I know there is nothing like my Swift Swim Kingdra in a Sun team XD

This would be the main reason I vote over Drought for Drizzle, but it's not to say that a Sun Team can't be powerful.

No, it doesn't. Swift Swim Kingdra in Rain = the most devastating Pokemon out there. Plus Water-type moves get a significant boost and Thunder becomes 100% accurate, so your coverage is great. The only person in this current gen who can stop Rain teams in their tracks is Gastrodon.

Rain Dance only benefits swift swim users and Thunder accuracy, and that's about it.

I like both. Both have some devastating sweepers.
