Decent set, but it takes up a spot on the team, so you don't have much room for more gimmick sets.


Nidoking (Timid) @ Life Orb
Ability Sheer Force
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Earth Power
Ice Beam
Sludge Wave/ Focus Blast Flamethrower
Taunt/ Thunderbolt
You need Flamethrower to check Ferrothorn/Scizor/Forretrerss


Politoed (Modest/Timid) @ Choice Specs
Ability Drizzle
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Ice Beam
Focus Blast

U-Turn
Psychic/ Heal Bell
Thunder Wave/ Yawn
Thunder Wave support is a good option for your slower sweepers (Nidoking, Politoed)

Tangrowth (Relaxed) @Leftovers
Ability (Regenerator)
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Sleep Powder
Power Whip/ Giga Drain
Hidden Power Ice/ Earthquake
Leech Seed

I'm not sold on why you need Tangrowth when you don't have any physical attackers. I'm recommending swapping for Swords Dance Scizor since it can make use of a Smash Pass, as well as revenge kill


Whimsicott (Impish/ Bold) @Leftovers
Ability (Prankster)

Whimsy is a TERRIBLE wall, and your team doesn't have much room for gimmick sets with Huntail. If you want a wall try Ferrothorn or Skarmory.

I would love to have suggestions to make my team good but I would like to at least keep the Huntail,Nidoking, and Politoed.
Comments in bold. Overall it's very Scizor-weak (3 weak to Bug, only one resisting), and very specially-based with nothing that takes down Chansey/Blissey. Also, your team is on the slow side, so you might want someone with priority and/or a choice scarf for revenge killing.

You still have ZERO physical sweepers.

Trick Room won't work with Smash Passing; you're going to shoot yourself in the foot there. Try Thunder Waving with Uxie and Ferrothorn to fix speed issues.

And Nidoking NEEDS FLAMETHROWER

How about flamethrower over sludge wave/focus blast and thunder over thunderbolt since it gets the sheer force boost and it has 100% accuracy in rain?

with nidoking, why not run thunder as this is a rain team?

You might want to put choice band on something else, if you get locked into spikes and are shadow tagged/mean looked your ferrothorn won't last, other than that it looks solid

From Zero To Hero
Ok this the final version
Huntail (Jolly) @White Herb
Water Viel
EVs: 252 HP / 68 Def / 184 Spe / 4 Sp. Def
Shell Smash

Nidoking (Timid) @ Life Orb
Ability Sheer Force
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Earth Power
Ice Beam
Focus Blast
Flamethrower

Regardless of Sludge Wave getting STAB, Poison is a terrible offensive type. Use Focus Blast instead, gets great move coverage, though the accuracy is less than desirable.

Politoed (Modest/Timid) @ Choice Specs
Ability Drizzle
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Ice Beam
Hypnosis
Hidden Power Grass
Surf

Hypnosis is useful to shut down a potential counter, and Surf because he shouldn't risk missing, needs to stay around longer to maintain the rain.

Uxie (Impish) @Leftovers
Ability (Levitate)
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Stealth Rock
U-Turn
Heal Bell
Thunder Wave

Uxie is a support poke, not an offensive poke. U-Turn is fine to keep her from becoming Taunt bait, Heal Bell can help keep your sweepers healthy.

Ferrothorn (Brave) @ Leftovers
Ability (Iron Barbs)
Evs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Gyro Ball
Power Whip
Spikes
Leech Seed

Get more health each turn, stay alive longer. The Speed drop from Bulldoze is only going to make Gyro Ball weaker.

Scizor (Adament/ Jolly) @ Leftovers
Ability (Technician)
Evs:252 HP / 40 Atk / 216 SpD
Swords Dance
Bullet Punch
Bug Bite
Roost

Not exactly a good idea to have Superpower and Swords Dance on the same set, seeing as they counteract with each other.
