PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Water Gun + Weather Ball (Water) and Thunder

Water Gun is preferred for its superior energy gain compared to Tackle, in addition to STAB.

Weather Ball is a strong move for its low energy cost, gets STAB, and can be used frequently. Thunder is recommended for additional coverage, though it's not exactly cheap on energy. 

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 2 / 5

Rainy Castform is a mono-Water type with decent bulk. Access to the efficient move Weather Ball makes Rainy Castform rather unique, however having only one significant charge move makes it outclassed by the numerous Water-types who already compete for a roster slot. 

Ultra League: 0 / 5

Rainy Castform lacks sufficient stats to compete outside of Great League. 

Master League: 0 / 5

Rainy Castform could be used in Master League to represent the teardrops of defeat.
