I used: Porygon-Z, Togekiss, Spiritomb, and Metagross
My Opponent used: Pelipper, Ludicolo, Seismitoad, and Ferrothorn
Stadium: Standard
Battle BGM: Eternatus 2

While this might seem to be a good rain team that my opponent has, it is one of those Rental Teams that you can pick up from the Battle Tower, and this is one of two Double Battle Rental Teams, and this one is themed around rain, it does have some good Pokémon, like Pelipper to lead the fight, Seismitoad and Ludicolo both have Swift Swim and some good moves that can help in sweeping foes, and Ferrothorn is a good pick for rain teams, because while Pokémon is normally weak to Fire, rain does weaken Fire-type moves, making Ferrothorn a good choice to have on a rain team.
I did like how well my opponent did with a Rental Team in an online battle, so I had to be strategic during battle, like having Togekiss use Follow Me to try and redirect the attacks so that my Porygon-Z can get in some damage, and having Spiritomb use Snarl and Icy Wind to try and weaken my opponent's stats so they deal less damage with Special moves or move slower, although that can be dangerous against my opponent's Ferrothorn, which does know Gyro Ball and is holding a Choice Band, because with Rental Teams, they have set items, and the Pelipper does have a Focus Sash and not a Damp Rock as you would expect to see a Pelipper hold.
While it's not recommended to use a Rental Team from the Battle Tower online, these teams are kind of a way to get you into online battling, because most of which have different sets that are very popular in online battling, and the Battle Tower is there to grind BP so you can buy good items so that you can make your own competitive team. It's not like Pokémon Battle Revolution where the Rental Teams in that game are mostly Middle Stage Starter Pokémon, because in Pokémon Battle Revolution, the Rental Pokémon aren't even that good for online battles, as their Nature and stats are random, so you could get a bad Nature on one of the Pokémon.
