Here's my preliminary movepool suggestion (may well change during the week). I started out by looking at moves that will allow our Spawn to deal with the weather setup users; Seed Bomb, Superpower and Earthquake do that well, hitting the targets super effectively (Seed Bomb may well be removed, as it may be overpowered). This, however, does not stop the weather, so it would need to run a weather move of its own to properly stop it. Therefore I gave it all the weather setup moves (still on the fence here; may be too far out in terms of flavor). Then, to boost the utility of a team support set that this Pokemon should be very capable of running, I gave it screens, Roar and Dragon Tail to complement its Spiking ability. A setup sweeper is also possible, with either Bulk Up or Swords Dance, depending on what your team needs. I'm right now thinking this may be an overpowered Pokemon, basically the best Swift Swimmer around.. I will be tweaking this and my base stat spread to balance. But here it is, I pulled out some very useful and kind of useful moves, and included the full list of moves at the end.

Aqua Tail
