This Kingdra is obviously offensive, almost bulky. In this case, I gave it leftovers as a held item, which would be the only way to recover lost health. In teams that have other water types that benefit from Rain Dance, this pokemon needs to lead holding the Damp Rock. Using this Kingdra is pretty simple, use Rain Dance and Waterfall if you can do normal or better damage against your opponent with water. If your opponent is water-resistant, use Dragon Dance and Outrage. Another handy thing about this Kingdra is if you have Rain Dance w/ Damp Rock but have been using Outrage that confuses it, you can switch out to a different water type in your party so it can benefit from the weather.
I organized the EVs the way they are because there is almost no reason to put them in any offensive stat, ie Atk, SA, SP. The Dances already significantly raise both needed stats. Plus, more bulk is needed to Kingdra for setup.
Water and dragon can hit all types effectively, by the way.
