[OVERVIEW]
Sadly, there is no reason to use the unviable Luvdisc over other Water-types such as Ludicolo, Kabutops, and Omastar. While it has a nice ability in Swift Swim backed with a nice Speed stat, it lacks the firepower to make use of it, often making it dead weight. It also sports a pitiful bulk, leaving it vulnerable to common priority moves, such as Mach Punch and Sucker Punch.

[SET COMMENTS]
With this set, Luvdisc tries to fulfill the role of a rain sweeper. However, this is better accomplished by Ludicolo, since it sports a better offensive typing and hits significantly harder than Luvdisc while also being able to set up rain for itself more easily due to its higher bulk. It is also outclassed by other Water-types, especially Omastar, which makes better use of Swift Swim thanks to it being bulkier, stronger, and also faster after a Shell Smash.
