After just doing a month of Raikou, I mostly went with all Rhydon/Golem/Donphan. Dragonite just dies so fast

I'd consider powering up #3 and #4 if you have stardust to spare. They'll be useful against Entei as well

Two dragonites and then rhydons. Rhydon is just too slow but can be a good anchor.
Caveats on using dragonite: leave enough time to dodge. Otherwise, wild charge would destroy it. Also, if there are enough people, don’t dodge with rhydons.

Your team is a bit ropey for +3 damage balls as you need to raid in a smaller group (6-7 is ideal for Raikou) and last 200+ seconds for you to do enough damage, and you don't have enough Rhydons or ground Golems it seems.

But I think this will be the best for you:
1. Dragonite 7
2. Exeggutor 10
3. Rhydon 1
4. Rhydon 2
5. Donphan
6. Whatever you need to finish the fight, maybe even Blissey

Use Donphan for slot 5 to facilitate dodging while for the first 4 you can be a bit more careless (the quick moves of first 4 are quite bad for dodging anyway). Counter is really easy to dodge with and you can last a considerable time with Donphan if the fight is still going on by the 5th pokemon.

Thunder shock you should do very very well, but for Volt Switch you will definitely need more Rhydons for maximum balls.
