Suigetsu has performed an overlooked feat, that no other ninja except Nagato (through application) has been shown to do. Rain Sensing; Suigetsu is capable of acquiring information through rain/water passively.

Location

Firstly. Suigetsu, and Jūgo were both imprisoned in Tetsu no Kuni (Land of Iron), while the Fourth Shinobi World War took place in the locations: Sangaku no Hakaba (Mountain's Graveyard) the Akatsuki's hideout, Shimo no Kuni (Land of Frost), Yu no Kuni (Land of Hot Water), and of course Kaminari no Kuni (Land of Lightning). The entire war, was fought in the lands close to Kumogakure's own; the Land of Lightning.​

Suigetsu was present in the Land of Iron at the time of his break out. The Land of Iron is among Sanrō (Three Wolves), three very large mountains. Remnants of the world war took place in Mountain's Graveyard; the connection between the two is prominent.

Later, it was seen Suigetsu, and co. had made their way to Orochimaru's hideout, located in Otogakure (Hidden Sound Village). The range between the Land of Iron, and the Hidden Sound Village and any of the locations the war took place is vast as can be seen on the map.​

Sensory​
Suigetsu was blatantly seen performing a sensing ability, be it due to his Hōzuki bloodline (most likely), or through his own self-proficiency; either way, Suigetsu is a sensory type, and one of the more powerful ones we've seen by manga portrayal.

Chapters later, Suigetsu, and Jūgo were seen directly outside of Orochimaru's hideout within Otogakure; Jūgo through his ability to communicate telepathically with animals had attained information about war, right after Jūgo attempted to voice what the birds had relayed to him. However, Jūgo was cut off by Suigetsu, who'd finished his sentence accurately. How was this possible if they had no prior knowledge to anything currently happening? (Reinforced by Jūgo needing to ask the wildlife for ongoing circumstances).​

It's due to Suigetsu's innate ability to sense/acquire information through water, similar to how Nagato had done so. Except, Suigetsu's is passively active due to his genetic makeup/ancestral origins. This is further strongly reinforced by the next page which he states: "Before we get mixed up in this conflict." This additionally proved Suigetsu perceived a war was ongoing.

Stated previously, this sensing ability is similar to Nagato's very own; acquiring chakra signatures/information of those touched by the rain, relaying it back to the user of the technique. Suigetsu instead is simply relayed the information skipping the former's application method.​

This proves that Suigetsu is capable of sensing anyone in contact with water, as long as he himself is as well; though it must be the same form of water (i.e. if rain he must be in contact with rain - if a body of water, then he must be in contact with a body of water etc).​

TL;DR​
Suigetsu is not only capable of sensing/acquiring information through water, he's able to do so at expansive ranges, as he was capable of sensing warring conflict from a nation/nations away from his location (Orochimaru's hideout within the Sound Village). It's plausible that all Hōzuki Clan members are capable of this due to their clans Hiden (Secret Technique); allowing them to liquidate their entire body composition.

Suigetsu is a heavily underrated/overlooked character who possesses extraordinary feats when you carefully analyze his manga debuts. He's undoubtedly one of the better/more interesting characters this manga presented.

not only that but hes a badass, he tanked a tailed beast bomb, has sharpened teeth, and was actually loyal to sasuke for no real apparent reason.
his abilities and aesthetic alone are what i liked but then he also has a personality unlike some characters

I agree completely, especially on the personality bit. He hails from a unique clan, that's produced prodigious shinobi such as: Mangetsu, and Gengetsu; a legendary seven swordmen, and a Mizukage. Then you have their clan techniques which are extremely powerful techniques in the right hands.

Just another clan, and character Kishimoto decided to not explore sadly.

Thankfully Kishimoto left many subtle hints regarding the clan's abilities through Suigetsu, and Gengetsu.

Reading is crucial. No where in this thread did I mention Suigetsu creating rain. Don't comment on my threads unless you drop the stupid act.

You such reread, how for the water have suigetsu a chakra in it? You need to have some contact with the body of water in order to use it as a sensory medium. Kindly remove the stick from you behind
