Dragonite @ Life Orb
[Whatever you prefer, split it into Atk / SpA / 252 Spe]
Naive Nature
Multi-Scale
-Agility
-Outrage
-Gale (Or Hurricane, whatever it's called)
-Fire Blast
Many teams are unprepared for it, and MultiScale always lets it get up an Agility (if it's at full health).

That's actually not too bad of an idea. Two questions though. Why Max Speed on something with Agility (you'd be out-speeding things like Scarf Shaymin-S with less Speed, I'm sure), and why Fire Blast? I'd assume that Fire Blast is to hit Nattorei, but in the Rain, I don't think it'd be doing that much damage.

My largest problem with LightningRod Zapdos is that it has absolutely no way to damage Nattorei. Heat Wave isn't compatible with LightningRod, and Hidden Power [Ice] would be doing piss-poor damage. Not to mention that Zapdos has extremely limited coverage with LightningRod. At best, you can manage pseudo-BoltBeam with Thunder and Hidden Power [Ice], but that's really about it as far as attacking goes.
