Salamence@Life Orb
Trait: Moxie/Intimidate
EVs: 252Atk/160SpA/96Spe
Adamant Nature
-Tailwind
-Outrage
-Draco Meteor
-Fire Blast

Either ability works fine, Intimidate gives you more staying power, while Moxie makes a Tailwind sweep much deadlier. As for the EVs,Max Attack to power up Outrage, enough speed to outspeed base 108's after Tailwind and the rest thrown into Special Attack.
Thoughts?
I'm going to go ahead and suppose the Nature isn't supposed to be Adamant, but some Special Def reducing Nature.
