Well that's a long comment about Salamence the new bird. The thing is, if I am going to replace someone with Salamence, it will be Archeops. Honchkrow is actually pretty important with that Sucker Punch, Heat Wave and strong Brave Bird. Insomnia/Moxie helps quite a lot too.

Archeops is ruined by Defeatist, so I could consider testing Salamence over it, whenever Salamence reincarnates to be a bird. Bagon does look like a bird wannabe, as he always wanted to fly.

People only use Scarf Salamence with MOXIE, Intimidate sucks for it. Sadly, Salamence looks like a flying lizard, maybe it is some mutant bird I guess since you did provide some convincing history about Miss Salamander. Thank you, I might test it sometime.

One thing, Extremekiller usually makes Salamence tremble in fear, not the other way round unless Salamence already gotten 2-3 boosts. Good Rate!

Re-testing Tornadus-T, turns out to be pretty good actually. Leftovers Ho-Oh and a different Giratina-O set were also tested at the moment.
