[SET COMMENTS]
Heatran is a great addition to Fire teams, serving as a stallbreaker with its access to Magma Storm and Taunt, and with Air Balloon, it answers Mega Diancie, Excadrill, and the Landorus formes while also providing excellent utility in Stealth Rock and Flame Body. Magma Storm is a powerful trapping tool against walls like Toxapex, Hippowdon, and Clodsire. Earth Power targets Fire- and Poison-types like opposing Heatran and Toxapex, which are immune to or resist Magma Storm. Flash Cannon allows Heatran to OHKO Fairy-types like Mega Diancie and Enamorus, which threaten Fire teams. On the other hand, Hidden Power Ice threatens Ground-types like Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Garchomp. With Taunt, Heatran can stop recovery for foes like Toxapex and Clodsire while also denying entry hazards from these foes as well as others like Gliscor. Alternatively, Stealth Rock allows it to support itself and its teammates like Ceruledge and Volcarona by wearing down the opposing team. Air Balloon provides Heatran with a Ground immunity, allowing it to deal with the aforementioned threats safely as long as its Air Balloon is intact. Torkoal and Ninetales serve as sun setters, boosting the power of Heatran's Magma Storm and softening Water-type moves. Torkoal also provides entry hazard removal with Rapid Spin and acts as an alternate Stealth Rock setter. Dragon Dance Mega Charizard X handles Dragon-types like Kyurem and Hydreigon. In return, Heatran can sponge attacks from Choice Scarf Latias. Mega Charizard Y is another sun setter that also provides a Ground immunity in case Heatran's Air Balloon has already been popped and offensively threatens Sand Rush Excadrill and Mega Swampert, which pose an immense threat to Fire teams, by resetting the weather and threatening them back with Fire Blast and Solar Beam, respectively. Z-Celebrate Victini deals with Fighting-types like Great Tusk and Iron Hands. Teammates like Volcarona, Iron Moth, and Blacephalon appreciate Heatran's ability to trap and eliminate foes like Toxapex and Clodsire. Volcarona can threaten Dark-types like Ting-Lu and Hydreigon that pose problems for Heatran. Choice Scarf Iron Moth and Blacephalon serve as revenge killers; Iron Moth deals with Kommo-o, while Blacephalon threatens Mega Gallade and can eliminate the Landorus formes for Heatran if running Hidden Power Ice, allowing Heatran to run a different move. Focus Sash Ceruledge can use its Fighting immunity to switch into Fighting-types like Iron Valiant, and Sneasler, threatening them back with its STAB moves. It also serves as a wallbreaker, removing special walls like Blissey and Swampert and Rock-types like Mega Tyranitar and Iron Boulder. In return, Heatran can deny entry hazards with Taunt to keep Ceruledge's Focus Sash intact, allowing it to reliably take on the aforementioned foes. Volcanion boasts a Water immunity, which allows it switch in against Water-type attacks from Choice Specs Greninja, Azumarill, and Choice Band Barraskewda; it can also eliminate bulky Ground-types like Hippowdon and Ting-Lu with Steam Eruption, which can potentially burn other foes.

Heatran is a great addition to Fire teams, serving as a stallbreaker with its access to Magma Storm and Taunt while also providing excellent utility in Stealth Rock, and possessing a great ability in Flame Body to punish physical attackers (I think the balloon is the main selling point after the stallbreaky part. Being able to blank on M.Dia and force out Lando-I and kill off Chomp hopefully and not get CB Exca Eq'ed while being able to also OHKO it is really nice). Magma Storm is a powerful trapping tool against walls like Toxapex, Hippowdon, and Clodsire. Earth Power targets opposing Fire- and Poison-types like opposing Heatran and Toxapex, which are immune to or resist Magma Storm. Flash Cannon allows Heatran to OHKO Fairy-types like Mega Diancie and Enamorus, which threaten Fire teams. On the other hand, Hidden Power Ice threatens Ground-types like the Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Garchomp. Air Balloon provides Heatran with a Ground immunity, allowing it to deal with the aforementioned threats safely as long as its Air Balloon is intact. With Taunt, Heatran can stop recovery for foes like Toxapex, Clodsire, and Blissey (blissey wins 1v1 though, maybe someone else?) while also denying entry hazards from the same as well as others like Gliscor. Alternatively, Stealth Rock allows it to support itself and its teammates like Ceruledge and Volcarona by wearing down foes. Torkoal serves as a sun setter, boosting the power of Heatran's Magma Storm, as well as softening Water-type moves. Torkoal can also provide entry hazard removal with Rapid Spin and act as an alternate Stealth Rock setter.(can you lump in Ninetales here too?) Mega Charizard Y is another sun setter that also provides a Ground immunity in case Heatran's Air Balloon has already been popped and offensively threatens Sand Rush Excadrill and Mega Swampert, which pose an immense threat to Fire teams by resetting the weather and threatening them back with Fire Blast or Solar Beam respectively.

Volcarona can threaten Dark-types like Ting-Lu and Hydreigon, which pose problems for Heatran, while Choice Scarf Blacephalon threatens Mega Gallade; it can also eliminate the Landorus formes for Heatran if running Hidden Power Ice, allowing it to run a different move.(mention Z-Celebrate Victini probably, then lump Moth and Blace together [they are scarfers]) Ceruledge with Focus Sash can use its fighting immunity to switch-in against Fighting-types like Iron Valiant, and Sneasler, threatening them back with its STAB moves. It also serves as a wallbreaker removing special walls like Blissey, Alolan Muk, and Gastrodon, and Rock-type like Mega Tyranitar and Iron Boulder with Close Combat and Shadow Sneak (kinda off since you're likely battling under terrain, just mention Taunt preserve sashie->allows Cerul to safely take care of it later. Also too many examples, you can just put 2-3 in all of this sentence) respectively. Volcanion boasts a Water immunity, which allows it switch-in against Water attacks from Choice Specs Greninja, Azumarill, and Choice Band Barraskewda; it can also eliminate bulky Ground-types like Hippowdon and Ting-Lu with its powerful Water STAB that can potentially burn other foes.
