ORAS OU Where do I fit fire onto this team?

[Knocks]

I lack Fire. And it's very noticeable, yet I'm not sure where I can put Fire in. Other improvements would be really useful too. Thanks to some useful suggestions, Starmie now wields HP Fire for the team. Any other suggestions would still be appreciated, though. :) It's based around my favourite Pokemon: Dragonite.

Mango (Dragonite) (M) @ Lum Berry
Ability: Multiscale
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Earthquake
- ExtremeSpeed

The star of the team - Mango the Dragonite. My absolute favourite Pokemon I just had to base a team around. If only he had a Mega. Anyway, his main function here is Physical Sweeper, setting up a Ddance and ruining most opposition with EQ and Outrage (once those pesky fairies have been eliminated). Espeed is awesome for revenge kills, and the Lum Berry gives Mango a one-time get out of burn/confusion free card so he can continue sweeping. Of course, we don't want any stealth rocks or spikes breaking that beautiful Multiscale ability, so we have a spinner in the form of Starmie.

Starmie @ Choice Scarf Life Orb
Ability: Natural Cure Analytic
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 Spe
Timid Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Psyshock
- Scald Hydro Pump
- Confuse Ray Hidden Power Fire

Starmie functions primarily as a spinner to help keep Dragonite healthy, but also as a sort of switch in to Ice type attacks should you need it. Psyshock and Hydro Pump are obligatory stab moves hitting really hard well in combination with Life Orb + Analytic. HP Fire is needed as I have no other fire coverage on my team and can be used to take out big threats like Ferrothorn (thanks Lunistrius for improving my Starmie set!)

Checkmate (Bisharp) (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Iron Head
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
- Low Kick

Fairies are a huge threat to Dragonite, so in comes Bisharp with Iron Head. That's really his main purpose, but he comes with some other benefits too. Knock Off is almost essential to most teams now and Bisharp hits really hard with it. Sucker Punch is there for priority which can really help him clean up late-game especially if he has a Defiant boost. Low Kick is there as opposed to Swords Dance because I have no fighting coverage elsewhere.

Mr. Floss (Raikou) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 Spe 252 SpA / 32 SpD / 224 Spe
Timid Nature
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
- Hidden Power [Ice]

I like having a hard hitting assault vester on my teams, and Raikou fills this slot nicely. His speed and special attack are nothing to be messed with and his ability to Volt Switch gives my team some much needed momentum. Thunderbolt is there for when something slightly more damaging is needed. Shadow Ball for coverage and HP Ice for removing some more serious threats (Lando-T, Gliscor, Garchomp).

Primal (Venusaur) (M) @ Venusaurite
Ability: Overgrow
EVs: 252 HP / 236 Def / 20 Spe 240 Def / 16 SPe
Bold Nature
- Leech Seed
- Synthesis
- Sludge Bomb
- Giga Drain

It was at this point I realized I needed a mega. Venusaur is one I haven't used before and he's a great tank that can dish out some mean damage too. Sludge Bomb gives him a way to deal with fairies if needed, which helps support Dragonite. Leech Seed and Synthesis give him much more longevity and Leech Seed in particular can force a lot of switches. He takes most of the physical hits on the team and doesn't need cleric support to stay alive.

Pretty Boy (Sylveon) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Pixilate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Hyper Voice
- Heal Bell
- Protect
- Wish

Pretty Boy (Clefable) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Wish
- Stealth Rock
- Heal Bell

The new cleric of the team. Clefable is here to replace Sylveon as he gets the benefit of Stealth Rocks (something my team really needed, again, thanks Lunistrius), while still maintaining the healing capabilities that really help keep my team on their feet. Not to mention, it counters the dragons that can threaten Dragonite. Unaware is nice for general reasons. Moonblast = obligatory stab. Heal Bell is essential for removing any crippling status conditions that could hinder Dragonite and any other team members. Wish is obvious.

Thanks to some great suggestions my team is looking a lot stronger but I definitely wouldn't mind any more improvements if anyone spots anything.

Hiya! This team is pretty cool, and I would suggest reading the RMT Rules before posting your team (You need at least 3 lines of description for each Pokemon, detailing their moveset, why you chose them, and their role on the team.) If you need to, you can always save your post as a draft (the floppy disk button between the back arrow button and quotation marks button) in the future.
Onto the rate!

• Since you noted that you need Fire on your team, I would possibly try using HP Fire over Confuse Ray on Starmie. HP Fire is a great lure mechanic on Starmie, allowing it to invite Pokemon like Ferrothorn and being able to at least 2HKO it with HP Fire. Keep in mind that this would entail that you have an IV spread of 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 Spe. Confuse Ray is expendable in this case, because it's not very helpful on an all-attacking set like the one you seem to have. Going off of this, I would recommend the following changes:
  Scald -> Hydro Pump: Hydro Pump, while coming with less-than-stellar accuracy, is the prime STAB for Starmie to use on an all-attacking set. Scald is more fitting on bulkier variants of Starmie.
  Choice Scarf -> Life Orb: Choice Scarf Rapid Spin is not a very good idea, and will allow your opponent to predict your switch. In addition, Life Orb helps to maximize damage output.
  Natural Cure -> Analytic: Analytic is imperative to a set with HP Fire. Since you will likely be forcing switches with Starmie anyway, many players will switch Ferrothorn or another grass-type to deal with Starmie and therefore will be hit by a 30% boosted HP Fire.
• Not only Starmie's, but an offensively-oriented team like this, success really relies on the use of entry hazards. Since your team doesn't have any entry hazards, I would suggest replacing Sylveon with Clefable. While Sylveon will provide your team with cleric support, Clefable can do the same thing with the added bonus of an entry hazard in the form of Stealth Rock. Try a set like this:
  
  set

  Clefable @ Leftovers
  Ability: Unaware
  EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
  Bold Nature
  - Moonblast
  - Wish
  - Stealth Rock
  - Heal Bell
  The first thing that may jump out at you on this set is the lack of Protect in conjunction with Wish. While this may not seem like a good idea, Clefable will likely be Wishpassing to its teammates. Stealth Rock is an imperative part of this set as well, so Protect was scrapped for this reason. The rest of the set is straightforward, with Leftovers for passive recovery and the EVs and nature invested to counter most set-up sweepers. Unaware is on this set as well for the previous reason, since your team doesn't have much of a way to deal with these prominent Pokemon. You can use Magic Guard to allow for more switch-ins and status immunity, but you have Heal Bell and a Rapid Spinner on the team to deal with just that. Moonblast is for an obligatory attacking move, and it hits pretty hard as a STAB without investment. Wish and Heal Bell to function as a cleric, and Stealth Rock for hazards. This set works well with Dragonite, who can deal with Steel-types while Clefable can hit Dragon-types. In addition, its Heal Bell will help Mega Venusaur and Bisharp, which don't appreciate burns.
• For Raikou, I would use a spread of 252 SpA / 32 SpD / 224 Spe over the one you have to maximize its damage potential with Assault Vest while buffing its Special Defense and being able to outrun certain Pokemon like Thundurus.
• You can use a 252 HP / 240 Def / 16 Spe spread on Venusaur over the one you have since you don't have HP Fire, and the extra 4 EV's wouldn't outspeed anything important otherwise.
• As a note, make sure all of your specially-oriented Pokemon have 0 IVs in Attack. This helps reduce confusion damage and damage from moves like Foul Play. The Pokemon affected include: Starmie, Raikou, Venusaur, and Sylveon/Clefable.

Keep in mind that these are all suggestions, so you don't have to use them all. I hope I helped, though!
Good luck on your team! =)

Read the RMT rules you need at least 3 sentences of description on each pokemon. If you want Fire Try Specs Eon

Set:

Sylveon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Pixilate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 Spe
Modest Nature
- Hyper Voice
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Psyshock
- Shadow Ball

Hyper Voice is STAB, HP fire like you wanted, psyshock and shadow ball for coverage. Hope I helped

I have taken all of your considerations into account and updated my post with descriptions for each Pokemon. The team is functioning a lot better now, thanks a lot. :)
