Doesn't this team just lose to standard Mega Slowbro?
EDIT: Rest might lose to Zera, but I think Slack Off should win, especially with crit immunity.
This is why you don't run Dragonium Zera (and also why BD Zard is cool.)

• Vaporeon -> Vaporeon kills without problem with HPump and with Vortex you don't need to know much. So I saw the solution to make it a quicker point for me to win 1v1 with Wild Charge.

• Zeraora -> this mon is a great physical attacker and also on the special side. It is a good stallbreaker. Interesting set with Dragonium Z. Here the idea is to click on EQ and voila. Golem fits the Drake well.

• ZardX -> keeping in mind that this is a game and that this is with Zard X and not Charizard. Anyway it is valid since I have Rock Slide that just eliminates the mega from this team.
