Dragonite is a very powerful setup sweeper due to its amazing ability, natural bulk, and high Attack stat. It can often turn common threats like Ogerpon-W, Volcarona, Urshifu-R, and Rillaboom into setup fodder. Extreme Speed allows Dragonite to revenge kill sweepers like Nasty Plot Tornadus-T and Iron Valiant. Earthquake hits Rock-types like Garganacl and Glimmora, as well as Steel-types like Heatran and Archaludon. Roost enables Dragonite to active its ability multiple times, which allows it to set up more easily and serve as a long-term check to Ogerpon-W and Volcarona. Ice Spinner is an alternative, mainly for Flying-types like Zapdos and Landorus-T. Outrage with a +1 or +2 Attack boost is almost unstoppable, especially with Dragonium Z, which can OHKO Defensive Zapdos and has a chance to OHKO Alomomola with minor chip at +1. Tera Normal gives Extreme Speed a STAB boost to revenge kill the likes of Iron Valiant and offensive Volcarona, as well as Ogerpon-W and Mega Lopunny with entry hazards on the field. It also removes Dragonite's weakness to common super effective coverage moves like Moonblast, Ice Beam, and Stone Edge. Dragonite appreciates teammates like Mega Diancie and Iron Boulder to weaken the opponent's Flying-types and check fragile revenge killers like Greninja. Dragonite is relatively susceptible to status and Stealth Rock. Even with Heavy-Duty Boots, Dragonite can still benefit a lot if it is paired with teammates like Zapdos and Great Tusk, since they can make Dragonite less concerned about Knock Off. Gliscor and Clefable are both good partners as well because they can absorb Knock Off and status moves.

Dragonite is a very powerful setup sweeper due to its amazing Ability, nature bulk, and a high Attack stat. It can often turn common threats like Ogerpon-W, Landorus-T, taking tox ruins this mon, especially vs priority; something like volcarona is a better mention Urshifu-R, and Rillaboom into its setup fodder. The +2 priority level of Extreme Speed also allows Dragonite to revenge kill sweepers like Ash-Greninja this mon feels lowkey not relevant enough rn to mention; mention something like np torn instead and Iron Valiant. Earthquake is the almost a must-have for Dragonite since it can hit hits not slashed, eq being a must-have is easily construed imo Rock Types like Garganacl and Glimmora, as well as Steel Types like Ferrothorn, ferro is shaky bc a lot of ppl are using gyro and even if you dd again leech breaks scale so you realistically cant do much Heatran, and Archaludon. Roost can help Dragonite active its Ability multiple times, which allows it to set up more easily. mention checking mons like ogerpon / volc longterm too Ice Spinner is an alternative mainly for Flying Types like Zapdos and Corviknight. corv racks up helmet + clicks uturn and says bye, think lando is a more notable mention Outrage with a +1 or +2 Attack boost is almost unstoppable especially with Dragonium Z, which can OHKO Defensive Zapdos at +1 and has a chance to OHKO Alomomola with minor chip at +1. Tera Normal gives Extreme Speed STAB boost to revenge kill achieve many OHKOs versus the like of Greninja and replace w something like valiant offensive Volcarona, as well as Ogerpon-W and Mega Lopunny with hazards on. It can also remove Dragonite's weakness to Fairy and Ice Type moves, which is valuable against targets like Iron Valiant. i think you can definitely reword this into a broader mention of removing weaknesses vs coverage moves, something like "It also removes Dragonite's weakness to common super effective coverage..." and finish yourself Dragonite appreciates teammates like Mega Diancie and Iron Boulder to weaken the opponent's Flying Type and lure fragile revenge killers like Greninja. Mega Diancie can also provide hazard support. technically everything appreciates hazard support, if you dont specify specific rolls its not worth Dragonite is relatively weak to status and Stealth Rock.

Dragonite is relatively weak susceptible (fits better here as ure not talking about moves) to status (moves?) and Stealth Rock. Even with Heavy-Duty Boots, Dragonite can still benefit a lot if it is paired with teammates like Zapdos or and Great Tusk, (AC) since they can make Dragonite less concerned about Knock Off (i think you should mention hdb+knock in the previous sentence cuz the set has hdb and ure writing "its susceptible to stealth rock..."). Gliscor and Clefable are both good partners as well because they can absorb Knock Off and status moves.
