- Basic Dragon Dance sweeping set.
- DD up and tear apart teams that have been worn out
- Outrage is its most powerful STAB
- Dragon Claw should be used if you're using Sheer Force
- Fire Fang takes down Steel-types that wall Bagon such as Ferroseed and Magnamite
- Rock Slide provides coverage against Flying- and Fire-types.
- Jolly to make Bagon as fast as possible.
- EVs maximize speed and attack
- Outrage+DragonDance+Sheer Force is illegal.
- Life Orb gives a nice power boost
- Teammates: Stealth Rock / Spikes support from Dwebble, Ferroseed etc
- SubPass Mienfoo can help Bagon while it attempts to setup Dragon Dances and can block status
- 0 ivs in hp so that bagon takes only 1 damage from life orb
- Bronzor can take hits, provide paralysis support, and set up stealth rock
- Since Ice- and Dragon-type pokemon threaten Bagon, Bronzor is helpful.
- Cleric support from Chinchou and Missy can be useful if bagon gets burned / paralysed
- Choice Scarf can be used because Bagon's attack isn't too bad.
- Brick Break
- Zen Headbutt
- Eviolite
- Hone Claws + Dragon Rush
- Snover can outspeed Bagon and OHKO it with Blizzard.
- Faster Dragon-types such as Axew can finish off Axew with a STAB Dragon-type move.
- Paralysis hurts Bagon a lot as it stops it from sweeping
- Burn too
- Priority can be a huge problem as Bagon's defenses are bad
- Scarf Mienfoo can switch in on a Dragon Dance, outspeed Bagon at +1 and OHKO it with Hi Jump Kick.
- Drillbur can easily outspeed bagon if sand is up and ko it with eq
- Hippopotas can take a hit even at +1 and can Slack Off damage. Life Orb + Sand will take its toll. If Bagon tries to set up, Hippopotas can do a good amount of damage to it with EQ
