[SET COMMENTS]
Dragonite is a great setup sweeper boasting nearly unresisted coverage, a useful Flying typing, and a convenient ability in Multiscale, allowing for an easier time setting up. Outrage is preferred due to the lack of Fairy-types and its utter power, allowing Dragonite to sweep opposing Dragon teams with the help of Baxcalibur and Dragapult late-game. Earthquake allows Dragonite to nail Poison- and Steel-type switch-ins such as Toxapex, Clodsire, and Gholdengo. Alternatively, Fire Punch threatens would-be checks like Corviknight and Air Balloon Gholdengo. Extreme Speed encourages Dragonite to use an Adamant nature (this doesn't really make sense - you could reword this to say that espeed pairs better ith an adamant nature and explain why, bc what you have now is pretty vague) and picks off weakened threats such as Greninja and Iron Valiant attempting to revenge kill it, while Encore may be used to lock physical walls like Dondozo, Quagsire, and Ting-Lu into a move, either letting Dragonite deal extra chip damage or effortlessly set up in front of them. A Jolly nature allows Dragonite to outpace Chien-Pao and Dragapult after a Dragon Dance so that Dragonite can OHKO them with Outrage, at the cost of power.

Dragonite appreciates Baxcalibur's immunity to Will-O-Wisp from threats such as Sableye and Skeledirge, neutrality to Ice-type moves, and ability to threaten Ting-Lu. In return, Dragonite checks troublesome Fighting-types like Quaquaval and Slither Wing. Cyclizar's Shed Tail in conjunction with Multiscale grants Dragonite many chances to set up and prevents it from being affected by status effects inflicted by Toxapex, Amoonguss, and Skeledirge. Garchomp sets up entry hazards in the form of Stealth Rock and Spikes, chipping down Dragonite's switch-ins such as Forretress, Kingambit, and Quagsire. Dragapult breaks past walls such as Dondozo and Corviknight and prevents Rapid Spin users like Great Tusk and Iron Treads from clearing Garchomp's entry hazards. Dragalge's secondary Poison typing and commendable bulk allow it to check Fairy-types like Iron Valiant and Flutter Mane, and it supports Dragonite's sweeping with Toxic Spikes, notably wearing down Ting-Lu, Slowbro, and Quagsire. Choice Scarf Roaring Moon is a great revenge killer and method of speed control, (AC) as it outpaces and deals with Choice Scarf Baxcalibur, Chien-Pao, and Choice Specs Greninja. Walking Wake is another plausible Choice Scarf user due to its ability to threaten Chien-Pao and singlehandedly sweep Fire teams.

Dragonite is a great setup sweeper boasting well rounded stats, a wide range (its not wide, it just so happened that Eq outrage hits enough) of coverage moves, and a convenient ability in Multiscale, allowing for an easier time setting up. Outrage is Dragonite's most powerful move, notably wearing down (wearing down isnt the best term, you can mention its preferred for now due to lack of fairies tho) physical walls like Amoonguss, Gastrodon, and Slowbro (iirc you dont OHKO, and Amoon spores you, Slowbro can Twave/Ice beam so these might not be the best mentions). Earthquake allows Dragonite to nail Poison- and Steel-type switch ins such as Toxapex, Clodsire, and Gholdengo. Alternatively, Fire Punch threatens would-be checks like Corviknight and Air Balloon Gholdengo. Extreme Speed encourages Dragonite to use an Adamant nature and picks off weakened threats such as Greninja and Iron Valiant attempting to revenge kill it, while Encore may be used to incapacitate (incapacitate isnt quite right, you can "annoy" or lock them into odd moves, if you want) physical walls like Dondozo, Quagsire, and Ting-Lu, either letting Dragonite deal extra chip damage or effortlessly set up in front of them. (note that a jolly nature lets it outspeed pao and Dragapult, letting you OHKO it with Fire Punch [if multiscale isnt broken yet]/Outrage)
*another thing possibly to note is that its a ground immune, which is great for dragons

Dragonite appreciates Baxcalibur's immunity to Will-O-Wisp from threats such as Sableye and Skeledirge and it's ability to threaten Ting-Lu. In return, Dragonite checks troublesome Fighting-types like Breloom, Quaquaval, and Slither Wing. Cyclizar's Shed Tail in conjunction with Multiscale grants Dragonite many chances to set up and prevents it from being affected by status effects inflicted by Toxapex, Amoonguss, and Skeledirge. Dragapult breaks past walls such as Dondozo and Corviknight and prevents Rapid Spin users like Great Tusk, Iron Treads, and Brambleghast from clearing Garchomp's entry hazards, which enhance Dragonite's sweeping potential. As previously mentioned, Garchomp sets up entry hazards in the form of Stealth Rock and Spikes, chipping down Dragonite switch ins such as Forretress, Kingambit, and Quagsire. Dragalge's secondary Poison-typing and commendable bulk allow it to check Fairy-types like Iron Valiant and Flutter Mane. (also has Tspikes to wear down teams more)
*Add Scarf Roaring Moon/Walking Wake. RM gets to play here esp since Dragonite serves as the "levitate" mon, though Hydrei still isnt too bad. Walking Wake deals with Cheem Pao

notes for amcheck

Dead by Daylight
- x-type is hyphenated, but x typing is not, so Flying typing is correct.
- switch-ins is also hyphenated
- I removed the "its" in the Baxcalibur line so all clauses are parallel; "bacalibur's immunity to.." "baxcalibur's neutrality to.." baxcalibur's ability to" - having "its" there breaks that parallelism because it would read as "baxcalibur's its ability to"
- Commas should be used before as/since if it means because

[SET COMMENTS]
Dragonite is a great setup sweeper boasting nearly unresisted coverage, a useful Flying-typing Flying typing, and a convenient ability in Multiscale, allowing for an easier time setting up. Outrage is preferred due to the lack of Fairy-types and its utter power, allowing Dragonite to sweep against opposing Dragon teams with the help of Baxcalibur and Dragapult late-game. Earthquake allows Dragonite to nail Poison- and Steel-type switch ins switch-ins such as Toxapex, Clodsire, and Gholdengo. Alternatively, Fire Punch threatens would-be checks like Corviknight and Air Balloon Gholdengo. Extreme Speed encourages Dragonite to use an Adamant nature (this doesn't really make sense - you could reword this to say that espeed pairs better ith an adamant nature and explain why, bc what you have now is pretty vague) and picks off weakened threats such as Greninja and Iron Valiant attempting to revenge kill it, while Encore may be used to lock physical walls like Dondozo, Quagsire, and Ting-Lu into a move, either letting Dragonite deal extra chip damage or effortlessly set up in front of them. A Jolly nature allows Dragonite to outpace Chien-Pao and Dragapult after a Dragon Dance so that Dragonite can OHKO them with Outrage, at the cost of power. (does chien-pao not run shard?)

Dragonite appreciates Baxcalibur's immunity to Will-O-Wisp from threats such as Sableye and Skeledirge, neutrality to Ice-type moves, and its ability to threaten Ting-Lu. In return, Dragonite checks troublesome Fighting-types like Quaquaval and Slither Wing. Cyclizar's Shed Tail in conjunction with Multiscale grants Dragonite many chances to set up and prevents it from being affected by status effects inflicted by Toxapex, Amoonguss, and Skeledirge. Garchomp sets up entry hazards in the form of Stealth Rock and Spikes, chipping down Dragonite's switch ins switch-ins such as Forretress, Kingambit, and Quagsire. Dragapult breaks past walls such as Dondozo and Corviknight and prevents Rapid Spin users like Great Tusk and Iron Treads from clearing Garchomp's entry hazards. Dragalge's secondary Poison-typing Poison typing and commendable bulk allow it to check Fairy-types like Iron Valiant and Flutter Mane, and it supports Dragonite's sweeping with Toxic Spikes, notably wearing down Ting-Lu, Slowbro, and Quagsire. Choice Scarf Roaring Moon is a great revenge killer and method of speed control, (AC) as it outpaces and deals with Choice Scarf Baxcalibur, Chien-Pao, and Choice Specs Greninja. Walking Wake is another plausible Choice Scarf user due to its ability to threaten Chien-Pao and singlehandedly sweep Fire teams.

- x-type is hyphenated, but x typing is not, so Flying typing is correct.
- switch-ins is also hyphenated
- I removed the "its" in the Baxcalibur line so all clauses are parallel; "bacalibur's immunity to.." "baxcalibur's neutrality to.." baxcalibur's ability to" - having "its" there breaks that parallelism because it would read as "baxcalibur's its ability to"
- Commas should be used before as/since if it means because
