Serious Mistake in the DDance set.
The "Set Details" are relevant to an Adamant Nature. With Jolly Nature you can use 192EVs to outspeed +Speed Base 130s after a Dance
I understand the Dex entry is outdated but I didnt want to see Torrent replaced with Sheer Force and there still be incorrect information.
EDIT: Clearly I don't know how to use Spoilers correctly.

Moves
Dragon Dance allows Feraligatr to boost its Attack and Speed by one stage, allowing it to sweep. Waterfall is Feraligatr's strongest STAB move, and is very threatening to Pokemon which don't resist it, especially after a boost from Dragon Dance. Ice Punch is a good coverage move that OHKOes both Honchkrow and Hydreigon after a Dragon Dance boost. Earthquake is a very powerful move that can KO threatening Electric-types such as Raikou, and can also take out Jirachi. Lastly, Aerial Ace has a relevant niche, as it 2HKOes Chesnaught and has a good chance to OHKO Toxicroak after a Dragon Dance.
Set Details
252 Attack EVs max out Feraligatr's Attack stat, allowing it to hit as hard as possible. 228 Speed EVs with a Jolly nature allow Feraligatr to outspeed neutral nature base 120s after a Dragon Dance. 28 HP EVs are put into Feraligatr's HP to give it a little bit of extra bulk. Life Orb gives a significant boost to Feraligatr's damage output, making it the preferred item for this set. Feraligatr can also run a bulky variation of this set with an EV spread of 224 HP / 252 Atk / 34 Spe and a Jolly nature, allowing it to outspeed base 100s after a Dragon Dance while also improving its overall bulk.
Usage Tips
Setting up Dragon Dance safely isn't very difficult for Feraligatr, though it is much more prone to being revenge killed or statused, as it can not outspeed threats who can revenge kill easily as well as status setters. Feraligatr needs threats such as Will-O-Wisp Sableye and Roserade weakened to the point where it can KO them, which is why setting up is not advised until these Pokemon have been removed. However, once all its counters have been removed, Feraligatr only needs to worry about attacking.
Team Options
Feraligatr can make good use of Dual Screen support from the likes of Cresselia or Uxie, as it allows Feraligatr to set up much easier. Feraligatr is very threatened by Pokemon such as Vaporeon and Suicune, making Chesnaught and Tangrowth very helpful partners to deal with them. Lastly, since Feraligatr is threatened by Will-O-Wisp, Rotom-H is a good partner to absorb Will-O-Wisp and neuter Pokemon such as Suicune with Trick.
