Ability: Libero
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe

- Extreme Speed
- Earthquake
- Ice Spinner
- Fire Punch / Thunder Punch
New Stats: 91 / 163 / 113 / 116 / 118 / 109

Frantic Fusions is an Other Metagame where you can "fuse" two Pokemon by nicknaming one after the other, with the base Pokemon getting a quarter of the donor's base stats (barring HP) and access to its abilities added onto its own. With a Cinderace fusion and a Choice Band, Dragonite can take full advantage of even post-nerf Libero to shred through weakened teams with its powerful Extreme Speed. Earthquake gives Dragonite a powerful tool against Steel-types like Hisuian Goodra, Iron Treads, and non-Levitate Gholdengo as well as Raging Bolt. Ice Spinner 2HKOes Great Tusk and hits Zapdos, Landorus-T, and opposing Dragonite. Finally, Fire Punch hits Fluffy Corviknight and Skarmory as well as Levitate Gholdengo, while Thunder Punch is an alternative that hits foes like Alomomola and Primarina. Dragonite fits on most offensive and balance teams that appreciate its immense wallbreaking and cleaning potential.

You need an oxford comma after Landorus-T in the Ice Spinner sentence. This is fine to proceed once that is added; I have no other changes.
Ice Spinner 2HKOes Great Tusk and hits Zapdos, Landorus-T, (AC) and opposing Dragonite.
