If you played gen 4 you already know about salamence in ou and ubers. This is the gen 5 moxie salamence with dragon dance. The moves are standard on salamence. dragon dance is your boosting move. Dragon claw stings after a dragon dance. Earthquake and Fire blast are the last moves to hit steel types. Salamence is chosen because it is most working on this team

swords dance
return
quick attack
earthquake
Look familiar? Yes it is mega pinsir's swords dance set but diggersby is not as good because of normal<flying. But this set isn't a sweeper. It is a wallbreaker and can sweep weakened teams. The moves are swords dance to boost attack. Return and earthquake have good coverage together. quick attack for priority. Diggersby is chosen to beat physical walls and put pressure with boosted hits.

stealth rock
roar
iron head
thunder wave
My physical wall. Aggron is prefered here to stop weavile a major thorn for this team. Aggronite to mega evolve. Stealth rock benifits salamence helping it get moxie boosts.
thunder wave paralizes threats. Iron head to paraflinch. roar is there to shuffle and roar out magnezone. Aggron is chosen to fight off dragons weaviles and bisharps. all problematic to this team.

My special wall. Clefable is used as it has 2 things it is different than chansey. 1 a fairy typing and offensive presence. also wish and aromatherapy being legal on the same set. Aromatherapy to heal statuses. Wish heals aggron who lacks recovery. Moonblast to combat faster dragons. thunder wave to spread paralsis. Specially defencive clefable is here. to fight greninja. another threat in the ou metgame

My supporter and defogger. Crobat is the fastest defogger in the ou metagame. Defog is there as it supports salamence Brave bird for stab. U turn is there to get out of tight situations. and taunt stops supporters in there tracks and set up sweepers which most of which crobat outspeeds. I chose crobat because it is the fastest defogger in ou
