Is this viable?
Salamence (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 76 HP / 124 Atk / 252 Spd / 56 SAtk
Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef)
- Fire Blast
- Brick Break
- Toxic
- Dragon Claw
It's McGraw's set. Original link:

I don't see why not use 84 HP evs instead of 76 HP. It gets 352 which gets 22 HP per turn instead of 21 using 350 HP. I also like Rock Slide / Hidden Power Flying against Dragon Claw as Dragon Claws only used for three Pokemon Flygon, Salamence and Dragonite while Rock Slide beats 2/3 Pokemon listed as it also beats those pesky Rest Talk Zapdos with 252 / 252 / 4 spreeds; I would lose those Special Attack evs for more Attack because Fire Blast still 2hkos skarmory and ohkoes Forretress with either 270 or 256 Special Attack. Meh I would also lose those Speed Evs down to 286 / 285 for Jolly Medicam.
Salamence (M) @ Leftovers

EVs: 148 HP / 160 Atk / 200 Spd
Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef)

- Rock Slide / Hidden Power Flying

368 HP, 380 Attack and 286 / 285 Speed is what I would use for the McSalamence set.
