This is a team that was made around Dragonite and fellow Pseudo - Garchomp. Both these mons share similar checks like Lando-T, Corviknight, Ferrothon, Clefable etc... One sweeps early game,just for the other to sweep late game.
Now imagine the possibilities if these checks get pressured/eliminated. These pseudos just go ham. So, here comes Magnezone. Also Mag eliminating Steels mean that Chomp can run Stone Edge instead of Fire Fang for Zapdos and stuff, while Dragonite can afford to use it's Defensive DD + Heal Bell set that lets it switch into stray Toxics, while countering Kartana, Urshifu-R, Heatran etc.. freeing up team slots to check these.
Tapu Koko is speed controller and provides Electric Terrain for Magnezone to abuse (Electric Terrain + Specs Rising Voltage 2HKOes Ferrothon and Blissey), while pivoting out of G-Slowking and Ferrothon for Garchomp and Mag to take advantage of.
Scizor checks Weavile, Melmetal, Kyurem, Lele while providing slow pivoting against Volcarona, Zapdos, Toxapex for Dragonite/Garchomp to setup on. It can also setup if needed as late-game cleaner with BP
Finally, Max SpDef Lando-T is here to check Pult more reliably, provides Rocks and Knock/Toxic support, while pivoting out of Steel Birds for Mag to Trap.
