Draco Meteor
Flamethrower

I know having two Dragon moves arent so good but Draco Meteor is for exetremly good coverage. Dragon Pulse is for late match sweeping. Flamethrower for those who are weak to it and same with Hydro Pump.

Well, Draco Meteor is bad without White Herb, then you must think about Ice types themselves. HP Flying for Fighting Types etc. and good old STAB. DragonBreath for Para-hax a lot.

Electivire @ Expert Belt

C-Chop and EQ do the same job, really. So T-Wave for mor Haxiness.

Salamence @ Choice Specs/Wise Glasses/
Modest/Timid Nature
EVS: 252 SP.atk,252 Speed, 4HP
Moves:
Draco Meteor
Flamethrower
Dragon Pulse
Hydro Pump

Actually, having 2 dragon moves is fine. That way you can use it and not drop your special attack by two levels. And Salamence doesn't exactly have a diverse special movepool.

A few suggestions though.

A Timid nature will greatly help with speed, since Salamence already packs a punch.

In the Battle Tower/Frontier, you need to hit fast and hit hard, SpecsMence is extremely useful for this. If switching moves is that important to you, Wise Glasses is a fine subsitute.

Normally I'd use Fire Blast over Flamethrower, but you need all the accuracy you can get in the BF.

If you want to be able to hit bulky waters like Suicune, or special walls like Blissey, Toxic can go in the place of Hydro Pump. It'll be a slow death, but it's much more reliable than Flamethrower and Hydro Pump.

Flamethrower needs to stay on the set due to Scizor.

Electivire @ Expert Belt
Jolly/Adamant Nature
EVS: 4HP, 252 Attack, 252 Speed
Moves:
Thunder Punch
Ice Punch
EQuake
Cross Chop/Fire Punch

Cross Chop's accuracy in the BF is pretty laughable. Use Fire Punch instead.

99.9% of the time Vire won't get the electric boost, especially since you don't have an electric weak Pokemon to attract thunderbolts. Jolly for speed.

Politoad @ Leftovers
Calm Natured
Water Absorb
EVS: 252HP,4SPATK,252SPDefense
Moves:
Ice Beam
Toxic
Surf
Refresh

While it's an okay set, I guess, if you're looking for a special wall, Blissey does it better and can absorb status by switching out, self heal with Aroma therapy, can Toxic/Thunder Wave/Sing, Calm Mind up, etc...
