Nature: Adamant
Dragon Dance
Dragon Claw

Stone Edge/Rock Slide

Rock/Ground gives you a good offense. Fly isn't the best choice here, as it takes two turns to use. Your other attacks will do more damage than Fly.

Dragonite @ Leftovers
Ability: Inner Focus
4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Nature: Adamant
Dragon Dance
Dragon claw
Fire Punch
Earthquake

Good... but this is pretty much the exact same thing as your Salamence, except with Fire Punch. You might want to consider making this or Salamence a Special/Mixed sweeper, as both right now are filling the exact same role on this team as a physical sweeper.

Tyranitar @ Choice Band
Ability: Sandstream
252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe
Nature: Adamant
Crunch
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Fire Punch

Not bad, but Ice Punch would give you more coverage than Fire Punch. Also, adding Tyranitar on this team is pretty random when only this and Metagross resist Sandstorm. You should probably reconsider Tyranitar on your team, as its Sandstream hurts most of your Pokemon, and you already have a physical sweeper.

Metagross @ Occa Berry
Ability: Clear Body
252 Atk / 124 SpA / 132 Spe
Nature: Naughty
Meteor Mash
Earthquake
Psychic
Grass Knot

If you want the MixGross, you'll want Grass Knot over Thunder Punch.

Blissey @ Leftovers
Ability: Serene Grace
148 HP / 252 Def / 108 SpA
Nature: Bold
Softboiled
Toxic
Ice Beam

Looks good. Thunder Wave could go over Toxic, but what you have is fine.

Infernape @ Expert Belt
Ability: Blaze
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
Nasty Plot
Flamethrower
Vacuum Wave
Grass Knot
Nature: Timid

This looks good too.

Thanks for that. The reason I've got Tyranitar on my team is just because I have a soft spot for him, and the reason Dragonite's there is because I reckon Dragon's rule... and I prefer Physical attacks to Special ones. Didn't make any sense technically, I know... more of an opinion thing... I dunno... I'm rambling now. I suppose I could stick a Choice Specs Togekiss/Porygon Z in there instead of Tyranitar, and a Milotic or something instead of Dragonite... Comments appreciated though
