I Think Tyranitar and Dragonite are two of them...

I'm compiling a guide for just that purpose. It's taking a long time, but I'll give you a preview just for kicks:
Dodrio:
Could lose Hidden Power, in which case it loses much of its steam. With it, however, it's still as fierce a Choice Bander as it was in RSE - fast, diverse, immune to Earthquake, and packing a powerful punch. Should see more usage in this generation unless Hidden Power goes to the special side.

Dewgong:
Signal Beam becomes special so now it has more than just STAB special moves at its disposal. Yet, at the same time, its stats are still not well suited to its purposes and Lapras still outclasses it, so it's not likely to seeing any more performance than it is right now. Needless to say, though, it's still a very awesome Ice defender, but it sure can't do much else.

Actually, they're Salamence, Metagross, Dragonite and Tyranitar.

The big 4 are Tyranitar, Salamence, Gengar,and Metagross. I however have a different opinion. In my big four I would sub Dragonite for Salamence. Grandbull will be helped. Espeon will be helped.

Umbreon could be helped with this new system. And so could Flygon, the Hitmon family, and all others in some way, imo.

I could see Espeon benefiting.

Calm Mind
Psychic
Swift
Shadow Ball

I think that blaziken will get physical blaze kick. Yay!

I'm too coo', foo'
Maybe the starters final evolution from the other generations might be helped. So can other pokemon have been always weak since the very first generation.

I agree. Especially with Espeon now I'm still wondering which Nature for it ( Modest or timid )

Medicham .. pretty much ANY pokemon with a high Attack that has access to the elemental punches.

Porygon 2 because Tri-Attack and Hyper Beam could go off its monster Special Attack. Plus I think it learns Shadow Ball (which may also become a Special attack).

I agree.
Medicham will become almost unstoppable.
Salamence, being a current counter for Medicham, will no longer be able to swap into it because of the access to Ice Punch.
Skarmory wouldn't be able to stop it (not that it didn't get 2HKOed before) with the access to Fire and Thunderpunch.
Bulky Waters won't be able to slow it down with Thunderpunch.

Sneasel and Weavile are finally putting STAB to use with Ice Punch now being physical.

Scizor's going to be f*cked if Silver Wind turns out to be special.

Sneasal and manyula.
Now they will be able to get some STAB damage with things like shadow claw and ice punch.
Scyther may lose out unless they get some more bug moves (I've noticed that they've focussed on dark and poison moves, both were neglected from attacking moves. hopefully they will add some bug moves aswell)
