No explanation necessary. Obviously the best OU team in existence. If you suggest replacing any of the first five Pokémon with anything else then you are wrong.

Random numbers

Atk
367 Dragonite
310 Salamence
306 Gabite
299 Flygon
226 Kingdra
176 Altaria

SAtk
328 Dragonite
316 Salamence
203 Kingdra
176 Flygon
158 Altaria
122 Gabite


Spd
492 Flygon
394 Gabite
328 Salamence
220 Kingdra
196 Altaria
177 Dragonite

Def
303 Kingdra
226 Altaria
226 Dragonite
196 Flygon
196 Salamence
166 Gabite

SDef
330 Altaria
236 Dragonite
226 Kingdra
196 Flygon
176 Salamence
146 Gabite



Notes:
This team auto-loses to Scarf Starmie and Scarf HP Ice Gengar (obviously). Altaria can BARELY take one HP Ice from the Gengar, and BARELY one Ice Beam from Starmie, but outspeeds neither and has zero kill options against them. Everything else dies without exception. Also, a good set of walls made of water or physically strong ghosts can live through anything dished out at them. Otherwise, this team stomps on any non-optimal balance team, and sweeps like none other if up against only one ice threat (using Flygon or Gabite to eat the Life Orb/Choice Specs variants, or both to beat the walls) or none at all (Dragons will trade one-for-one at best for the opponent).

Use a steel that isn't crappy, like Metagross.

Other than that, best team in the game.

This team is terrible, use 4drag2mag instead.

Aka Dragonite/Kingdra/Salamence/Flygon/Magnezone/Magneton, all have Scarf.

Is the opposing Pokemon Steel? --> Switch to Magnezone/Magneton
Is the opposing Pokemon not Steel? --> Outrage/Draco Meteor.

Who in the world claims that the best team ever is bad then suggests using Pokémon that aren't Dragons?!

Why would you Scarf all of them? Dragonite has a priority move.

yea, species clause doesn't say anything against evolution lines

like, i fought someone who had both porygon2 and porygon-z, i questioned it and he told me that it's completely legal since they are different pokemon

I've actually been running this team a lot because it's really enjoyable to be starting the game with a known disadvantage. :x

It's really funny when I encounter a team with no Ice Beam, or only one that can't get past Kingdra.
