[SET COMMENTS]
- Dragonite is a strong attacker with great coverage at its disposal that is able to hit almost all of the metagame, and with its ability Multiscale, it can survive a long amount of time.
- Extreme Speed is a great move to pick up low HP targets and Tera Blast gives it a strong STAB move that can deal huge damage to almost any pokemon. Low Kick allows it to OHKO Kingambit and hit Incineroar for super effective damage, while Stomping Tantrum is able to hit Gholdengo which would otherwise wall it, but doesn't hit Kingambit for as much damage. Ice Spinner is good on Assault Vest sets, to deal good damage through Multiscale into opposing Dragonite and OHKO Garchomp.
- Tera-Flying is used to give Dragonite a STAB move in Tera Blast
- Lum Berry is very useful since this metagame is full of status inflicting moves, such as Dire Claw from Sneasler and Spore from Amoonguss. Assault Vest's added Special defense makes it incredibly tough to remove, since it is already quite bulky with its natural bulk and ability.
- Dragonite is a great partner for Garchomp, since it is immune to Earthquake and can hit pokémon that would usually be problematic for it, such as Rillaboom and Amoonguss. Since it is quite vulnerable to Intimidate, Dragonite can pair really well with Kingambit, which can punish that really well with its ability Defiant, and also resisting and hitting for super effective opposing Fairy, Ghost and Ice-types that could cause Dragonite trouble, such as Gholdengo and A-Ninetales. Sneasler can work well with Dragonite too, using Coaching and allowing it to do massive damage, and also hit the Fairy and Ice Types previously mentioned.
- Gholdengo can cause trouble to Dragonite, being able to wall the Low Kick variants and setting up in front of it. A-Ninetales can also be difficult to deal with, since it does huge damage to it with Blizzard, even through Multiscale and tera. Clefable is able to survive and redirect Dragonite's attacks from more threatening pokemon, such as a Gholdengo or Ursaluna-B, and also hit it pretty hard with Moonblast. Corviknight is able to wall Dragonite easily, and setup with Bulk Up and Iron Defense to take even less damage. While not being able to pressure it offensively very much, Incineroar can heavily reduce its offensive power with Intimidate and Parting Shot and break Multiscale with Fake Out.

Multi-Hit Attacker (Dragonite) @ Loaded Dice
Ability: Multiscale
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 84 HP / 204 Atk / 4 Def / 4 SpD / 212 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Extreme Speed
- Scale Shot
- Low Kick / Haze
- Protect
- This Dragonite set is able to OHKO Focus Sash users such as Sneasler and work as a faster threat with the speed boosts provided by Scale Shot.
- Haze can be useful in Dondozo weak teams, being able to instantly get rid of its boosts or to stop a sweep from pokemon such as Kingambit and Gholdengo.
- With these EVs, Dragonite outspeeds Sneasler after a speed boost.
- Fairy tera is important against opposing Dragon-types such as other Scale Shot Dragonite which could otherwise OHKO it through Multiscale, Dragapult and Garchomp.
- This set has an even better sinergy with Sneasler, because with the speed boost and the attack boost, it can do massive damage to a lot of pokémon and sweep through teams often.
- Dragonite struggles with any Fairy-types, since it relies on Scale Shot as its main attacking move, and in this situation it has to use the much weaker Extreme Speed.
