If this team is for PU, I wish you good luck. Dragon Pokemon will be rare. I mean extremely rare.

Here's a list of all obtainable Dragon Pokemon ingame:
  • Dragonite
  • Kingdra
  • Flygon
  • Altaria
  • Salamence
  • Garchomp
  • Haxorus
  • Druddigon
  • Hydreigon

As you can see, there are 9.

Ya its really hard to rate that since only 3 will be catchable. Is this your proposed PU team? Well let me give criticism for the three that will be catchable then:

Terrible movesets and item choices for all three. Looks like you just grabbed 4 moves at random and threw them on your pokemon.

Also the dragons that you gave are all good dragons, and to replace the three legendaries using Kamaran's list, i would chose Kingdra, Flygon, and one of the new dragons, i dont know enough about them yet tho. However Kingdra and Flygon are very good if you learn to use them right.

Legendarys: won't say anything.
Dragonite: Dragon Dance, Roost, Outrage, Stone Edge. That is the best move set for him
Garchomp: Swords Dance, Earthquake, Fire Fang/Crunch, Stone Edge. That is the recommended set for him.
Salamence: Dragon Dance, Stone Edge, Earthquake, Outrage. Classic Salamence set.

For items Dragonite gets leftovers, Garchomp a Yache Berry and Salamence a Life Orb.
Now for the other 3. Kingdra, Hydreigon, Haxorus.

Just to clarify.
The Smogon website is pretty much outdated when it comes to Movesets.
Their forum however, is the real deal.

Yeah all of your movesets and natures are terrible!

Now that I said that, I wouldn't go with the Dragonite sets the others are telling you to go with just because they are outdated for gen 5.

Try this:
Dragonite @ Leftovers
EVs: 96 Atk/252 Def/156 Sp.Def
Ability-Multi Scale
Moves: Roost, Dragon Tail, Fire Punch/Earthquake, Thunder Punch


This set focuses on Dragonite's new ability, Multi Scale. With Multi Scale, all damage done to you is halved when you're at full HP. Roost makes sure you stay at full HP. Dragon Tail is ment for phazing and racking up damage if you have entry hazards and is a quick way to get rid of threats that would switch in. Fire Punch, Earthquake, and Thunderpunch are for Ice types, Steel types, and Water types, respectively, that would love to switch into your D-nite wall. This set works well as a lead or as something to come in after you have set down spikes/ t-spikes/ stealth rock. The EVs are for a more deffensive take and the 96 Atk EVs are just enough to be able to KO a few threats. No speed EVs because I didn't think you would need them since Dragon Tail has a lower priority and goes last in the round anyway. Plus with Multi-Scale, you won't need to outspeed anything since it will take ALOT to KO you.

This isn't my team for PU, Since I won't use Legends. It probaly lookes random Viper because I like versatility and I never really had the chance to play compettetively. Natures are terrible because That's how I caught them (Legendaries). Palkia I had to trade for because I only have Diamond. The others I can breed. Anyhow, Thanks for the help!

Dude...

I have a huge problem with people looking up stuff like this.  I think that guides of any type ruin games, because they take away the surprise.  With a guide of any sort you lose the feeling of discovery.  And honestly what's the point of raising a pokemon if I already know everything it can do?

(I'm not trying to be a dick but, I just think any type of guide makes a game not worth playing.  and yes your link is a guide, a move set guide.)

Natures are actually a pretty important part so when you make your team for PU i would suggest looking up what each one does if you dont know them already.

Wait...what? Another horrible team? Anyway back to topic. Why is Garchomp holding Charcol? You know that raises fire type moves, right? Garchomp doesn't get stab on it so its kinda a waste of an item. Maybe give it a life orb?
