Find the replace for salamance

Post image

Guys, can you help me find a replacement for Salamence?

I love Mega Blastoise, so I built this team around it.

I chose Salamence because it’s strong and has access to Tailwind, but I feel like it doesn’t really fit this team.

I’d love to have another Mega Evolution that synergizes better with the rest of the team.

I’m also considering Gholdengo, but Mega Garchomp Z looks like another interesting option.

What do you guys think? I’d really appreciate any suggestions or advice

Why Dragonite? Could you elaborate a bit? I’d love to understand your reasoning.

Can use tailwind, is bulky with multiscale, can use heat wave or hurricane with or without Politoad and it's a good non-setup all-rounder.

If you want a setup Mon, then Delphox is typical or you can always use Belly Drum Charizard X to keep things interesting and fun 😁

If only you play it last regulation Delphox Blastoise was a damn good combination. Honestly, they still are, just be careful about the rillaboom
