While many threats from previous generations struggled to adapt to the new generation, Salamence continues to be a force to be reckoned with, with its relic Dragon Dance set. Dragon Dance is Salamence's vice; it boosts both its Attack and Speed one stage, making it not only more powerful, but due to the Speed boost, also much more difficult to revenge kill. Outrage will be your primary attack. While it may lock you into your Dragon-type STAB for 2-3 turns, the attack's 100% accuracy and 120 Base Power is devastating when combined with Salamence's high Attack and the power boost from Life Orb. After a boost, Outrage will OHKO everything that doesn't resist it with the exception of only the most defensive of Pokemon. However, because a Salamence locked into Outrage is much easier to revenge kill, Dragon Claw is a viable alternative, although there is a significant drop in power. Earthquake has great synergy with Outrage, dealing with the Steel-types that resist it, namely Heatran, Jirachi, Metagross, and Empoleon. Fire Blast rounds off the set with perfect neutral coverage, and gives Salamence a method of dealing with Bronzong, Ferrothorn, and Scizor, among others.Nome Moveset Strumento Abilitŕ Natura Mix Mence Life Orb Prepotenza Rash / Naive Mosse EVs ~ Draco Meteor

While the Dragon Dance set attempts to sweep the opponent's entire team, this set aims to break down walls and wreak as much havoc as possible. Draco Meteor is the crux of the set; in addition to OHKOing most non-Steel-types not named Blissey, Chansey, or Tyranitar, it can surprise many Pokemon who switch in expecting the Dragon Dance variant, such as Hippowdon and Slowbro. Fire Blast is the next staple, which prevents Skarmory, Bronzong, Jirachi, and Scizor from walling Salamence. Of course, if Fire Blast's lack of accuracy is discouraging, Salamence can still use the more reliable Flamethrower, although it will miss out on some damage output.
The decision on the next two moves is where it gets tricky. While Salamence greatly appreciates the powerful STAB Outrage in its arsenal, locking yourself into a move for 2-3 turns could be risky. Should you choose Outrage for Salamence's fourth attack, then Earthquake is your best option for slot #3, as it hits Heatran, who otherwise resists all of its attacks, along with Empoleon and Tentacruel, who can also stand up to Salamence's other moves. Of course, with a weakness to Stealth Rock, Life Orb recoil, and potential sandstorm damage stacking up each turn, Salamence loves having a way to heal itself, and Roost gives Salamence the ability to do so. If you choose Roost instead of Outrage, it is recommended that you use Brick Break instead of Earthquake, as otherwise Blissey will be able to stall Salamence out, since Earthquake can't manage to 2HKO it. Brick Break also hits the omnipresent Tyranitar harder than Earthquake, which is important, as Tyranitar is very capable of taking Salamence's Draco Meteor thanks to its sandstorm-boosted Special Defense.Nome Moveset Strumento Abilitŕ Natura Defensive Leftovers Prepotenza Bold / Relaxed Mosse EVs ~ Wish

While usually regarded as an offensive Pokemon, Salamence can also switch roles and make for an excellent team supporter. Boasting defenses greater than those of Gyarados, Intimidate, reliable recovery, 5 resistances, decent Speed, and a phazing move in STAB Dragon Tail, Salamence can check a wide variety of Pokemon, such as Excadrill and Victini, while simultaneously providing team support thanks to Wish. However, in order to heal reliably, Salamence needs to use either Protect or Roost in addition to Wish. Protect allows Salamence to avoid being hit the turn after Wish is used, guaranteeing that Salamence's health will be restored. On the other hand, Roost allows Salamence to heal itself without waiting an extra turn to do so, which can be useful considering Salamence may want to heal itself on the same turn it would expect to receive an otherwise fatal hit. Roost also has the advantage of eliminating Salamence's Rock and Ice weaknesses for one turn, allowing it to stall out certain Ice Beams and Stone Edges.
Salamence's final two moves are for the sake of both coverage and utility, and for the fact that it would be criminal not to take advantage of Salamence's amazing offensive stats. Dragon Tail forces out stat boosters such as Scrafty and Sigilyph, while also doing a significant amount of damage to most targets. It is highly recommended to use this set alongside Spikes, as forcing opponents out, and thus racking up residual damage when grounded Pokemon switch in, can add up. Finally, Flamethrower is useful to fry certain Pokemon such as Scizor, Ferrothorn, Excadrill, Skarmory, and others.Altre Opzioni
Salamence has numerous additional options at its disposal, and while all of them are usable, there is usually another Pokemon that can do it better. Choice Band Salamence is a devastating force, thanks to the power of Outrage right off the bat. However, with options such as Dragonite and Haxorus available, each with their own advantages over Salamence, its Choice Band set will never truly have the chance to shine, with the exception of on teams that simply try to abuse multiple Dragons. Choice Specs Salamence is also surprisingly powerful, thanks to its base 110 Special Attack stat and moves such as Draco Meteor, Hydro Pump, and Fire Blast. However, with the introduction of Hydreigon, who all but outclasses this set, Choice Specs Salamence should only be used either for its two base Speed points over Hydreigon, or for the sheer surprise factor. Latias and Latios also give Salamence competition for a Choice Specs set due to their higher Speed, Special Attack, and lack of a Stealth Rock weakness. A Choice Scarf set is also usable, but due to Salamence's Stealth Rock weakness, as well as competition it faces from Pokemon such as Hydreigon, it is generally discouraged.
In addition to Choice items, there are several unique ways in which Salamence can take advantage of Dragon Dance. First and foremost, a bulky Dragon Dance set is viable, which takes advantage of Salamence's decent bulk in combination with Roost and Intimidate. The goal of this set is to accumulate multiple Dragon Dances thanks to defensive investment, Roost off any damage taken, and then sweep. However, Salamence must rely on Fire Blast or Earthquake as its secondary attacking move, each of which has its own disadvantages. Dragonite, on the other hand, not only has the more reliable Fire Punch, but also boasts Multiscale, which is generally superior to Intimidate when trying to accumulate multiple boosts.
A Dragon Dance set with Draco Meteor is also usable, as it allows Salamence to unleash a powerful STAB move without locking itself into Outrage. Draco Meteor also has the advantage of doing serious damage to certain physical walls such as Slowbro, Hippowdon, and Gliscor. Of course, this does have several downsides. For one, Fire Blast cannot be used after Draco Meteor, or it will be nowhere nearly as powerful, doing laughable damage to threats such as Skarmory and Bronzong even considering their weakness to Fire moves. Even if Earthquake is used over Fire Blast, Pokemon such as Skarmory, Bronzong, and Ferrothorn become much more capable of walling Salamence, meaning more team support is needed. Lastly, using Draco Meteor forces Salamence to shift either more Attack or Speed EVs into Special Attack in order to have a respectably powerful Draco Meteor, and whichever the choice, those EVs will be missed.Checks & Counters
Because of Salamence's fantastic stats, offensive typing, and enormous movepool, countering all sets at once is virtually impossible. However, there are some Pokemon that come close.
While niche, Porygon2 is the closest thing to a counter to Salamence in existence. Thanks to the new item Eviolite, Porygon2 boasts superb defenses, and thanks to Trace, can use Salamence's own Intimidate against it to weaken its physical attacks even further. Porygon2 can then either paralyze Salamence with Thunder Wave or OHKO it with Ice Beam. Cresselia is your next best bet, as much like Porygon2, she can switch in on nearly any set thanks to her incredible defenses and either cripple Salamence with Thunder Wave or inflict massive damage with Ice Beam. However, Cresselia is 2HKOed by a Choice Band Salamence's Outrage, and takes upwards of 80% minimum from the combination of Draco Meteor and Outrage from MixMence, meaning she is not completely safe. Rhyperior and Regirock in sandstorm can also withstand the majority of Salamence's attacks, although the former can not take a Hydro Pump or boosted Draco Meteor. Registeel can also take two Fire Blasts or Earthquakes, depending on how it is EVed, and can either paralyze Salamence or hit it with Ice Punch. Bronzong can switch in on anything but Fire Blast, and inflict massive damage with either Gyro Ball or Hidden Power Ice.
Steel-types in general are often the first Pokemon to be looked at when considering countering a Dragon-type, as they are the only Pokemon that resist the powerful Outrages and Draco Meteors that dominate the metagame. Choice Band Scizor can switch into any move with the exception of Fire Blast, and deal over 60% damage with Bullet Punch. Metagross, Ferrothorn, Jirachi, Forretress, Skarmory, and other defensive Steel-types can all sponge an Outrage or Draco Meteor and retaliate accordingly. It should be noted that if rain is on the field, both Skarmory and Bronzong become hard counters, as a neutered Fire Blast will not be powerful enough to defeat them so long as they have not sustained prior damage. Overall, forcing a Salamence into locking itself into Outrage should never be one's main strategy in terms of countering it, but should it come to that, it is always a good last resort.
There are several other Pokemon that can switch in on the Dragon Dance set and survive a boosted hit. Swampert, Hippowdon, Suicune, and several others can all take a +1 Outrage, Salamence's best means of offense against them, and attack back with their Ice moves. Quagsire ignores Salamence's stat boosts thanks to Unaware, and can use the Dragon Dance set as setup fodder with Curse. However, if Salamence is running a set with Draco Meteor, this tactic can backfire, as Unaware ignores the Special Attack drops from Draco Meteor as well. Lastly, while it can't take any attacks, and requires good prediction to be effective, Whimsicott can switch in on a Roost or Dragon Dance, Encore it, and proceed to Leech Seed Salamence to death if it stays in.
Weavile and Mamoswine are both excellent users of Ice Shard, and therefore can revenge kill even a +6 Salamence, so long as it doesn't have a Yache Berry; however, neither can risk switching in on a Fire Blast or Draco Meteor. Donphan is also capable of using Ice Shard, and can withstand a boosted Outrage to back it up. However, Donphan's Ice Shard is incredibly weak otherwise, and Donphan itself is not very common in OU play. Cloyster is in the same boat as Donphan, boasting great Defense and having access to Ice Shard (which, unlike Donphan, it gets STAB on).
Unfortunately, revenge killing is also often a common method of dealing with Salamence, as defeating it without losing a Pokemon either requires lots of luck or good prediction, neither of which should be completely depended on. Starmie, Thundurus, Landorus, and Latios all have a higher base Speed than Salamence, and can revenge Salamence either with or without utilizing a Choice Scarf, depending on whether Salamence has a Dragon Dance under its belt. Excadrill in sandstorm can also finish off a weakened Salamence with a Rock Slide, as long as it has not used Dragon Dance twice or more.Dream World
Salamence receives Moxie as its Dream World ability. While a free Attack boost after a kill may seem like an amazing asset at first, it also means that Salamence may not use any moves exclusive to previous generations, the important ones being Outrage and Roost. Because of this, Salamence struggles to gain much use out of its Dream World ability, as it means it would have to use Dragon Claw rather than Outrage on the Dragon Dance set. Intimidate is also a great ability for Salamence, and giving it up could mean the difference between surviving an attack and being KOed by it. While it still has the potential to be very useful, Moxie, once released, will still generally be overshadowed by Intimidate in terms of overall usefulness.
