Basically, if you didn't know, Drag+Mag is a teamstyle of usually weatherless offense in Gen 5 OU. Magnet Pull Magnezone removes the Steel types like Skarmory, Ferrothorn, and Scizor who give Dragon types trouble due to their Outrage and Draco Meteor resistance. I'm looking for some good non-Dragon type abusers.

I remember reading Mamoswine and Politoed were good, but I don’t recall where that was
Mamoswine I can understand since you can easily stop getting swept by a Scarfed Garchomp or Salamence locked into Outrage, but I don't know why Politoed is there. It weaknes Mag's HP Fire and doesn't offer any direct team support other than cancelling sand and being threatening to Tyranitar which threatens Latios. It isn't really needed that much on a mostly weatherless team

Mamoswine is a good choice due to it giving you safety against other dragons

Trick room Reuniclus as it can solve one of the issues with drag mag, short of speed. For example, scarf Latios outspeeds everything but what happens if you run into opposing scarf Latios?

Standard drag mag usually has Jirachi, Magnezone, Band Kyurem Black, Latios and Garchomp. Those two are just a some examples of non dragons on drag mag but you can probably find more in this video
