Which is the better Pokemon?

Question

My brother and I are having a debate over who's Dragon is better. he thinks mine is Cheap. I say otherwise.

his:
Salamence(M) @ Focus Sash
Trait: Intimidate
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
EVs: 252 Atk/ 160 Spd/ 88 HP
- Outrage
- Earthquake
- Fire Fang
- Crunch

note: he picked the Nature, Trait; and Moveset. I just helped with the EVs cuz he's a total noob.

or mine:
Dragonite(M) @ Yache Berry
Trait: Multiscale
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
EVs: 252 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 4 HP
- Dragon Claw
- Fire Punch
- ExtremeSpeed
- Roost

for the record, mine always wins unless he has laid SR and I fail to remove it before the two square off.

Your bro isn't using Salamence right, scarfed Moxmence is the way to go

---

Agreed

---

I've told him this. but his Sally is Jolly Natured so its Atk stat sits at 383 or so, my D-Nite is 403. he seems to think Intimidate hurts me more haha

---

Well, with intimidate d-nite's atk becomes 302, which is considerably less, but it really depends on the circumstances.

---

But he likes Spikes put usually neglects SR. so Even at 303 Atk, Multiscale allows me 2 303 Atk STAB Dragon Claws for x2 damage, versus his one 383 Atk STAB 120 Outrage for x2 damage, then dmg/2 (Multiscale)

Answer 1

Dragonite.
Here is how goes
Dragonite used dragon claw
Salamance held on with it's focus sash
Salamance used outrage
It did 40% damage
Dragonite used dragon claw
Salamance died.

THANK YOU!!! now if it was inner Focus D-nite i know it'd be different, but abilities count ;)

---

Did you count the Intimidate factor?

---

and you have to consider if Stealth Rocks are in as well

---

Yes I counted all the factors.

He loses if stealth rock is in tough
