This is another team I built, focused around Mega Sableye, Metagross and Greninja. Metagross is there to counter Sableye's only weakness, to fairy. Greninja is there to counter Meta's fire weakness. Mence is a Z-Move Physical Sweeper, Koko is a Special Sweeper, and Toxapex is a Wall.

I would appreciate any feedback anyone has. I have tested this out on Showdown, and it has been fairly successful so far.

I think Metagross is outclassed by Heatran. Salamence should know dragon claw instead of dragon rush because dragon rush's low accuracy makes it, on average, deal less damage than dragon claw. Additionally, especially since you have dragon dance, Salamence should be able to one-shot most things with dragon claw, so the extra power hardly matters.
