Give Salazzle a life orb for more power. Replace its flamethrower with fire blast to 1-shot Registeel after 1 nasty plot. Give Milotic marvel scale because damage reduction is more useful for walls. Replace its surf with scald to burn toxic-immune Pokemon. Replace Decidueye's sucker punch with shadow sneak for more reliability. Give Necrozma 4 Atk/252 SpA/252 Spe hasty to outspeed more stuff. Teach it photon geyser for a constant amount of power, heat wave to cover bug and steel, earth power to cover steel, and knock off to remove items.
I agree with most of these things, but the changes to Necrozma make it a whole new set, wich isn't what I wanted but I still appreciate the feedback. Only thing I can say is, well, you aren't guaranteed that you OHKO Registeel with Fire Blast. First of all, Fire Blast has a 15% chance to miss. Secondly, the calcs prove that you most of the time OHKO him, but not Always.
+2 252 SpA Salazzle Fire Blast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Registeel: 348-410 (95.6 - 112.6%) -- 68.8% chance to OHKO after Leftovers recovery
I think your Necrozma does need a whole new set. The one you have is easily checked by toxic and by setup sweepers.
As for the thing about fire blast, I guess Smogon was wrong.
Also why do you Always leave your feedback as a comment rather than an answer? I mean your feedback is really good i.m.o so I don't get why.
I didn't think my feedback was very good, but I guess I'll answer if you really want me to.

Thanks! :D
I'm late, but it's often recommend to use Poisonium Z with Sallazzle. It's high special attack and nasty plot do more than enough damage to most of its opponents but I really like a having a z move to break through common bulky water types. It really helps break through its normal checks.
His Decidueye already has a Z crystal, and Decidueye needs the Z crystal more than Salazzle does.
deci doesnt usually use z crystals, its niche is its typing and defog usually. Offensive sets are subpar.
Sinister Arrow Raid is a very useful and powerful move for Decidueye, especially when it tries getting past Registeel. Salazzle is way better of using a life orb or a sash
Decidueye's Smogon analysis and usage stats both suggest that it likes being able to use Z moves.
eh fair enough
