Quite frankly, I just downloaded Netbattle and 6-0ed somebody wiht my DDnite. It likes to have EQ though...both gens. It can even use haze...not with the DD set though...
 
Yeah, EQ is really good on Dragonite but I chose waterfall coz I didn't have the TM...
 
Focus punch is good to hit ice types on the switch, but prediction skills are required
 
Right i think this should be my move set now taking bits from everyone:

Dragonite @ Leftovers
Lonely Nature

- Thunderbolt/Thunderpunch
- Dragon Dance/Draco Meteor
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw/Outrage
 
i know you want a mixed sweeper but not really good to have a dragonite with special attacks.i would suggest a dragonite like this.

Dragonite @: Leftovers
Ability: Inner Focus
Adamant/Jolly Nature
Thunder Punch
Dragon Dance
Waterfall/aqua tail
Earthquake/fire punch(but i suggest Earthquake over fire punch)
 
Im only going to be working with my Lonely natured dragonite, so can a dragonite with lonely nature be used as both?
 
Don't forget this guy. It worked in Advance, so can be useful in D/P too:

Dragonite @ Leftovers
Trait: Inner Focus
EV: 252 HP / 56 Att / 188 SpAtt / 14 SpDef
Nature: Brave/Quiet
Substitute
Focus Punch
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt

Yes, quite a good set. The great thing about dragonite is that its movepool allows you to take people by surprise if you wish. It recieved a huge upgrade in D/P, but was a beast in ADV, so now it is more beastific. If you prefer to surprise people, I'd use the DD set but throw in fire blast or flamethrower to laugh at skarm. Basically DD, EQ, Dragon Claw, and one of the fire moves I mentioned. Works very well.
 
Jolly
Move 1: Dragon Dance
Move 2: Outrage
Move 3: Fire Blast/Focus Punch
Move 4: Earthquake
EVs: 58 HP/200 spd/ 252 atk
Item: Life Orb/Leftovers

Dragon Dance + STAB Outrage + Life Orb = Awesome physical sweeping.
It outspeeds most of the commonly used Pokemon (Weavile & co. NOT included =)) and it's attack can come up to 367. If I wouldn't be using my Garchomp, this would definately be an option.
 
Safeguard
Outrage
Roost
Earthquake? (or whatever you want)
 
Rigth well im going to be re-breeding to get the best nature for my dragonite so would it be jolly or adamamant
