    Is this for Battle Spot or for standard OU? Mega Salamence and Aegislash are banned to Ubers.

    Battle Spot:
    Your current Salamence set runs no Normal moves whatsoever. This is important in order to take advantage of its Aerilate ability, which makes said Normal moves Flying type. Fly is useless in comparison. Crunch gives Salamence little to no coverage and Salamence no longer needs its Dragon STAB as much since Aerilated attacks have good neutral coverage:
    -Dragon Dance
    -Double-Edge/Return
    -Earthquake
    -Roost/Substitute/Fire Blast/Draco Meteor
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant/Naive/Naughty
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Salamencite
    Ability: Intimidate

    or
    -Draco Meteor
    -Double-Edge
    -Fire Blast
    -Earthquake/Roost/Hyper Voice
    Nature: Naive/Rash
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Salamencite
    Ability: Intimidate

    or
    -Substitute
    -Toxic
    -Roost
    -Return/Double-Edge
    Nature: Jolly
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Salamencite
    Ability: Intimidate

    Tyranitar doesn't have much use for Thunderbolt, as its Rock STAB handles Flying targets just fine; it still hits Water Pokemon reasonably hard:
    -Rock Tomb/Stone Edge
    -Pursuit/Stealth Rock
    -Ice Punch
    -Superpower/Earthquake/Crunch
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Assault Vest/Chople Berry/Lum Berry/Smooth Rock
    Ability: Sand Stream

    or
    -Stone Edge/Rock Slide
    -Crunch/Earthquake/Superpower
    -Pursuit
    -Ice Punch/Ice Beam
    Nature: Jolly/Naive
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf
    Ability: Sand Stream

    or
    -Stone Edge/Rock Slide
    -Crunch
    -Pursuit/Ice Punch
    -Earthquake/Superpower
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 48 HP/252 Atk/4 Def/204 Spe
    Item: Choice Band
    Ability: Sand Stream

    If you're giving Empoleon physical moves, you're doing it wrong because its Special Attack is superior. Azumarill outclasses Empoleon as a Water physical attacker because of its better offensive presence thanks to its Huge Power ability:
    -Waterfall
    -Aqua Jet
    -Play Rough
    -Knock Off/Superpower
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 228 HP/252 Atk/12 Def/12 SDef/4 Spe
    Item: Choice Band/Assault Vest/Lum Berry
    Ability: Huge Power

    or
    -Belly Drum
    -Aqua Jet
    -Play Rough
    -Knock Off/Superpower/Waterfall
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 228 HP/252 Atk/12 Def/12 SDef/4 Spe
    Item: Sitrus Berry
    Ability: Huge Power

    Flygon is badly outclassed by other Ground Pokemon such as Garchomp and Excadrill. While 100 as a best stat isn't bad, it isn't good either. Excadrill is the better pick of the two in this case because it benefits from Tyranitar's sandstorm thanks to Sand Rush:
    -Earthquake
    -Iron Head
    -Rock Slide
    -Rapid Spin/Swords Dance
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Sand Rush

    Hypnosis + Dream Eater is a bad combination because switching will render Dream Eater moot. I can't think of anything else to replace it other than Cresselia as a bulky supporter. Before you ask why I'm suggesting a legendary, this is because legendary status has nothing to do with competitive viability:
    -Psychic/Lunar Dance
    -Ice Beam
    -Moonlight
    -Lunar Dance/Thunder Wave/Toxic
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Rocky Helmet

    If you still want to use Gardevoir, however, it can act as a backup Mega Evolution:
    -Psyshock
    -Hyper Voice
    -Focus Blast/Taunt
    -Hidden Power (Fire/Ground)/Focus Blast
    Nature: Modest/Timid
    EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Gardevoirite
    Ability: Trace

    Aegislash has better options than Swords Dance + King's Shield because this particular strategy is very easily played around:
    -Shadow Ball
    -Shadow Sneak
    -Flash Cannon/Sacred Sword
    -King's Shield
    Nature: Quiet
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef
    Item: Weakness Policy/Leftovers/Spooky Plate/Spell Tag

    or
    -Substitute
    -Toxic
    -King's Shield
    -Shadow Ball/Flash Cannon
    Nature: Modest/Timid
    EVs: 252 HP/252 SAtk/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Iron Head/Shadow Claw
    -Shadow Sneak
    -Sacred Sword
    -Swords Dance/King's Shield
    Nature: Adamant/Brave
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef
    Item: Life Orb/Weakness Policy

    Smogon OU:

    Salamence's Mega Stone is banned to Ubers, meaning it can't be used in standard play. Regular Salamence is outclassed by Dragonite and Garchomp. I'd take the latter because the former's Multiscale will be broken in Tyranitar's sandstorm:
    -Swords Dance
    -Outrage/Dragon Claw
    -Earthquake
    -Fire Fang
    Nature: Jolly
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Lum Berry

    or
    -Stealth Rock
    -Outrage/Dragon Claw
    -Earthquake
    -Fire Blast/Swords Dance
    Nature: Naive
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Focus Sash/Lum Berry

    or
    -Stealth Rock
    -Dragon Tail
    -Earthquake
    -Fire Blast/Toxic
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 240 HP/176 Def/92 Spe
    Item: Rocky Helmet
    Ability: Rough Skin

    or
    -Draco Meteor
    -Earthquake
    -Fire Blast
    -Stealth Rock/Stone Edge
    Nature: Naive
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb

    or
    -Outrage
    -Earthquake
    -Stone Edge/Fire Blast
    -Dragon Claw/Fire Blast
    Nature: Jolly/Naive
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf

    What I said about Tyranitar above also applies here:
    -Stone Edge
    -Crunch
    -Pursuit
    -Superpower/Earthquake
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe (Jolly) or 100 HP/252 Atk/156 Spe (Adamant)
    Item: Choice Scarf (Jolly)/Choice Band (Adamant)
    Ability: Sand Stream

    or
    -Stealth Rock
    -Stone Edge
    -Crunch/Ice Beam/Fire Blast
    -Pursuit
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 248 HP/80 Def/180 SDef
    Item: Smooth Rock/Chople Berry
    Ability: Sand Stream

    As I already mentioned, Azumarill outclasses Empoleon as a bulky Water Pokemon. On another note, it synergizes well with Tyranitar because it resists its Fighting and Water weaknesses:
    offensive presence thanks to its Huge Power ability:
    -Waterfall
    -Aqua Jet
    -Play Rough
    -Knock Off/Superpower
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 164 HP/252 Atk/92 Spe (Choice Band) or 240 HP/252 Atk/16 SDef (Assault Vest)
    Item: Choice Band/Assault Vest
    Ability: Huge Power

    Flygon is still outclassed by its fellow Ground Pokemon in OU play. Excadrill also synergizes with Tyranitar:
    -Earthquake
    -Iron Head
    -Rock Slide
    -Rapid Spin/Swords Dance
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Sand Rush

    Mega Gardevoir is better than its regular counterpart because of its Pixilated Hyper Voices:
    -Psyshock
    -Hyper Voice
    -Focus Blast
    -Taunt/Calm Mind/Will-o-Wisp
    Nature: Timid/Modest
    EVs: 16 HP/8 Def/232 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Gardevoirite
    Ability: Trace

    You can also consider Clefable, as it has Magic Guard to protect itself from sandstorm damage:
    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Moonblast
    -Heal Bell/Aromatherapy
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 248 HP/252 Def/8 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Unaware

    or
    -Moonblast
    -Fire Blast
    -Focus Blast/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam
    -Soft-Boiled/Moonlight
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 252 HP/252 SAtk/4 SDef
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Magic Guard

    or
    -Calm Mind
    -Moonblast
    -Thunder Wave
    -Soft-Boiled/Moonlight
    Nature: Calm
    EVs: 252 HP/172 Def/84 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Magic Guard

    Aegislash is an Uber. Gengar is a better idea for a Ghost attacker:
    -Shadow Ball
    -Sludge Bomb/Sludge Wave
    -Focus Blast
    -Taunt/Icy Wind/Destiny Bond
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb

    or
    -Hex
    -Sludge Wave/Substitute
    -Taunt
    -Will-o-Wisp
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 8 HP/248 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Black Sludge
