Pokemon of the Week: Dragonite!

   The new Pokemon of the Week is...Dragonite! Dragonite is a Dragon/Flying Type with the Ability Inner Focus and the Hidden Ability Multiscale. You can't catch Dragonite in XY or ORAS, but you can catch it's previous forms, Dratini and Dragonair. 
   In XY you can catch Dratini by fishing on Route 21, and you can't catch it in ORAS.  In XY you can catch Dragonair by fishing on Route 21 or in a Dragon Type Friend Safari, and you can't catch it in ORAS either.
                    Dratini                                                                       Dragonair
Dratini       Dragonite         Dragonair                                                            Dragonite
   The best Ability for Dragonite is Inner Focus. What this Ability does is it prevents the user from flinching, except when your opponent's Pokemon has a contradicting Ability. (i.e. Mold Breaker or Turboblaze) 
   A good moveset for Dragonite consists of Dragon Rush, Outrage, Hurricane, and Dragon Claw. They're all powerful moves that will get a STAB. That goes for all moves on the list. Note: You'll have to teach Dragonite Dragon Claw via TM.
  A good item for Dragonite to hold is the Dragon Fang. The Dragon Fang boosts the power of Dragon Type moves by 20%.
   So that's how I'd use Dragonite! Be sure to leave alternate ways to use Dragonite or a suggestion for next week's Pokemon of the Week in the comments!
