Taunt Dragon Dance Soku Berry
Soku Berry resistance + Taunt to setup Dragon Dance.

Intimidate boosts physical bulk, then Dragon Dance sets up a sweep. Sokno Berry tanks an Electric 4x weakness hit once to force a setup turn. Taunt blocks opposing status moves, boosting stats safely — possible.
Aqua Tail for more power
Waterfall has a 20% flinch chance, but Aqua Tail raises raw power — an option for stronger sweep performance.
Set up Dragon Dance on Intimidate-weakened or favorable matchups to break the team. Taunt shuts down disruption, and STAB plus complementary moves dominate.
Weak to Electric moves from strong attackers
Strong Electric attackers risk OHKOing it. Especially, Mega Manectric can OHKO it depending on EV spread, so fight by including teammates.
Example Threats
Dragon Dance Physical Ace
Intimidate + Mega resistance shift + Dragon Dance sweep.

Pre-Mega Intimidate lowers opponent Attack, then Dragon Dance boosts before Mega-evolving as a physical attacker. Mold Breaker after Mega ignores opposing defensive abilities to push attacks.
Customize for must-win matchups
Ice Fang ignores Dragonite's Multiscale via Mold Breaker, and Power Whip for STAB-resisting Primarina/Azumarill or Mega Gyarados mirrors are recommended.
With Mega-boosted bulk and Intimidate, set up Dragon Dance to sweep as an ace. Mold Breaker ignores Levitate/Sturdy for stable damage, dominating the field — its role.
Bulky Grass types
Against Grass it fights with the weaker Ice Fang, so Mega-Evolved Grass with high bulk are tough. Plan around them if seen on the opposing team.
