This is a team I formulated around Mega Medicham.
The problem with using Blissey is that she gets knocked out very easily by physical attackers regardless of how many EVs you distribute into health and defense plus Taunt shuts it down too easily.
Running Torterra may be a problem seeing as how it creates more weaknesses than it covers plus it shares a common weakness with your Mega Medicham.
Dragonite, no matter how you see it, gets shut down too easily. Once the multiscale is broken, its an easy OHKO by common threats such as Terrakion, Landorus, Kangaskhan, Sylveon, Bisharp, Mamoswine, Weavile, Ludicolo, Politoed, Thundurus and this list seriously could go on.
Empoleon could work but it depends on how you would play it. It has amazing special attack as I've said but for it to work, you would have to incorporate speed control methods such as Trick Room, Thunder Wave and Tailwind to get use out of it. It can be a good support Pokemon but for it to work, the Pokemon that threaten it would need to be removed.
Thanks for sharing your Mega Medicham team. It's a great reference point for me as I go back and critically assess what I need to do to make mine work. Looks like Dragonite needs to go, plus possibly Torterra. Seems also as though Blissey may not be the answer I was seeking.
At any rate, I'll tweak my setup some more. I'm playing around with some spreads and movesets for Dragalge at the moment, so I'll see if there's a way that it can fit here.
Thank you, Marcus! Your feedback is always immensely appreciated.
