Good idea! I'll run some calcs.

If I'm still correct salamence's role is still to hit fast and hard as it can, so personally I'll give it a spread like this: 4/4/0/244/4/252 it's almost like the 252/4/252 build but I put 4 EVs each in Hp and SpD because you never know. I like playing with these chances.
The meta hasn't changed all that much from earlier this year. Groudon, Xerneas, M-Salamence, M-Kang, Talonflame, and Smeargle are the new Big 6 for what it's worth. Other Pokémon like Kyogre, M-Rayquaza, Yveltal, Landorus-T, Thundurus, and Crobat are common as well. I'm not a huge fan of VGC this year, but there's not much else for me to do Pokémon-wise while I wait for Sun and Moon to come out!
