Your basic mega Salamence build is with a jolly nature 252 atk and speed Evs. Moves would be double edge, dragon dance, protect, and Earthquake. Also your ability before mega evolving is usually intimidate just to fire it off the once before transforming but with the bisharps and milotic a roaming around that could be risky

Here's a set I have from Showdown
Salamence-Mega @Salamencite
Ability: Intimidate/Aerilate
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 20 HP / 196 Atk / 4 Def / 60 SpD / 228 Spe
Moveset:
Double-Edge
Earthquake
Dragon Dance/Roost
Protect
This ev spread upon after mega evolution allows Mega Salamence to take unboosted/unSTAB Ice Beams from base 85 special attack pokemon with at least 112 investment from the likes of Suicune all the time. The speed investment is just enough to out speed neutral Choice Scarf Politoed and +1 DD Adamant Mega T-Tar. The rest is just dumped into attack for obvious damage output. Now aerilate Double-Edge makes Mega Salamence an absolute powerhouse that will ohko any frail pokemon or severally deny anything unresisted. Now Earthquake is just for coverage and to hit any Electric/Steel/Rock types that might take any flying hit from Mega Mence. Dragon Dance and roost is essentially up to you to decide. Obviously Dragon Dance is there to further bolster Mence's attack and speed for more offensive pressure while Roost allows for longevity.

If Im not mistaken you can go adament for a physical beast. Drop 252 into attack and 252 into speed 4 in def. Run Double Edge, Dragon Dance, Earthquake and Dragon Claw. Its not typical but it works well.
RE: mega salamance build - Vexian - Feb 24, 2015
With so much ice coverage running around and Salamence being 4x weak to it if run jolly over adamant. The last thing you want to do is get out sped by something and completely waste your would be power house mega
