Yes, just replace Earth Power and Substitute with Flash Cannon and Draco Meteor.

Hydreigon is one of the scariest wallbreakers out there, as after aNasty Plot boost, there are only a handful of Pokemon that canwithstand its attacks. It is most commonly used on balance and bulkyoffensive teams looking to blow holes in opposing balance teams. Italso carries some defensive utility with it, most notably being asolid check to Rotom-H and serving as a Ghost-resistant Pokemon, whichmakes playing around Choice Specs Dragapult much easier. Fast Pokemonthat can clean up after it, such as Dragapult and Zeraora, make forappropriate teammates. Teleport users like Blissey and Slowbro arealso much appreciated, as they are able to soak up a hit and bring itin safely afterwards.

That’s what it said on Smogon.

Here’s the set in Smogon:

Hydreigon @ Life Orb Ability: Levitate EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 SpeTimid Nature- Nasty Plot- Draco Meteor- Flash Cannon- Roost

I mean, that’s the reason Hydreigon got to OU, right?

Hope this helps :).
