Here’s a brief list

Draco meteor: the most powerful attackDark pulse: STABDragon pulse: STABFocus blast: good coverage with his stabs, inaccurateFire blast: great for steel types, bug types and ice typesFlamethrower: see aboveEarth power: more steel coverage, accurate powerful and may lower opponents special defenseSurf: a good, powerful, neutral attack with decent coverageCharge beam: weak, but hydreigon’s only way of boosting

Personally, I think the best set for Hydreigon is…

Hydreigon @ Choice SpecsTrait: LevitateEVs: 252 SAttk / 252 Spd / 4 HPModest Nature-Draco Meteor/Dragon Pulse-Flamethrower/Fire Blast-Dark Pulse-Surf

Hydreigon has a wide Movepool of Special Attacks that it can put it’s massive Base 125 Special Attack Stat to use. There include:

Below will be some standard Sets that can use some of the Moves listed above.

Hydreigon (M) @ LeftoversTrait: LevitateEVs: 176 HP / 52 Def / 172 SAtk / 108 SpdTimid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)- Draco Meteor- Earth Power- Charge Beam- Substitute

A unique but popular Set that makes use of the powerfulDraco Meteorwhile negating it’s nasty side-effect withCharge Beam. The given Set takes advantage of it’s surprisingly nice Bulk, allowing it to outspeed several Pokemon while also surviving the inevitableMach PunchorIce Shardfrom Breloom or Mamoswine, respectively.

Hydreigon (M) @ Choice ScarfTrait: LevitateEVs: 36 Def / 220 SAtk / 252 SpdTimid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)- U-turn- Draco Meteor / Dragon Pulse- Earth Power- Surf / Flamethrower

A Basic Scarf Set that patches up it’s middling Speed and while decimating the opponents Team.
