    not going to be mean but your Arcanine is a hack and you are running to many stab moves on the same pokemon

    Ampharos (M)
    Item: Leftovers
    Trait: Static
    Modest Nature
    - thunder wave
    - Focus Blast
    - thunderbolt
    - Substitute
    Charge is a waste of a move slot; you'll do more damage with two thunderbolts. This way, you can at least hit ground types for some damage.

    Arcanine (M)
    Item: Choice band / Life Orb
    Trait: Drought Intimidate or Flash Fire
    Adamant Nature
    - Extreme speed
    - Flare Blitz
    - Close Combat
    - Wild Charge
    Life orb is preferable for versatility. Bite is a a weak move that provides little useful coverage - Wild Charge for water types. Also, you're thinking of Ninetales, RK9 doesn't get drought.

    Excadril (M)
    Item: Leftovers
    Trait: Sandrush
    Adamant Nature
    - Swords Dance
    - Earthquake
    - Rockslide
    - X-Scissor/Crush Claw/filler
    Swords dance for more powah and when in doubt, throw a Leftovers on it.
    X-Scissor hits grass types, they can usually resist wall you. Alternatively, Crush Claw can lower defense while you attack. Kind of gimmicky, but Excadrill doesn't really need much coverage outside of Earthquake+Rock Slide. The last move can be whatever.

    Oh god Dragonite can be so much more than this.

    ]Dragonite@Leftovers/whatever
    ]Lonely | Multiscale
    • Dragon Dance
    • Dragon Claw / Outrage
    • Earthquake / Roost
    • Fire Blast

    My preferred mixed dragon dance variant, Dragon+Ground provides coverage against all but Skarmory and Bronzong - physical walls. Fire Blast takes care of that.

    Umbreon (M)
    Item: Leftovers
    Trait: Synchronize
    Careful Nature
    - Crunch / Wish / Moonlight
    - Toxic
    - Dig
    - Protect
    No one will switch on you in-game, nor Earthquake/Magnetude you. And since steel types are immune to Toxic and resistant to Crunch, Dig seems optimal for stalling and hurting steels. This makes Crunch fairly useless. Try using recovery like Wish or Moonlight.

    Lapras (M)
    Item: Leftovers
    Trait: Water Absorb
    Calm Nature
    - Ice Beam
    - Surf
    - Heal Bell
    - Thunderbolt
    Perish song is too slow, just use Thunderbolt for coverage. Other water types wall you with ease.

    good luck

    Who puts Bite on Arcanine when it can learn Crunch ? And like the two above said , either you got a hacked one or you were mixing its ability up with Ninetales . If you're using an Adamant one , Choice Scarf may be a better option . if it's Jolly then Choice Band would be okay . This is my suggestion for Arcanine ,

    @Choice Band/Choice Scarf/Life Orb
    Trait: Intimidate
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    Flare Blitz
    Close Combat
    Wild Charge
    ExtremeSpeed / Crunch

    Dragonite
    Item Leftover/Life Orb/Lum Berry
    Nature Adamant/Jolly
    Ability Multiscale
    Move Set
    Dragon Dance
    Roost
    Dragon Claw/Outrage
    Fire Punch
    Dragon Dance for more Attack and Speed which help you to sweep your opponent Pokemon
    Roost help you to use Multiscale Ability again by gaining HP by half
    Dragon Claw for a good STAB move or Outrage for more power if you don't mind about using the same move for 2 or 3 turns.
    Fire Punch for a lot more coverage, also it can kill Levitate Steel Pokemon which may ruin Dragonite
    Leftover will let Dragonite gain HP every turn, Life Orb for more Attack or Lum Berry to let Dragonite recover from confuse after it use Outrage

    As everybody said, Arcanine can't have Drought Ability, I think you are confuse because of Ninetales.
    Hope this help
