Hi Smogon!
First off, I apologize for all of the suffering I've been causing on the ladder by introducing Setup Boosting-based fat teams. I understand that this strategy is aggravating to face and only worsens the match-up issue we already deal with on a regular basis. That being said, I'm honestly surprised that there have been a few dominating forces on the Setup Boosting spectrum with looming eyes in the darkness, waiting for a decided player who believes in what they are capable to bring to the table and not disregard them just for how complicated it seems to handle them in hard-fought battles. For what they're worth, Setup Boosting pokemons have always been one of my favorite pokemons and their unique types/stats/abilities have always been intriguing to me.
The Team
This team fares pretty well against all kinds of teams ranging from full stall to cancer rain teams to hyper offense, while being particularly effective against both TR offense and Balanced teams without Dark types. Like any team it has a fair share of weaknesses and most likely has room for improvement, so rates and feedback are always appreciated. Even with the team's shortcomings, I've managed to stay on high ladder for a chunk of time and get many accounts to 1900's. I'd even go far enough to say that the combination of Tapu Koko Screens, Espeon Electric Seed, Necrosma Rest, Clefable Stored Power + Charge Beam, Mega Charizard X Belly Drum and Quagsire Waterium Z is borderline broken, but that's a discussion for another time.
Team Building Process
-------------------------
Team Breakdown
-------------------------
Mega Charizard X
Item: Charizardite X
Ability: Tough Claws
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Nature: Jolly (+Spe, -SpA)
• Flame Charge
• Roost
• Belly Drum
• Dragon Claw
This Hyper Offensive pokemon metaphorically signals the End of Days; the rest of the team takes advantage evenly from its capabilities. Its ability Tough Claws and high attack makes it a strong wallbreaker, but taking into consideration that it gets outsped by commonly used Choice Scarf users such as Greninja, Keldeo, and Garchomp, as well as many offensive Pokemon before getting the +1 Spe boost from Flame Charge, only makes you wanna wonder if it's worth the mega slot.
Roost - Improves Charizard's longevity, eases setup, and allows it to stay out of range of revenge killers.
Flame Charge - You will often choose to set up Flame Charge depending on the makeup of your opponent's team. Flame Charge works best against offensive and slower, bulkier teams without Unaware users.
Dragon Claw - Reliable secondary STAB move that hits most Pokemon that resist Fire for solid damage and has the benefit of not making Mega Charizard X suffer recoil damage, unlike Flare Blitz. While situational,
Belly Drum - While situational, maximizes Mega Charizard X's Attack stat by raising it to +6 stages, that combined with the +1 stage gained from Flame Charge, the supportive Reflect and Light Screen screens, Dragon Claw as a safe option to use against Water-types and Roost to increase survivability and extend your sweep, can only make a legitimate argument about it being paired with screens is what's next.
EV Spread - Maximum Attack investment is used to hit as hard as possible, and a Jolly nature is used to outspeed Jolly Choice Scarf Landorus-T, Jolly Choice Scarf Excadrill, Choice Scarf Tapu Lele, and Modest Choice Scarf Keldeo. This spread also allows Mega Charizard X to outspeed neutral-natured base 100 Pokemon such as Mega Gardevoir and Mega Medicham as well as most Kyurem-B before a Dragon Dance.
Tapu Koko
Item: Light Clay
Ability: Electric Surge
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk)
• Reflect
• Light Screen
• Taunt
• Defog
Tapu Koko's purpose on this team is to provide the team with the defensive boost they need by setting up screens and patch up the team's weaknesses to Toxic Spikes, Roar/Whirlwind users and Taunt/Encore users since it runs Taunt and Defog. Its swiftness to set up screens, hazard removal, and prevent opposing Taunt/Encore users from crippling the sweepers, makes it a go-to facilatate stuff for the Setup Boosting pokemons on the shelf.
Quagsire
Item: Waterium Z
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Nature: Relaxed (+Def, -Spe)
• Aqua Tail
• Recover
• Curse
• Amnesia
Quagsire is my most important line of defense against potent special wallbreakers including Zard Y and LO Tornadus-T. The utility it provides between Boosting moves and Boosting negation in Unaware makes it an essential member of the team for shutting down opposing Setup Boosting pokemons, as well as picking off frail attackers like Weavile, Alakazam and Gengar when it's not fully boosted. Although Waterium Z may seem redundant unlike Leftovers, it gives Quagsire a way of punishing Mega Gyarados, Ash-Greninja, and almost anything else that would normally make Quagsire a dead weight. Increasing your Defensive stages at +6 on opposing offense teams makes them incredibly easy to wear down. This set notoriously cruel to opposing TR teams and teams without Grass type pokemons, usually turning the match-up in my favor.
Clefable
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 172 Def / 84 SpD
Nature: Bold (+Def, -Atk)
• Stored Power
• Soft Boiled
• Cosmic Power
• Charge Beam
In terms of negating Taunt, this set of Clefable is an absolute necessity for Status condition and Recoil Damage control and keeping momentum in the presence of common Taunt setters like Tapu Fini, Greninja and Heatran. Considering the majority of Steel type pokemons with the exception of Magearna, Heatran and Magnezone are physical attackers, I figured a physically defensive spread would make Clefable's job as easy as possible. This set has to facilitate Boosting in the face of strong special attackers Taunt users, all while needing partners that can take on these powerful threats if Clefable is in distress. The Stored Power Clefable hype seems to have died down and people are beginning to realize how much of a nuisance Clefable is with Stored Power/Charge Beam.
Stored power - Gets stronger and stronger as Clefable obtains boosts, becoming incredibly powerful and eventually OHKOing most of the metagame.
Soft Boiled - Keeps Mega Latias healthy over the course of a match, allowing it to survive powerful hits like Landorus-T's Supersonic Skystrike and Mega Pinsir's Return.
Cosmic Power - Boosts Clefable's Special Attack and Special Defense by one stage each, preparing it for a sweep and making it near unbreakable after several boosts.
Charge Beam - Mostly used for strengthening Stored Power and neutral coverage to hit Steel- and Dark-types such as Greninja, Celesteela, and Jirachi while also hitting Pokemon such as Mega Pinsir, Mantine, and Tornadus-T harder initially.
EV Spread - Leftovers increases Clefable's longevity and allows it to check many Pokemon much better. The given Special Defense and HP investment along with a Calm nature allow Clefable to, most of the time, avoid the 2HKO from Mild Life Orb Kyurem-B's Ice Beam, Thundurus's Thunderbolt, Mega Diancie's Moonblast, and Mega Manectric's Thunderbolt. The given Defense and HP investment allow Clefable to avoid the 2HKO from Jolly Mega Lopunny's Return, Latios's Psyshock, and Jolly Mega Gyarados's Waterfall, as well as the OHKO from Choice Band Scizor's Bullet Punch.
Espeon
Item: Electric Seed
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Nature: Bold (+Def, -Atk)
• Stored Power
• Morning Sun
• Calm Mind
• Dazzling Gleam
Espeon is my magic bouncer of choice, as it counters most common hazard setters such as: Heatran, Ferrothorn and Landorous-T. It seems that standard and common Heatran teams are fully prepared to deal with Espeon, whether by being paired with Ash-Greninja or running Firium Z. In the latter situation, Espeon has nothing to fear and becomes a Dazzling Gleam-spammer on Dark type pokemons. When I am forced to use Dazzling Gleam on Dark type pokemons, I can get the kill while leaving Espeon in distress so that the next member of the opposing team gets to reliably revenge kill Espeon, often clearing a path for Necrosma to do whatever it wants now that the opposing team doesn't include a Dark type pokemon. Espeon is also a reliable check to Magma Storm Heatran and plenty of other physical and special attackers Hippowdon and Magearna. Considering my team cannot simply plow through opposing stall, Magic Bounce support is an absolute necessity making it very difficult for the rest of the team to be worn down. Espeon in itself is actually a fairly decent stall-breaker with nothing more than an uninvested Stored Power.
Stored Power - Allows Espeon to OHKO Mega Pinsir after two boosts.
Morning Sun - Great move to recover any HP Espeon lost due to residual damage and allows it to stall out opposing special attackers.
Calm Mind - Boosting move of choice, as it allows Espeon to boost its Special Attack and Stored Power's strength simultaneously. It also has the nifty bonus of making Espeon more specially bulky, and if it is passed a few Defense boosts, it becomes extremely hard to take down.
Dazzling Gleam - Gives Espeon a way to check Tyranitar and hit every Dark-type in OU at least neutrally.
EV/IV Spread - The EV spread provides Espeon with as much physical bulk as possible, as it will have to switch into Pokemon like Hippowdon and Skarmory to avoid phazing moves.
Necrozma
Item: Chesto Berry
Ability: Prism Armor
EVs: 252 HP / 64 Def / 192 SpD
Nature: Calm (+SpD, -Atk)
• Stored Power
• Iron Defense
• Rest
• Calm Mind
Although the team is primarily built around Setup Boosting, the rest of the team benefits equally from Necrozma's stats and ability. For example, common threats like standard Excadrill Hazard Setter, Greninja Sash Lead, Mega "unresisted stab" Pinsir, Latias CM and Gengar LO would otherwise be difficult to wall. Other common threats such as Mega Mawile and Mega Alakazam have to choose between Dark/Ghost coverage and/or setup moves which means that my team would be able to handle any given set. I chose Chesto Berry/Rest over Leftovers/Moonlight, and I believe the latter option is too situational considering the structure and weaknesses of the team. The most common terrain setter at the moment is Tapu Koko, who also happens to be one of the best Taunt users in the tier, thus mitigating Necrozma's ability to deal with Tapu Koko regardless. Tapu Koko and its ability Electric Terrain, however, is really the only prevalent downside to running Chesto Berry, though seeing Tapu Koko on the opposing team doesn't necessarily make Necrozma useless. More often than not, Chesto Berry allows me a free turn to have Necrozma reinvent itself. Furthermore, Chesto Berry ensures that my HP are back to 100 which eases up setup boosting.
Stored Power - Stored Power is Necrozma's sole attacking move, allowing it to hit harder with every stat boost from Calm Mind.
Iron Defense - Forgoes coverage in order to boost Necrozma's Defense, making it nearly impossible for boosting physical attackers to break through it, particularly Swords Dance Bisharp and Dragon Dance Mega Charizard X.
Rest - Rest gives Necrozma a form of instant recovery that not only heals it to full HP but also removes any status conditions.
Calm Mind - Lets Necrozma hit harder and set up freely versus opposing special attackers.
EV/IV Spread - 252 HP EVs and 192 Special Defense EVs, in conjunction with a Calm nature, maximizes Necrozma's special walling prowess. While this may seem like a futile attempt at making Necrozma as bulky as Chansey, it actually allows Necrozma to handily wall various special threats, such as Life Orb Gengar and Greninja, and eventually defeat them.
-------------------------
Threats
-------------------------
Ash-Greninja
I normally don't allow Greninja to transform into Ash-Greninja, but if by any chance it does, make sure to gamble pretty well the Screen/Setup Boosting gimmick. Most of the times, Ash-Greninja will be choice-locked into Dark Pulse, which clefable can certainly take advantage of and set up boosting . Quagsire can handle Ash-Greninja when already augmented by +2 stages os special defense. Espeon can also handle it behind screens by using dazzling gleam. Charizard X can also dispatch Ash-Greninja if it has its Spe stage augmented. All in all, Clefable is the one to be sent out to make front to Ash-Greninja.
Sword Dance Kartana
I highly recommend to keep Necrozma on the shelf because it can potentially cripple Kartana and disrupt its augmented attack by using Iron Defense. If Kartana is being coupled with a Grassy Terrain Tapu Bulu, your best asnwer is to set up screens beforehand, this way you can set up Iron Defense as well as your Stored power benefits from the boost and so that you can wear down kartana due to its lackluster Special Defense.
Taunt Mega Gyarados
In this case, it is suggested that you manage to make as much damage as you can to shorten Mega Gyarados's HP, so that you cripple Mega Gyarados with moves like Charge Beam from Clefable, Dragon Claw from Mega Charizard X. Once all of that has passed, in a 1v1 match the pokemon to switch in to is Quagsire, as its 252 HP / 252 Def investment and its Boosting move Curse would allow it to wall Waterfall-spam so that Quagsire can pick off Mega Gyarados with ease using Waterium Z Hydrop Vortex. Espeon would be useless against Mega Gyarados as Mold breaker Taunt gives the opposing Mega Gyarados the jump on Espeon.
Muk-Alola
The way I handle Muk-Alola is I would normally send out Tapu Koko and try to set screens up. After that, the Mega Charizard X Belly Drum set would get the job done. Other way to finish Muk-Alola up is to take advantage and set up boosting on Clefable as Magic Guard negates Poison status condition.

Team Building Process
The idea of creating a foundation for a team using Setup Boosting didn't come spontaneously. There is this very good friend named Aurella. I remember that by that time I was running a lame Sun team when I got to face Aurella. She was using a team that ultimately became what today's called Bummo. The team went like this:
A few weeks after that I reached out to her and told her that I believe in Setup Boosting being the next big thing in the OU tier. She agreed and inmediately we began testing the team from above to see how it went. It turned out not to be very effective for the following reasons:
1. Mega Venusaur was kind of passive for what the mega slot was demanding.
2. The Clefable set she was running by that time was a Stored Power/Flamethrower which isn't as effective as the Charge Beam set.
3. Reiniclus was running a Kee berry which was very luck dependant considering you had to wait for a physical move to hit you.
4. The Lele set: Psyshock/Draining Kiss/Calm Mind/Iron Defense was as amazing as it is awful.
However, not everything was wrong about this team. Both Ninetails-alola as Quagsire were putting some work. The inspiration for the Quagsire Waterium Z I run on this team came out from Aurella's Quagsire. The only difference is that mines runs Aqua Tail and hers was running Waterfall by that time.
In the wake of all this, we went back to the drawing board and I informed Aurella that the Clefable set must be changed to the Stored Power/Charge Beam set for good as it performs much more efficiently.
Also, I introduced to Aurella this fire Necrosma's set: Necrosma Iron head/Calm Mind/Rest/ Stored power set, and suggested to replace Reuniclus for it.
As the time was passing by we soon came to realization that we should a thrid Stored power user. So after further research I introduced Aurella Sigilyph Stored Power/Charge Beam/Roost/Cosmic Power.
At this point, we weren't pleased by Ninetails as our screen setter, so I employed Tapu Koko.
With this acquisition, Electric Terrain was crippling Sigilyph and so that I was forced to replace Sigilyph for a much better but forsaken Stored Power user: Espeon. At first I thought that Kee Berry was cool on Espeon, but after multiple battles I discovered Electric seed + Electric terrain was better on so many levels.
Next, just when I thought I had it all, I was trying to look for a pokemon that can bring offensive presence to cripple Toxapex Haze and Amoongus Clear Smog. Reason being is that I added Mega Pinsir.
Unfortunately, the team did go high ladder but just not enough and eventually dropped from 1900's to 1600's. So I came to a realization that something is not right about this team. Reason of why I added Mega Sableye CM.
Here is when things get scary, because it was becoming obvious that Mega Gyarados Taunt, Toxapex Haze and Amoongus Clear Smog
were detering my team. For instance, I was reminiscing a Mega Charizard X Set I used to run in the beginning of Kommo-o Belly Drum, so I thought it would an amazing idea to incorporate it on the team, plus I knew how well it performs behind screens.

Tapu Koko
Item: Light Clay
Ability: Electric Surge
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk)
• Reflect
• Light Screen
• Taunt
• Defog
Tapu Koko's purpose on this team is to provide the team with the defensive boost they need by setting up screens and patch up the team's weaknesses to Toxic Spikes, Roar/Whirlwind users and Taunt/Encore users since it runs Taunt and Defog. Its swiftness to set up screens, hazard removal, and prevent opposing Taunt/Encore users from crippling the sweepers, makes it a go-to facilatate stuff for the Setup Boosting pokemons on the shelf.
Quagsire
Item: Waterium Z
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Nature: Relaxed (+Def, -Spe)
• Aqua Tail
• Recover
• Curse
• Amnesia
Quagsire is my most important line of defense against potent special wallbreakers including Zard Y and LO Tornadus-T. The utility it provides between Boosting moves and Boosting negation in Unaware makes it an essential member of the team for shutting down opposing Setup Boosting pokemons, as well as picking off frail attackers like Weavile, Alakazam and Gengar when it's not fully boosted. Although Waterium Z may seem redundant unlike Leftovers, it gives Quagsire a way of punishing Mega Gyarados, Ash-Greninja, and almost anything else that would normally make Quagsire a dead weight. Increasing your Defensive stages at +6 on opposing offense teams makes them incredibly easy to wear down. This set notoriously cruel to opposing TR teams and teams without Grass type pokemons, usually turning the match-up in my favor.
Clefable
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 172 Def / 84 SpD
Nature: Bold (+Def, -Atk)
• Stored Power
• Soft Boiled
• Cosmic Power
• Charge Beam
In terms of negating Taunt, this set of Clefable is an absolute necessity for Status condition and Recoil Damage control and keeping momentum in the presence of common Taunt setters like Tapu Fini, Greninja and Heatran. Considering the majority of Steel type pokemons with the exception of Magearna, Heatran and Magnezone are physical attackers, I figured a physically defensive spread would make Clefable's job as easy as possible. This set has to facilitate Boosting in the face of strong special attackers Taunt users, all while needing partners that can take on these powerful threats if Clefable is in distress. The Stored Power Clefable hype seems to have died down and people are beginning to realize how much of a nuisance Clefable is with Stored Power/Charge Beam.
Stored power - Gets stronger and stronger as Clefable obtains boosts, becoming incredibly powerful and eventually OHKOing most of the metagame.
Soft Boiled - Keeps Mega Latias healthy over the course of a match, allowing it to survive powerful hits like Landorus-T's Supersonic Skystrike and Mega Pinsir's Return.
Cosmic Power - Boosts Clefable's Special Attack and Special Defense by one stage each, preparing it for a sweep and making it near unbreakable after several boosts.
Charge Beam - Mostly used for strengthening Stored Power and neutral coverage to hit Steel- and Dark-types such as Greninja, Celesteela, and Jirachi while also hitting Pokemon such as Mega Pinsir, Mantine, and Tornadus-T harder initially.
EV Spread - Leftovers increases Clefable's longevity and allows it to check many Pokemon much better. The given Special Defense and HP investment along with a Calm nature allow Clefable to, most of the time, avoid the 2HKO from Mild Life Orb Kyurem-B's Ice Beam, Thundurus's Thunderbolt, Mega Diancie's Moonblast, and Mega Manectric's Thunderbolt. The given Defense and HP investment allow Clefable to avoid the 2HKO from Jolly Mega Lopunny's Return, Latios's Psyshock, and Jolly Mega Gyarados's Waterfall, as well as the OHKO from Choice Band Scizor's Bullet Punch.

Espeon
Item: Electric Seed
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Nature: Bold (+Def, -Atk)
• Stored Power
• Morning Sun
• Calm Mind
• Dazzling Gleam
Espeon is my magic bouncer of choice, as it counters most common hazard setters such as: Heatran, Ferrothorn and Landorous-T. It seems that standard and common Heatran teams are fully prepared to deal with Espeon, whether by being paired with Ash-Greninja or running Firium Z. In the latter situation, Espeon has nothing to fear and becomes a Dazzling Gleam-spammer on Dark type pokemons. When I am forced to use Dazzling Gleam on Dark type pokemons, I can get the kill while leaving Espeon in distress so that the next member of the opposing team gets to reliably revenge kill Espeon, often clearing a path for Necrosma to do whatever it wants now that the opposing team doesn't include a Dark type pokemon. Espeon is also a reliable check to Magma Storm Heatran and plenty of other physical and special attackers Hippowdon and Magearna. Considering my team cannot simply plow through opposing stall, Magic Bounce support is an absolute necessity making it very difficult for the rest of the team to be worn down. Espeon in itself is actually a fairly decent stall-breaker with nothing more than an uninvested Stored Power.
Stored Power - Allows Espeon to OHKO Mega Pinsir after two boosts.
Morning Sun - Great move to recover any HP Espeon lost due to residual damage and allows it to stall out opposing special attackers.
Calm Mind - Boosting move of choice, as it allows Espeon to boost its Special Attack and Stored Power's strength simultaneously. It also has the nifty bonus of making Espeon more specially bulky, and if it is passed a few Defense boosts, it becomes extremely hard to take down.
Dazzling Gleam - Gives Espeon a way to check Tyranitar and hit every Dark-type in OU at least neutrally.
EV/IV Spread - The EV spread provides Espeon with as much physical bulk as possible, as it will have to switch into Pokemon like Hippowdon and Skarmory to avoid phazing moves.

Necrozma
Item: Chesto Berry
Ability: Prism Armor
EVs: 252 HP / 64 Def / 192 SpD
Nature: Calm (+SpD, -Atk)
• Stored Power
• Iron Defense
• Rest
• Calm Mind
Although the team is primarily built around Setup Boosting, the rest of the team benefits equally from Necrozma's stats and ability. For example, common threats like standard Excadrill Hazard Setter, Greninja Sash Lead, Mega "unresisted stab" Pinsir, Latias CM and Gengar LO would otherwise be difficult to wall. Other common threats such as Mega Mawile and Mega Alakazam have to choose between Dark/Ghost coverage and/or setup moves which means that my team would be able to handle any given set. I chose Chesto Berry/Rest over Leftovers/Moonlight, and I believe the latter option is too situational considering the structure and weaknesses of the team. The most common terrain setter at the moment is Tapu Koko, who also happens to be one of the best Taunt users in the tier, thus mitigating Necrozma's ability to deal with Tapu Koko regardless. Tapu Koko and its ability Electric Terrain, however, is really the only prevalent downside to running Chesto Berry, though seeing Tapu Koko on the opposing team doesn't necessarily make Necrozma useless. More often than not, Chesto Berry allows me a free turn to have Necrozma reinvent itself. Furthermore, Chesto Berry ensures that my HP are back to 100 which eases up setup boosting.
Stored Power - Stored Power is Necrozma's sole attacking move, allowing it to hit harder with every stat boost from Calm Mind.
Iron Defense - Forgoes coverage in order to boost Necrozma's Defense, making it nearly impossible for boosting physical attackers to break through it, particularly Swords Dance Bisharp and Dragon Dance Mega Charizard X.
Rest - Rest gives Necrozma a form of instant recovery that not only heals it to full HP but also removes any status conditions.
Calm Mind - Lets Necrozma hit harder and set up freely versus opposing special attackers.
EV/IV Spread - 252 HP EVs and 192 Special Defense EVs, in conjunction with a Calm nature, maximizes Necrozma's special walling prowess. While this may seem like a futile attempt at making Necrozma as bulky as Chansey, it actually allows Necrozma to handily wall various special threats, such as Life Orb Gengar and Greninja, and eventually defeat them.

Threats
-------------------------
Ash-Greninja
I normally don't allow Greninja to transform into Ash-Greninja, but if by any chance it does, make sure to gamble pretty well the Screen/Setup Boosting gimmick. Most of the times, Ash-Greninja will be choice-locked into Dark Pulse, which clefable can certainly take advantage of and set up boosting . Quagsire can handle Ash-Greninja when already augmented by +2 stages os special defense. Espeon can also handle it behind screens by using dazzling gleam. Charizard X can also dispatch Ash-Greninja if it has its Spe stage augmented. All in all, Clefable is the one to be sent out to make front to Ash-Greninja.
Sword Dance Kartana
I highly recommend to keep Necrozma on the shelf because it can potentially cripple Kartana and disrupt its augmented attack by using Iron Defense. If Kartana is being coupled with a Grassy Terrain Tapu Bulu, your best asnwer is to set up screens beforehand, this way you can set up Iron Defense as well as your Stored power benefits from the boost and so that you can wear down kartana due to its lackluster Special Defense.
Taunt Mega Gyarados
In this case, it is suggested that you manage to make as much damage as you can to shorten Mega Gyarados's HP, so that you cripple Mega Gyarados with moves like Charge Beam from Clefable, Dragon Claw from Mega Charizard X. Once all of that has passed, in a 1v1 match the pokemon to switch in to is Quagsire, as its 252 HP / 252 Def investment and its Boosting move Curse would allow it to wall Waterfall-spam so that Quagsire can pick off Mega Gyarados with ease using Waterium Z Hydrop Vortex. Espeon would be useless against Mega Gyarados as Mold breaker Taunt gives the opposing Mega Gyarados the jump on Espeon.
Muk-Alola
The way I handle Muk-Alola is I would normally send out Tapu Koko and try to set screens up. After that, the Mega Charizard X Belly Drum set would get the job done. Other way to finish Muk-Alola up is to take advantage and set up boosting on Clefable as Magic Guard negates Poison status condition.

BUMMO is an expression that 100% defines what a Hazardless Setup Boosting team stands for. Exuberantly disgusting to the naked eye, this team does not leave a good taste in the mouth, either giving the jump on this team or just straight up losing. It's head scratching not to get a crit on this boosted pokemons, but I always emphasize players that it's now 1/24 for a crit to occur, being 1/16 in past times. This team is intended to spread fun, but that intent is seemingly taking another direction. I've seen players running this setup boosting team, and one of them confessed me that it felt nauseating beating someone this manner. Someone even told me that this is a team for try-hards, and it was minutes later that I realize that that very same player, not only it kept on joing my battles, but also it was critiquing me out of distaste. More players started labelling this as something you will only see once a month, that adjustments are not needed to be made because facing this team is just as same as facing a Magikarp, it just takes you nowhere. Then after that I was thinking to myself that those players might be running Taunt/Encore/Trick/Dark type pokemons in the upcoming weeks. Furthermore, it's good to know I've always loved the termination ending in "UMMO", reason being is that I added a "B" in the commencement, to represent in the coolest way possible the "B" as in Boosting everywhere it is being used, because I consider Boosting to be a very prevalent playstyle that only needs a little more legitimacy from the players.
