SM OU Offensive Mega Zard team (First Sun and Moon team)

Hello everyone. I'm gonna cut to the chase, I am not very good at teambuilding, or playing, at all. Which is why I'm asking for a rate. The team is focused around Mega Charizard Y, as I like the Pokemon in general and he's a great wallbreaker in OU. (PS, I don't really have time for pictures and colors and stuff, as much as I'd like to add those)

Charizard @ Charizardite Y
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Flamethrower
- Solar Beam
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Ancient Power

Charizard Y is a great wallbreaker in OU. Charizard gets past many common threats in the metagame, such as Tangrowth, Ferrothorn, Skarmory, ETC. But despite his awesome abilities, he is threatened by many common things such as Stealth Rock, Bulky Psychic types (Mew and Tapu Lele I'm looking at you), ETC. Which is why the next Pokemon on my team goes to:

Dugtrio @ Focus Sash
Ability: Arena Trap
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
IVs: 21 HP
- Earthquake
- Reversal
- Screech
- Sucker Punch
I chose Dugtrio because of he is a check to many of Zard's threats. Dugtrio can pressure Toxapex, Heatran (who walls Zard), Chansey, Clefable, ETC. He is also a good revenge killer which is useful as Zard isn't exactly fast.

Excadrill @ Groundium Z
Ability: Sand Rush
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Iron Head
- Rock Slide
- Rapid Spin
Excadrill was chosen to spin away Stealth Rock. Originally he had Stealth Rock, but I changed his set to a sweeper set due to his ability as I have a Ttar. Excadrill helps kill Toxapex, Clefairy, ETC due to his excellent sweeping skills in sandstorms. Rock Slide and Iron Head also have that useful flinch chance.

Tyranitar @ Choice Band
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Stone Edge
- Crunch
- Pursuit
- Earthquake
I chose Ttar as he synergizes with Excadrill and Charizard well. Ttar's ability lets Excadrill sweep while he also pursuit-traps Psychic types who threaten Zard. Stone Edge also kills Flying types that threaten Zard, as well as does solid damage to various Pokemon.

Kartana @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Beast Boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Leaf Blade
- Smart Strike
- Sacred Sword
- Aerial Ace
Kartana was my choice scarfer of choice (see what I did there?). He takes down bulky water types like Tapu Fini like a breeze, Aerial Aces fighting types that are faster than Zard like Lopunny, and Sacred Swords Ferro to prevent SR.

Magearna @ Assault Vest
Ability: Soul-Heart
EVs: 200 HP / 56 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Fleur Cannon
- Flash Cannon
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Volt Switch
Magearna is a bulky pivot who can take a hit for Zard. Volt Switch also gains good momentum and lets Mons get in safely. Although she is a good pivot, I never actually seem to use her as anything but a momentum gainer since she doesn't do much, so I'm willing to replace her.

Thanks for reading, I'm sort of a noobie so please help me fix my team.

Threatlist;
Trick Room Magearna, Rotom Wash, Celesteela, Water Types, Forretress, Tangrowth​
