This is one of my few OU pokemon because I never battle with OU pokemon. I actually bred this shortly before Alakazam moved up to the OU tier, which I probably should've seen coming because of its wonderful dream world ability called Magic Guard. This ability gives Alakazam immunity to weather, recoil, and status damage. As I recall I've only used this pokemon once in a triple battle so I'm not sure if it also gives immunity to entry hazards. The strategy to this set is simple since it is your basic special sweeper EV spread. Ideally, you want to safely switch in Alakazam, set up Substitute to further block status, then start blasting away. With all the coverage that Psychic, Ghost, and Fighting type attacks provide, alongside the power of Life Orb without the recoil damage, 135 base Special Attack and 120 base Speed, you're sure to do some serious damage to the opposition.

Just a side note: You'll notice that the IVs are terrible. That's because I don't RNG or IV breed. I prefer legit breeds, and as for IV breeding I just don't have that much patience. I mostly leave the IVs up to chance and just work with what I have.
