Thanks to four stackable Ability boosts (Adaptability, Download, Analytic, and Porygon's Ability of choice) and a drawback-less 140BP STAB, Choice Specs Beads of Ruin Porygon-Z could OHKO neutral Arceus formes, nearly OHKO Ice Scales Ho-Oh/Scales AV Toxapex, OHKO Eviolite Imposter with minimal SpD de-EVing, and 2HKO any non-Scales/Tyranitar resists. Foes that could withstand Boomburst would fall victim to coverage (Astral Barrage/Moongeist Beam for Ghosts, Secret Sword/Blue Flare/Armor Cannon for Steels).
Even when restricted Neutralizing Gas could be selected as the custom Ability on native users, meaning native Neutralizing Gas users (mainly Weezing-G) could repeatedly switch in with said Ability (as well as other native Abilities) active. Ability Shield also didn’t protect holders’Abilities from negation via Neutralizing Gas due to Pokebilities’ mechanics. Through negation of opposing passive damage sponge Abilities like Regenerator, Magic Guard, Imposter, and Poison Heal, Neutralizing Gas Knock Off + Salt Cure users could make consistent progress against basically anything that couldn’t offensively threaten it, outlasting the passive defensive cores seen on almost every team.
To prove I am a strong trainer and not just a guy who cheesed his way to round 7 in CCC, I had to use the fully evolved form of my favourite. Band with Adaptability and Libero, along with strong coverage moves, hit very hard. I already made a post with lots of calcs.
I decided to use ZardY to turn Cinderace's V-creates nuclear. Magic Guard is basically the only usable ability on this guy unless you want it to be the nuke, and Life Orb is a nice drawbackless 30% boost to its attacks. I chose Torch Song as my fire STAB as it doesn't have 8 PP and helps it 1v1 lots of stuff. Knock Off is mainly for removing Heavy-Duty Boots and Assault Vests and is just a good move in general. Spikes can punish opposing momentum and has good synergy with Knock Off, and Strength Sap is Strength Sap.
I don't think anyone has ever selected this thing in the teambuilder for anything, and I don't know why I added this to the team, but it's funny.
One of the best sweepers in the tier. I went with Swords Dance over Victory Dance to OHKO Imposter if you're a gamer and win the speed tie, and so if you're not a gamer Cinderace can outspeed Imposter. Protective Pads is for all those stupid Rocky Helmets and Burning Banthismovepleasewarks, and Strength Sap is Strength Sap.
The improof for the 3 offensive mons above. Thunder Cage and Draco Plate Judgement let it improof itself, and Hydro Steam is so I have a water move I can click if sun is up. Strength Sap is Strength Sap. 
Is pex. Acts as another improof for ZardY. I changed Mortal Spin to Rapid Spin after the first battle I'm putting below.
can probably be freed because it's OU now and it's legal in regular PokeAAA
might be broken now that it's NU and already gets a built in defence and evasion boost
is another weather setter that just dropped to NU, not sure if it will be broken though
and 
aren't supposed to be banned but are in the code (doing +Kyurem-Black, +Kyurem-White should fix it)
: Actually really hard to wall without Steelix, since all the answers (Mega Altaria, Ting-Lu, to an extent Ferrothorn) rely on Zekrom running Glaive Rush to complement Bolt Strike so they can survive a hit and retaliate. Glacial Lance OHKOes Altaria and Gliscor unboosted, KOes Ting-Lu at +1, occasionally grants Zekrom safe attacks against Bulwark users, and also KOes everything you'd want Glaive Rush hitting. Most games that aren't dragged out end with a Zekrom sweep. Should probably be banned.
: There aren't many options to Improof Zekrom/Lopunny, but luckily Steelix exists and isn't actually that bad since you underspeed most slow pivots and annoy some of the most common defensive mons (Toxapex, Altaria, Steels, Imposter in general if you count that, Ho-Oh if you're already in and healthy). You can also randomly sponge SE hits to make foes you theoretically cannot reliably answer generally less of a nuisance.
: Also standard, and a decently hard STAB-only Zekrom check. I haven't clicked Nuzzle very much but the move restricts opposing safe plays a decent amount, and Steelix completely Improofs which is nice. PixiSpin/Boomburst are always good.
: An actually good AShield user since you can't have your item removed. Matcha Gotcha is kinda whatever but the random burns (that can also potentially bypass Magic Bounce) are occasionally useful and you dissuade opposing Imposter from trying to sit on you for eternity. Topsy (can be Haze) because you still need setup counterplay beyond raw bulk, while Spikes is theoretically useful though most teams remove too easily to really make use of them. You can also run Strength Sap on Regenerator users without much consequence since you have alternative means of regaining health when against Sapblockers.
: Kinda janky set, but if you don't mind tight playing it gets the job done. King's Rock/Razor Fang are actually banned so you have to use Stench, but that's actually not as bad as it might sound. PopBomb after Coil has a ~65% chance to flinch once (and a ~42% chance to flinch twice), meaning you can sometimes just BS your way through on-paper checks, especially without immunities. Of course, a weighted coinflip is still unreliable for the Lopunny user, but the 65% flinch chance means this exchange is often in the user's favor. Knock serves two purposes: to remove opposing Helmets for the purposes of breaking/sweeping, and removing items in general (especially Ability Shield for Zekrom) whenever Lopunny gets the opportunity to do so (which is decently often given Regenspam enabling the longer games that Leftovers tends to be more impactful in). Encore lets you come in on bulky setup users and gain a couple turns' worth of Leftovers recovery at worst (and potentially safely set up Coil); importantly, Imposter can't directly heal if they happen to hardswap in, over other potential options like Strength Sap. Improofed by Steelix/Hydrapple, though PopBomb flinches against Steelix might mean you encounter (favorable) mindgames with Bulwark/Sap if you're chipped enough.

Smeargle with its insane movepool and scaling allows it to basically run any stone and typing in the game making it hard to have consistent counterplay for if you don't know what its running. It also abuses the broken moves in the format that are allowed due to uncommon letters.
Victory Dance is basically just the V-create enabler allowing the V mons to become bulkier faster and stronger.
