Thanks for catching me. Revised with HP electric.

Gyara hits 241 Speed to Empoleon's 219, t2 you're forced to win a 50/50 while they choose between Earthquaking again or clicking Taunt / Dragon Dance. If they get it right, you either die on t2 or have to get a double endure on turn 3

In My Mud (Mudsdale) @ White Herb
Ability: Stamina
EVs: 196 HP / 252 Atk / 60 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Low Sweep
- Heavy Slam
- Rock Tomb

252+ Atk Mudsdale Earthquake vs. 176 HP / 156 Def Manectric-Mega: 350-414 (107.6 - 127.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO

20 SpA Manectric-Mega Hidden Power Grass vs. 196 HP / 0 SpD Mudsdale: 132-156 (33.8 - 40%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
20 SpA Manectric-Mega Overheat vs. 196 HP / 0 SpD Mudsdale: 141-166 (36.1 - 42.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

252+ Atk Mudsdale Heavy Slam (120 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Diancie-Mega: 516-608 (214.1 - 252.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252 SpA Diancie-Mega Moonblast vs. 196 HP / 0 SpD Mudsdale: 208-246 (53.3 - 63%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

On this one youre gonna have to trust me or go test yourself kek. Mudsdale lives worst case scenario of +3 outrage which lets you KO with eq. If they never mega you can keep spamming rock tomb till the end then you spam low sweep incase they mega evolve. If they mega at the last minute stamina saves you from +2 killing you so you can just low kick twice regardless. If they mega early and attack after 1 dd then you also outpace. Its kinda really hard to show without me posting a million replays but I am not in the mood to do that right now so maybe later. If you feel like testing it out maybe post the replays if you care enough. (my brain hates keeping track of the gimmicks)

Btw it seems unnecessary to bulk for +1 Gyarados given that +1 Supersonic Skystrike and +1 Fly kills Gyarados already:
+1 56 Atk Landorus-Therian Supersonic Skystrike (175 BP) vs. 84 HP / 252+ Def Gyarados-Mega: 276-325 (78.4 - 92.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
+1 56 Atk Landorus-Therian Fly vs. 84 HP / 252+ Def Gyarados-Mega: 142-168 (40.3 - 47.7%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
If Gyarados DD twice to reach +1, they can only land one Outrage.

then you lunge again and zarude evaporates

these calcs provide an ALMOST 3-0, but zarude still has a very slim chance to kill with power whip. and power whip can still miss
HOWEVER.
if you change the nature from careful to impish, you will 100% beat zarude and have a small chance to lose to heatran.

this is why you run gravity lando, kids
 
:mabosstiff:
Mabosstiff @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Intimidate
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 252 HP / 28 Def / 60 SpD
Relaxed Nature
- Comeuppance

Heatran is choice locked and dies to one hit of Comeuppance if it uses Fire Blast or Steel Beam. Otherwise, none of them can do 50% in one hit (barring a crit), and taking 75% total is more than enough to KO any of them with Comeuppance; thanks to the extra HP from Sitrus, once Mabosstiff is weak enough that the opponent could kill it the next turn, it will immediately finish the opponent off.
