Mimikyu @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Disguise
Level: 50
Tera Type: Normal / Stellar
EVs: 228 HP / 252 Atk / 20 Def / 4 SpD / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Play Rough
- Shadow Sneak
- Curse
- Endure

By combining Rocky Helmet with Disguise, Mimikyu shows off its passive damage potential against contact attackers like Koraidon and Zacian-C. While its offensive profile may not be the focus of this set, it shouldn't be disregarded; Play Rough provides a lot of pressure in a meta filled with Dragon-types, and Shadow Sneak gives great cleaning power while forcing respect from Calyrex-S. Mimikyu can use Curse to further stack damage sources or punish targets like Leech Seed Calyrex-I that can play around Rocky Helmet. Endure can help seal a target's fate by buying an additional turn of Rocky Helmet and Curse damage. All these factors can create a hard time limit on sweepers and ruin their momentum. With the given EV spread, Mimikyu has enough bulk to survive Adamant Chien-Pao's Icicle Crash after Disguise breaks. Terastallizing Mimikyu is uncommon but can be done in a pinch, such as to block Ghost-type attacks with Tera Normal or power up Shadow Sneak with Tera Stellar or Tera Ghost.

The only thing I'd add if you got enough space is that this Mimikyu's use of passive damage is pretty good at screwing up late-game sweeps from Koraidon and Zacian-C. So like not just doing passive damage, but that said passive damage puts a hard time limit on them that will usually ruin their chance to sweep.

EDIT: Also swap Ghost for Stellar in light of recent team reports!

Otherwise, this looks good to me! QC Approved 1/1!

Also, for GP: While I understand you can only have 2 slash-ins, for this one it was REALLY tough picking between Tera Ghost and Tera Stellar since this Mimikyu is known for using 3 Tera types, so I personally don't mind the Tera Ghost mention if that's OK!
