Celebi is a cool edition to any Psychic-type team I ended up changing it to a Groundium Z set to allow it to take on Steel-types like Heatran. Next is time to add a Physical attacker to take care of Special walls for Celebi and what better than Band Victini and Mega Gallade. Victini along with Mega Gallade and this Celebi set very much break Steel-type teams as well as Victini being able to take on Pokemon such as Celesteela fairly easily, which gives Celebi a bit of trouble. Band Victini breaks the Normal- and Grass-type defensive cores for Celebi. Victini can also cripple walls with Trick, locking them into a single move. Mega Gallade is the physical setup sweeper of the team and is a great teammate for Victini as they both heavily pressure even the most defensive physical walls and can help each other break through the others checks. So about now I realized the team was pretty slow with Mega Gallade being the fastest Pokemon so I added Choice Scarf with Latios, this set is great because not only is it a great emergency Defogger but can always check Scarf Heracross even with sticky web up. Latias also works as a choice scarfer on this team due to its access to healing wish giving the team dual healing wish, being able to do the same things as latios, but give the setup sweepers yet another chance. Jirachi gives Mega Gallade and Celebi a second chance to setup with healing wish and can cripple fast threats like scarf heracross with thunder wave. Jirachi also is able to setup rocks and has enough speed investment to be faster then diggersby and potentially beat it down with Iron Head. Finally, the last member of the team is p much a staple on Psychic in Gen7 with access to Magic Guard + Counter, Alakazam can tackle some of Psychic-types biggest threats such as Mega Sharpedo and Bisharp with ease.
