Darkerones!!!
Bulbasaur has always had vines in the anime. It's a shame it doesn't have any vines in the actual game.
A better Sludge Bomb would be awesome.

Name: Solar Flare
Type: Fire
Base Power: -
Accuracy: [(level of user-level of target) + 30]%
PP: 5 (max. 8)
Category: Special
Secondary Effects: OHKO
Move it Replaces: Inferno
Description: The target is attacked with a blast of super-heated plasma. The target faints instantly if this attack hits.

Explanation: It is a Fire-type OHKO move. Since Charizard's HA is Solar Power and CharY's is Drought this move fits the pokemon perfectly.
 
Name: Blazing Warrior
Type: Fire
Base Power: -
Accuracy: -
PP: 15 (max. 24)
Category: Status
Secondary Effects: +2 Attack, +1 Accuracy, +1 Speed
Move it Replaces: Dragon Dance
Description: The user takes on it's bravery in fiery dance, raising it's Attack sharply while raising it's accuracy and Speed.

Explanation: It is a better Dragon Dance. Mega Charizard X looks a brave Dragon, so it could help it sweep better. It also gives more use out of low accuracy moves like Dragon Rush and Iron Tail.
 
Name : Sky Vortex
Type : Flying
Base Power : 100
Accuracy : 95%
PP : 10 (Max 17)
Category : Special
Secondary Effects: 30% chance to confuse foe
Move it replaces : Air Slash
Description : The user flaps its massive wings and generates a tornado. It has a 30% chance to confuse foe.

Explanation : Mega Charizard Y is said to be a great flyer with much bigger wings than its base form. With such large wings, the gusts it makes from those wings make tornadoes

Name : Sky Strike
Type : Flying
Base Power : 100
Accuracy : 95%
PP : 10 (Max 17)
Category : Special
Secondary Effect : Does ×2 to fyling types and Levitators
Move it replaces : Air Slash
Description : The user summons a blast of air from its great wings and strikes the opponent. It hits flying types and Pokémon with Levitate for ×2.

Explanation : Mega Charizard Y is part flying type, but lacks good flying STAB. Sky Strike fixes this with a powerful and reliable flying type move. Plus it hits Levitators and Flying types for ×2 damage, making Lati@s no longer safe switch ins.

Sorry, but "Sky Strike" sounds like the name of a physical Flying-type move. Not only that, why would a Flying-type move deal super effective damage to another Flying-type (or Levitate user)? If anything, the wind it produces would just help the Flying-types (and Levitate users) go faster. Not only that, your explanation lacks relation to flavor or creativity, it just focuses on Mega Charizard Y's competitive standpoint. I'm afraid I won't be able to put this into the voting stage until it's changed into something more creative. :[

Edit: And I know Ticktock's explanation is really short, but he also includes flavor relating to how Mega Charizard X looks like a brave dragon, which helps justify why it would make it stronger and faster, because when you're brave, you can become those aforementioned two things.

And I PMed vzxt about his submission already
 
Name: Summer's End
Type: Fire
Base Power: 140
Accuracy: 85%
PP: 5
Category: Special
Secondary Effects: 10% to Burn, 10% to lower Accuracy, 100% to -2 SpA
Move it Replaces: Overheat
Description: The user draws from the power of the sun and releases a massive torrent of flames at the opponent. The attack's recoil harshly lowers the user's Sp. Atk stat.

Explanation: Basically, it beefs up Overheat. There's nothing really special about it.
 
Name: Heat Lash
Type: Fire
Base Power: 40
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 30
Category: Special
Secondary Effects: +1 Priority
Move It Replaces: Wildfire
Description: The user sends a whirl of concentrated heat at the target. This move always goes first.

Explanation: Priority is something both Charizard forms lack, and while Charizard X can largely makes up for it with Dragon Dance, Charizard Y is oftentimes prone to be revenge killed. Therefore, Heat Lash is mainly intended as a tool for Charizard Y to keep up against offensive teams, being a decently strong move in sunlight that allows it to hit the frail and fast foes which usually give it trouble.
 
Name: Tarragon Stomp
Type: Dragon
Base Power: 110
Accuracy: 95%
PP: 10 (Max 16)
Category: Physical
Secondary Effects: 20% flinch chance + makes contact + doubled power and perfect accuracy against Minimized targets
Move It Replaces: Dragon Rush
Description: "Using its strong feet, the user stomps hard on the opponent. It may make the target flinch."

Explanation: Mega Charizard X's legs appear to have gotten stronger and more physically fit upon Mega Evolution, so I wanted to make a beefed up Stomp to utilize this aspect. This offers a stronger Dragon type move than Dragon Claw without resorting to the risky Outrage.
The flinch effect could also turn some matches around if Charizard X can outspeed the opponent, either through the use of Dragon Dance or its own unboosted Speed.
I've chosen to replace Dragon Rush becuase this move entirely outclasses it while sharing the same amount of PP. I'm open for some changes should Rhythms find it necessary.
 
Name: Tornado
Type: Flying
Base power: 80
Accuracy: 85%
PP: 10-16
Catagory: Special that hits on the physical side
Special effect: Move hits with 1+ priority if user has higher HP than its opponent
Replaces: Hurricane
Desc: Hurricane has gotten useless on Zard Y because of the accuracy drop, so Charizard focuses it's wings to create a tornado who will hit individual enemies, thought it still retains its crappy accuracy, so it's not broken.

Competitive: This move will remove one of Zard Ys biggest weaknesses, which is faster mons, such as Lati@s, Gengar, Keldeo, Terrakion, Mega Lopunny ect. With this move you're free to spam fire blast pretty freely, as very few things will have more HP than zard Y after taking a fire blast, like Keldeo.

Calc:

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Latios: 213-252 (70.5 - 83.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 212 HP / 0 Def Latias: 195-229 (55 - 64.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gengar: 268-316 (103.4 - 122%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Mega Lopunny: 372-440 (137.2 - 162.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 96 HP / 0- Def Tornadus-T: 237-280 (73.3 - 86.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 4 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey: 235-277 (36.6 - 43.1%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Mega Alakazam: 250-295 (99.6 - 117.5%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Mega Altaria: 163-193 (56 - 66.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Politoed: 225-265 (58.7 - 69.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Tornado vs. 248 HP / 68 Def Victini: 166-196 (41.1 - 48.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
 
Name: Backdraft
Type: Fire
Base Power: 80
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 5 (max. 8)
Category: Special
Secondary Effects: +1 Priority (Works if the target uses a move from the Physical or Special category. Fails if the target uses a move from the Status category or if the target has already moved this turn.)
Move it Replaces: Scary Face
Description: "This move enables the user to attack first. This move fails if the target is not readying an attack."

Explanation: All of the Charizard have the same mediocre base speed of 100, but the physical variants at least get Dragon Dance to make up for it.
Since creating a "special" Dragon Dance would be kind of boring, why don't we just give it a special Fire-type Sucker Punch to deal with revenge killers and faster fragile threats?

Ain't no rule that I can't suddenly join
Name: Quick Gale
Type: Flying
Base Power: 60
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 10
Category: Special
Secondary Effects: +1 Priority
Move it Replaces: Wildfire
Description: Charizard warms up the air to make it move easier, sending a gale at the foe before they can even move.

Explanation: Charizard Y lacks two big things: Priority, and a good Flying STAB. This solves both of them. I doubt you have questions.
 
Name: Flare strike
Type: fire and flying(like how flying press is flying and fighting)
Base Power: 95
Accuracy: 95%
PP: 15
Category: physical
Secondary Effects: 10% chance to burn
Move it Replaces: fly
Description: The Pokemon strikes their opponent in the air surrounded by fire
 
Name: Fiery Dance Frenetic Dance(forgot fiery dance was a move lol)
Type: Fire
Base Power: -
Accuracy: -
PP: 15 (max. 24)
Category: Status
Secondary Effects: +2 Attack, +2 Special Attack, +2 Speed, 25% recoil to self
Description: The user dances a risky, frenetic dance. Boosts attack, defense, and speed.

Explanation: Charizard's NU presence is based on Solar Power. I think that this move continues with the recoil theme. This move might be a better or worse version of Geomancy. Both Mega Charizard's become very deadly threats after a Frenetic Dance.
