I recently got my hands on the recent Lugia event. Now that it is out, I definitely want to abuse the heck out of Hurricane. So I've come up with a couple sets for Lugia
Singles
Rain Special Attacker
Modest nature
252 SpA 252 Spd
Multiscale
Life Orb/Waterium Z
Moves: Hurricane, Thunder, Rain Dance/Ice Beam/Hydro Pump, Roost/Giga Drain/Earth Power
Mixed Rain Attacker
Naive/Hasty nature
4 SpA 252 ATK 252 Spd
Multiscale
Moves: Hurricane, Thunder, Earthquake/Dragon Tail, Roost
These are just a few that come to mind atm, only for single though. What do you guys think?

Sadly, offensive Lugia is a complete and utter meme.
Base 90 Special Attack won't scare anything. Especially not in an environment where these kinds of legendaries are legal.
Life Orb counteracts Multiscale, the one exceptional thing your Lugia has going for it.
IF, and this is a big if, you are really set on making an offensive Lugia work then your best bet would be to build a Calm Mind moveset that can actually play to Lugia's main strength, its ridiculous staying power. Though at that point you'd have to ask yourself why you aren't using Aeroblast over Hurricane in the first place...

I've been toying with the idea of using Lugia in a Weather team. With the inclusion of Hurricane, i wanted to use Lugia in a Rain team. Now that you mention it, Life Orb does go against Lugia's Multiscale.
So i guess i could revise one moveset as:
Hurricane
Thunder
Calm Mind
Roost
Aside from Leftovers or berries like Sitris berry, I'm not sure what other items would work well for Lugia.

Leftovers would definitely be the item for something like this.
The main problem here would be that both of your offensive moves heavily rely on rain being active and Lugia has no way to start it.
Boosting with Calm Mind takes turns and rain will run out by the time you are ready to attack with a boosted Lugia.
Especially in Singles where you can't partner Lugia with something that provides the rain next to it.
The other problem is that Flying + Electric is mediocre offensive coverage at best.
Hurricane is the powerful STAB, okay. 70% accuracy is horrible and Aeroblast would most likely be better here, but you want to use it so it is what it is.
Thunder doesn't really do anything for you though besides give you style points for running it with rain. Boosted Hurricane should be sufficient against most Flying- and Water-types, which aren't the biggest threats to Lugia anyway.
Electric-types on the other hand resist both of your attacks and can hit you for serious damage with their STABs.
Replace Thunder with something that works outside of the rain and at least does decent damage against Electric-types imo.
All of this is completely from a just for fun perspective. From a competitive standpoint, none of this is ideal.
