Mew @ Focus Sash
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Defog
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Explosion

Mew is the Suicide Lead in this team. It will set up Stealth Rocks and Spikes (if possible) and use Explosion on low health. I gave it 252 Speed EVs and Jolly Nature so it can outspeed most leads.

Garchomp @ Leftovers
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Scale Shot
- Fire Fang
- Earthquake

Garchomp is the main setup sweeper of this team.


Zeraora @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Plasma Fists
- Knock Off

Zeraora is the Wallbreaker/Late Game Cleaner (role depends on enemy team) in this team.

Latios (M) @ Soul Dew
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Dragon Pulse
- Ice Beam
- Psyshock

Latios is a Backup Setup Sweeper in case Garchomp dies. I gave it Ice Beam to clear one of Garchomp's biggest threats, which is Landorus-T.

Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk

Heatran is a Stallbreaker and a counter towards several common Defensive Pokemon in this tier (Ferrothorn and Toxapex).

Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk

Blacephalon is a Late Game Cleaner or Wall Breaker (also depends on enemy team)
 
what is your answer for Landorous
also i would suggest some different moves on mew other than spikes,
you can be more annoying than dying in just turn3
maybe flamethrower for ferro, thunderwave/will o wisp will also scare people

make them want to take down your mew then they will switch into some of their big hitter and you can burn or para them
stealthrock, flamethrower, explosion and t,wave/will o wisp would be cool i believe

Also feels like a heatran and scarf tapulele will ruin your team to great extent, might want to change something

also the garchomps set is not the very best sweeper in the current meta imo
 
Tbh the main things I dislike with this team are
A) new shouldn't have defog, replace that with something what the person above said, but I would say keep spikes.

B) I dislike heatran on this team quite a bit since its slow and can end up being a momentum drain. I would suggest either using a bulky cm fini set here or something like bisharp or gapdos here instead.

C)Go overheat over fire blast on blace, the extra power matters more, especially since choice mons commonly switch out after killing something.

On a side note, the chomp set looks relatively fine.
