If Carbink does get rejected, I want Sigilyph. If Xatu is usable beyond Magic Guard, Sigilyph is better.
Refer to my rant in the Previews for backup on this.
Xatu has Magic Bounce, which is why it's usable in OU.

Does Umbreon deserve an analysis? Faces competition from Mandibuzz and I guess Ttar but it has a lot of cool things to play around with like Wish, Heal Bell, Yawn, etc that allows it to fulfill a better *support* role, unlike Mandi who's more of a pivot and Tar who's more of a tank. Also it lacks Mandi's Volt Switch and SR weakness while having significantly higher SpD, as well as lacking Tar's Water weakness and boasts recovery over it too. Plus thanks to Heal Bell it isn't screwed over by status like the other two are. Faces competition from Sylveon too but Umbreon actually has existent physical bulk and has a positive matchup against mons like Gengar.
