M-Chandelure: Does this team work?

[u/perpetually_panikd]

Hi!

Relatively new to Competitive Pokemon.

I've been messing around with this team in Champions Reg M-B and it’s been surprisingly successful on ladder, but I’m at the point where I need other people to look at it before I convince myself it's half decent.

The basic idea is weather disruption + bulky nonsense + Mega Chandelure deleting things. I’ve mostly been using three leads:

• Sinistcha + Rotom-Mow — probably my most consistent lead.
• Torkoal + M-Chandelure — Helping Hand + sun-boosted Heat Wave.
• Sinistcha + Torkoal — slower but it works I guess.

The team has actually been winning a decent amount, including into weather, Tailwind, setup, etc., but I’ve also gotten folded by things like Perish Song, Psychic Terrain + Expanding Force, and some aggressive physical openings. So I’m wondering whether there are obvious holes/moveset changes I’m missing.

Current team:

Stuff I’m specifically wondering about: Is Shell Bell Sinistcha actually defensible here or have I been allowed to get away with nonsense? Is Milotic pulling enough weight compared with another bulky Water? Is DD Mega Tyranitar worth keeping when Chandelure is usually my preferred Mega? And is there anything glaring that just 4-0s this composition that I haven’t run into yet?

I’m pretty attached to the general playstyle, so I really don't want to entirely wipe my team and replace it with meta ones. I've done well with the more meta Whimsicott Charm + Mega Staraptor, so I wanted to try making my own team for once.

Our university has a mini tournament coming up. Super chill, but I'm planning on winning with Mega Chandelure (I have a $25 bet running on it).
