Finished!
I forgot my score but it's 58-22 @1850 or some BS.
Team used below:

I learned quite a few things during this ordeal:
Xerneas + [insert defenive mon here] + Mega Mom in that order is a dang good core and my team's ill-prepared for it.
My Yveltal's bad HP and Defense IVs were so costly; it could not stomach Fake Out + Return from Mega Kangaskhan at all.
I'm a dummy for having Tailwind on Talent Fame instead of Will-o-miss.
My team is super-weak to strong electric types, but I literally saw no other electric types than Rotom-A
and a few Ampharos. Most other electric types either had to occupy a mega slot or had several drawbacks
that would deter others from putting them in their team in the first place.
Mega Aerodactyl f@!&s Talonflame in its feathery ass.That's mostly why I picked
Mega Aerodactyl as my mega: I wanted something that hits fast and hard, and checkmates Talonflame.
...Stone Edge still sucks. Triple bird core I had in mind worked well when I went in with those three.
Turn 0 mindgames are too much; I want to bring Xerneas but dammit they have Scizor AND Ferrothorn AND Talonflame,
so I pick guys that match up poorly against my opponent who's one step ahead and counters my lineup anyway.
Picking Xerneas or what have you despite that worked out in my favor sometimes, because they felt safe with just
implying the thread of those 3 and leaving them out of battle for whatever reason.
Yveltal with Asssault Vest is best Yveltal; it beats opposing Yveltal with LO (thanks to mine's low speed IV and quiet nature, I was sure to
tank a hit from it and sap its health to slowly beat them), most special attackers (even Rotom!), and Aegislash...sometimes.
They can be built to live a Dark Pulse from non-LO variants...and retaliate back with WP-boosted moves. Ow.
And now to get in the lab for Season 4 of the Special ladder: Inverse Battle hype.
