How does it have 130 hp? On showdown it says mega latios has 80 hp.Actually Mega Latios's stats are 130/130/160/100/120/110, so it has 50 more base HP than you give it credit for.
Edit: Nvm i just noticed why.

Unbanned! (Kangaskhan-Mega) (F) @ KangaskhaniteUnbanlist: Genesect, Aegislash, Skymin, Kangaskhanite, Kyurem-White, Deoxys-Defense
Let me correct those defenses to 40/100/100 for you. Now you know why it's unbanned. Plus, considering that Gengar/Haunter are common (at least I think they are), always run Shadow Ball over Ice Beam. Also because of its horrible bulk, recovery may not be the best idea.Unbanned! (Kangaskhan-Mega) (F) @ Kangaskhanite
Ability: Parental Bond
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Seismic Toss
- Protect
- Wish
- Ice Beam
This is a set I came up with, when I realized Kangaskhanite is unbanned. It works similar to the Seismic Toss set in OU. With Parental Bond, Seismic Toss always does 200 HP. Because of this, Kanga can 2HKO almost any non-HP-invested pokemon in the meta without having any offensive investments itself. 105/100/100 defenses is not bad, but unfortunately he has no reliable recovery outside of Wish. His Attack switches with his Special Attack, so I put Ice Beam in his last slot for hitting bulky dragons like salamence, but this can be replaced with Flamethrower/Fireblast, Thunderbolt, Surf or even Shadow Ball (wow that Special movepool!).
Oh, overlooked that. And Gengar is indeed common, but I have more trouble with salamence. I will correct the HP tho.Let me correct those defenses to 40/100/100 for you.

And to stealth rock...Charizard-Mega-Y @ Charizardite Y
Ability: Drought
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Swords Dance/Belly Drum/Dragon Dance
- Flame Charge/Flare Blitz
- Roost

I have found this Charizard-Y set pretty interesting. It works well to abuse the bulk it was given and bringing SD/BD+Flame Charge to boost or just DD, while roost allows for recovery. The main problem is that with carbink running around, it still dies to rock types.
I would replace Kyurem with Kyurem-black which serves better as a special-defensive wall. It's special bulk is insane with 125/100/170 bulk and it can still hit hard with a 120 base SpA stat which normal Kyurem can't with 90 Atk and SpA. Also imo, breloom doesn't really need the extra recovery of leech seed so you could replace it with focus blast to take out mons like Absol-Mega quicker. All the rest seems fine, althought I prefer Scizor-mega over Genesect, but that's not an option due to Charizard-Y.Latias and Latios have swapped roles, where Latios has become the defensive defogger, while Latias has become an offensive sweeper that doubles as a defogger. I also entertained the idea of using Honchkrow, but I opted for rapid spin due to its ability to keep hazards on my side of the field. I have been laddering with this stall team pretty successfully, tell me what you think!

Eh, Latias works well enough in my experience, but it's true that her power is a little underwhelming thanks to her priority being non-STAB without a reasonable boosting move. And even if she did have Dragon Dance, she'd then have 4MSS because she really wants to run Wish, Sucker Punch, Dragon STAB, and Earthquake for coverage on top of all that.I would replace Kyurem with Kyurem-black which serves better as a special-defensive wall. It's special bulk is insane with 125/100/170 bulk and it can still hit hard with a 120 base SpA stat which normal Kyurem can't with 90 Atk and SpA.

All the rest seems fine, althought I prefer Scizor-mega over Genesect, but that's not an option due to Charizard-Y.
EDIT: Latias isn't that good, because it does not get dragon dance. :(
Unfortunately:Also, has anyone taken a gander at Electivire? It's now got 75/123/85 defenses, which aren't bad at all. 95 Special Attack isn't bad either. I could see a set like the following working as a mixed wall:
Electivire @ Assault Vest
Ability: Motor Drive
Calm Nature
EVs: 252 HP / 100 SpA / 156 SpD
-Charge Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Beam
-Flamethrower
252+ SpA Breloom Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 156+ SpD Assault Vest Electivire: 79-94 (22.3 - 26.5%) -- 19.6% chance to 4HKO
252+ SpA Breloom Focus Blast vs. 252 HP / 156+ SpD Assault Vest Electivire: 127-150 (35.8 - 42.3%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
Meanwhile, if you can snag a Charge Beam boost...
+1 100 SpA Electivire Ice Beam vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Breloom: 166-196 (41.3 - 48.8%) -- 99.9% chance to 3HKO after Poison Heal
I know this probably won't work, but that's just my two cents.
