I like m-scizor, because this thing is visually good and fits well with many team styles. but m-scizor always struggle with steel disaster aka magnezone, semi-broken heatran, Immortal Celesteela, Et Cetera. so I was thinking how to smash those m-scizor eaters, remembered a SPL Team Blunder and Kickasser used.
When I first saw that team, my thoughts were
No Heatran 3 Steel? Scizor + Kartana = Magnezone Food? No Scarfer? Team looks weak to everything.
But after when i met that team in ladder, I always got smashed and figured out why volcarona exist in that team.
I changed my mind. that team is so sexy. was so creative.
Anyway, I decided to make a team around scizor + volcarona.

If scizor trapped by magnezone, not end of the world. volcarona still has sweeping potential or opponents may have difficulty trapping scizor of potential volcarona sweep.
scizor is standard mix defensive set, volc is defend on team so not yet.

Best spinner of tier, and personally think sp.def exca is little underrated.
+
One of the best defogger, best knock offer, great utility, so many Etc. who hate this mon?
+
Hazard setter and remover is perfect, I need to prepare for opponent's volcarona answer.
Big 3 defensive mon in ou - chansey, heatran, toxapex.
Whirlpool trap fini was my best choice.
+
And I decided volcarona moveset. was Quiver Dance + Fire Blast + Bug Buzz + HP Ground.
Then only toxapex answer for this team is whirlpool fini? that sucks. so I decide to put special agent that lure toxapex.

Threat
To be Honest, this team is pretty weak to many thing. every Hyper Offense, Lopunny, Medicham, Ttar, Et cetera.
I didn't care much about this team until recently.
but as the olt season approched, I try hard but got smashed in high ladder.
I know I am not that good, so I thought I need to fit in high ladder style.
so this team was trash until 1800,
but effective over 1900 which has many balance or semi stall style.
(with luck)
put some replay and peak of proof.
