-Arcanine w/Leftovers
Nature: Impish
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 248 HP, 252 Defense, 8 Attack
Moves: Flare Blitz, Extreme Speed, Toxic, Morning Sun

Superpower+Bullet Punch isn't enough even after a SD:
+1 252+ Atk Mega Scizor Superpower vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Arcanine: 199-235 (51.9 - 61.3%) -- 96.9% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
+1 252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Bullet Punch vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Arcanine: 75-88 (19.5 - 22.9%) -- possible 6HKO after Leftovers recovery

Then goes boom with Flare Blitz.

I never understood Light Metal on Scizor though. It 4x resists Grass Knot, Heavy Slam is rarely seen and it resists that anyway. Heat Crash is Emboar only (and nobody uses Emboar) and it would die even with Light Metal. There's Low Kick, but that's not common either. The only poke that I can think of that runs Low Kick on a semi-regular basis is Tyranitar, but that doesn't wanna eat a Superpower or +2 Bullet Punch.

Light Metal lets regular Scizor (that's holding the Scizorite) switch in and take reduced damage from Low Kick and Grass Knot. Sure, it already resists the latter, but switching in to the former is easier. Plus, its Mega has Technician anyways. In-cartridge Mega Scizor tend to use Technician in their base form simply because Steadfast Scyther are hard to come by.

Anyway:

-Lava Plume
-Earth Power
-Toxic
-Recover
Nature: Bold
EVs: 248 HP/8 Def/252 SDef
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Flame Body

Resists both of Arcanine's moves and is immune to Will-o-Wisp. Does whatever it pleases to Arcanine, mainly by crippling it with Toxic and wearing it down with Earth Power.

Since the OP got updated, might as well throw in one of the OR/AS Megas:

Mega Swampert:
[PokeCommunity.com] Counter that Pokemon! (READ THE FREAKING FIRST POST)

-Waterfall
-Earthquake
-Ice Punch
-Rain Dance
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 104 HP/252 Atk/152 Spe
Item: Swampertite

Mega Swampert is 3HKOed by Earthquake at best (it's only a 43% chance of a 2HKO in regular form), and 2HKOs Rhyperior with Waterfall. It can also set up Rain Dance to make Waterfall an OHKO.
