    latios - levitate ability [knows ice beam, luster purge, recover, and shadow ball]
    volcarona - flame body ability [knows quiver dance, bug buzz, hurricane, flamethrower]
    virizion - justified ability [knows swords dance, sacred sword, close combat, leaf blade]

    Scizor must always use Technician as its ability, as it powers up its main move, Bullet Punch:
    -Swords Dance
    -Bullet Punch
    -Knock Off/X-Scissor/Bug Bite
    -Roost
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 248 HP/44 Atk/116 Def/100 SDef
    Item: Scizorite/Leftovers
    Ability: Technician

    or
    -Swords Dance
    -Bullet Punch
    -U-turn/Bug Bite/X-Scissor/Superpower/Brick Break
    -Knock Off/Pursuit
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Scizorite/Life Orb
    Ability: Technician

    or
    -U-turn
    -Bullet Punch
    -Superpower/Brick Break
    -Pursuit/Knock Off
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 248 HP/252 Atk/8 SDef
    Item: Choice Band
    Ability: Technician

    Latios has better coverage options than Ice Beam and Shadow Ball. Luster Purge is inferior to Psychic and Psyshock, which pack more power:
    -Draco Meteor
    -Psyshock
    -Thunderbolt/Hidden Power (Fighting)/Earthquake
    -Defog/Roost/Recover
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb

    or
    -Draco Meteor
    -Psyshock
    -Surf/Hidden Power (Fire)
    -Trick/Hidden Power (Fire)
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf

    Fire Blast or Fiery Dance > Flamethrower on Volcarona. The former has more power, while the latter has a 50/50 chance of increasing Special Attack further:
    -Quiver Dance
    -Bug Buzz
    -Fire Blast/Fiery Dance
    -Giga Drain/Psychic/Roost
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 136 HP/252 SAtk/120 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Flame Body

    See my post in the Simple Questions thread for that Mega Kangaskhan set.

    Sylveon without Pixilate is inferior because Hyper Voice gives it the offensive power it needs, even without Special Attack investment. You need Poke Bank for this, though:
    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Hyper Voice
    -Heal Bell/Calm Mind
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/216 Def/40 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Pixilate

    or
    -Hyper Voice
    -Shadow Ball
    -Psyshock
    -Hidden Power (Fire/Ground)/Baton Pass
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 244 HP/252 SAtk/12 Spe
    Item: Choice Specs
    Ability: Pixilate
