Team: Mimikyu or Togekiss?

Question

Hello, so while still in use of USUM, i'm trying out different sets of teams and I was thinking of switching out choice scarf Togekiss with Mimikyu. Mimikyu isn't the best in attack, but has decent sp. def and speed with the use of the right nature, as well as good STAB moves and a free turn thanks to Disguise, so I didnt know if I could get an opinion. Be aware my team may consist of less tanks than usual, but as I said, i'm trying to get ideas for competitive strategy. Here's my current team:

Greninja
Ability: Battle Bond
Nature: Modest
Item: Choice Specs
252 Sp. Atk/252 Speed/4 Sp. Def
Water Shuriken/Dark Pulse/Extrasensory/Ice Beam

Infernape
Ability: Iron Fist
Nature: Jolly
Item: Focus Sash
252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP
Fire Punch/Thunder Punch/Close Combat/Swords Dance

Ambipom
Ability: Technician
Nature: Adamant
Item: Life Orb
252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 Def
Fake Out/Last Resort

Shuckle
Ability: Contrary
Nature: Bold
Item: Iapapa Berry
252 Defense / 252 Sp. Def / 4 HP
Stealth Rock/Sticky Web/Protect/Encore

Garchomp
Ability: Sand Veil
Nature: Timid
Item: Garchompite
252 Attack / 130 Speed / 122 Defense
Swords Dance/Earthquake/Stone Edge/Outrage

Togekiss
Ability: Serene Grace
Nature: Modest
Item: Choice Scarf
252 Sp. Atk / 252 Speed
Air Slash/Tailwind/Metronome/Future Sight

Now, should I replace someone with Mimikyu? Mimikyu would be good for setting up Shuckle easier with trick room, and with a nature that subtracts speed or sp. atk, I know Mimikyu has value, so tell me what you think, if you have any suggested movesets!

I don't think either one will help your team in OU.

This will probably help more than a team rate. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qYztMbBTY0qm4mFy1-66bafgsVQ2gkeErAO3QUghEBY/edit?usp=sharing

I would put u-turn on the ambipom return over last resort, and consider defog on togekiss  for balance (also no scarf because it is utility) or fairy stab for offence (maybe aura sphere for coverage).  I like mimikyu for its stab priority, if it was me I would  drop garchomp or keep him and  go regular with max speed (Rocky helmet with rough skin or life orb)

Sample set
Mimikyu
Ability disguise
Nature jolly
item Spooky plate/ ghostium z
252 atk / 252 spd / 4 def
Shadow claw/ play rough/ shadow sneak/ swords dance

Maybe you could just have both, because you will never know if Mimikyu is stronger agianst some one else or if Togekiss is stronger against someone else.

Answer 1

I mean you already have 2 physical attackers, so I'd border on the side of of Togekiss. However if you do use togekiss, I think a better set would be a t-wave air slash nasty plot roost. I feel like you could use some bulk on your team. Shuckle is not really reliable for a pivot.
I feel like bordering on something more defensive like Ferrothorn or Tornadous for somewhat of a pivot. Other than infernape, kyurem just kills and goes through your team. Also there isn't a real counter to scarf lando, which is everywhere. I propose that you use something like lando itself.
PS
you might wanna run z infernape
ambipom can be switched out to m lopunny
the garchomp that you are using could probably be better with lo
