This has been really fun to use, I've gotten several forfeits.

Alakazam @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Nasty Plot
- Expanding Force
- Dazzling Gleam
- Shadow Ball

Works well with my Tapu Lele, as it's able to use incredibly powerful Expanding Forces after I send Lele in. Magic Guard protects from Life Orb damage, and that plus Nasty Plot OHKOs a lot of Pokemon.

Mew @ Red Card
Ability: Synchronize
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Taunt
- Flare Blitz

I absolutely love this Mew. It sets up Spikes and Rocks on the other team, and if a Pokemon tries to set up on it, it's going to get Taunted and sent away by the Red Card. Flare Blitz is so it isn't Taunt bait.

Slowbro @ Leftovers
Ability: Regenerator
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Psyshock
- Surf
- Slack Off

Basic Slowbro set.

Articuno-Galar @ Leftovers
Ability: Competitive
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Freezing Glare
- Shadow Ball
- Calm Mind
- Hurricane

This is a really fun Pokemon to use. After a couple of Calm Minds, it can rip holes through a lot of Pokemon.

Metagross @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Clear Body
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- Meteor Mash
- Zen Headbutt
- Earthquake

Super basic Metagross set, the physical attacker of the team.

Tapu Lele @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Psychic Surge
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Psyshock
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball

Tapu Lele helps against other Scarfed Pokemon a lot. The set should be self-explanatory.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It all looks really good. The only thing I would say is a more solid counter for strong bugs as well as steel types. I would suggest victini:
Victini @ White Herb  
Ability: Victory Star  
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe  
Jolly Nature  
- V-create  
- Fusion Bolt  
- Zen Headbutt  
- U-turn
Thanks for the suggestion! Who should I replace with Victini?
I think slowbro. You run a pretty offensive team, and slowbro just seems like the mon that puts in the least amount of effort. Mew is already bulky, so slowbro isn't really that necessary. If it doesn't work out, I would say just keep the team as it is, but see is any of your mons can get moves that help steel types better. Focus blast on lele wouldn't be too bad of an idea. Also, one thing about mew, I would say put those four attack evs in special attack and give mew psychic over flare blitz, which increases how long it stays on the field.
Alright, thanks for the help, I'll try those suggestions out.
I've tried your suggestions. I don't like Focus Blast on Lele, it's been way too unreliable. Victini deals well with Steel types, but replacing Slowbro means I don't have a counter to Ground Pokemon, particularly Hippowdon and Knock Off Landorus, the second of which gives me extreme problems even with Slowbro.
Nice! Just going to say that I would recommend Calm Mind + Stored power on some of them, because that is really overpowered after a few turns. Another recommendation is adding Latias or Latios, because they are part dragon (which can help with type coverage in a monotype battle) or maybe Delphox/Victini for your bug and steel weakness

Plus, in relation to your last comment, latias or latios have the ability Levitate, which can help with the ground types.
