Best Mega Pokémon for Trick Room & VGC Strategies

So we are searching for 2 megas, at least one should be used in trick room, the other doesn't have to be but if we can make it fun it would be great. Don't suggest too much meta slop as I want to win with my favorites. Preferably one special and one physical attacker or if we go defensive wall mega, suggest the Rotom move set for more damage.

Mega Blaziken Team Building Guide | Pokémon Champions

good evening! I'm looking to revamp my mega blaziken team, but as I'm very new to competitive (I built the team with help from very kind people from other discords) I'm unsure what to do

to help, here's the team and the spreads

as a preliminary move, I've replaced chomp and sneasler with basc and gambit, but I haven't given them sets yet and I'm open to ideas

(also make sure to ping me if you reply)

Mega Banette VGC Team Building Guide | Pokémon Champions

I wanted to build a team around mega banette since it's my favorite mega so I will not remove it. I went for tailroom. The goal here is to make banette a mix of a disruptive support and also a sweeper under either trick room or tailwind depending on the matchup.

Farigiraf was the first thing I thought of when thinking trick room because it's just so useful with armor tail. There isn't much thought behind it so I don't know if it can have good synergy with banette.

I added talonflame as the tailwind setter because of gale wings

Mega mawile would be here as a secondary mega, that way I won't give up banette as my only mega slot.

I don't know what to change or add next, I suffer alot from common dark types like incineroar or farigiraf, which mega banette literally cannot hit in any way.
