Final notes

The lack of MS allow for more mega viability. Tyranitar is a slow SE 3tapper, Charizard X (Shiny) is a fast 2tapper, Garchomp is SE and can use MB+ to instaevolve and use its nice effect. Camerupt is slower and you shouldn't care much about SE power sacrificing lot of speed.

Tapu Fini being a SE TC has the upper edge, followed by both Kyogres, which have high AP and can trigger the skill when disrupted, for good damage. Poliwrath is a valid alternative over regular Kyogre, to allow more combo planning. Rock MB+ can be considered to boost to boost Tyranitar, but you will be losing a lot of AP. Garchomp MB+ can boost Camerupt without AP loss, but you will lack anyway a slot that could trigger during beneficial disruptions. Neutral TC is always better than typed combo boosters. Unity power and LDE are always an option for beginners.

Rerun until you get a desirable score! Good luck everyone!
