/!\ IMPORTANT REMINDER /!\
The command does NOT cover moves legality. You have to make sure that the Pokemon and items (No berserk gene here!) you are using exist in National Dex through the gen9 natdex builder, and that its combination of moves is legal on it. The rest is covered by the command. Bringing an illegal set will count as an automatic loss.
To bring a Mega Evolution, just give a mega stone to a regular Pokemon.
