I like M-Venusaur + Gengar + Garchomp core, we can start from here.

I would put a Lum Berry on Garchomp as Life Orb damage boost doesn't get any additional KO (maybe on 252 HP / 4 Def CharY but it's not the most popular set)

I don't like an offensive set on Arcanine but i guess it can work as you need something to hit M-Kang as hard as possible without adding a Fighting type pokemon (which would add a third Psychic weakness, not good at all)

Arcanine @ Life Orb
Ability: Intimidate
Level: 50
EVs: 28 HP / 252 Atk / 228 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Close Combat
- Flare Blitz
- Extreme Speed
- Protect

#Outspeeds -1 Speed Landorus-T (after Icy Wind for example) by one point.

252+ Atk Life Orb Arcanine Close Combat vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Mega Kangaskhan: 177-208 (97.7 - 114.9%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO

It's the best we can have without a Choice Band if you want to use this set. If you want a support Rocky Helmet set which destroys any physical attacker in general, here it is:

Arcanine @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Intimidate
Level: 50
EVs: 252 HP / 196 Def / 60 Spe
Bold Nature
- Flamethrower
- Will-O-Wisp
- Snarl
- Morning Sun

#Outspeeds Adamant Bisharp by one point

Suicune can complete the Grass+Fire+Water core which is great at the moment. It offers Snarl and Tailwind support too and it deals with Landorus-T which puts pressure on Arcanine. However if you use Suicune, which we are going to use as support mon with a Sitrus Berry, there's no space for Clefable (it can redirect a Brave Bird or a Psychic but that's all.. it fits better as support for other megas like M-Kang, redirecting a Fighting type move for example)

Suicune @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Pressure
Level: 50
EVs: 252 HP / 116 Def / 100 SpA / 20 SpD / 20 Spe
Bold Nature
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- Snarl / Protect (use Protect if you use the Rocky Helmet Arcanine set)
- Tailwind

#100% chance to OHKO 4 HP Landorus-T with Ice Beam
#Jolly M-Kang Double-Edge is a 3HKO on this Suicune
#Outspeeds  Adamant Scarf Landorus-T under Tailwind

For the last slot you can use Bisharp to scare Landorus-T away.

Bisharp @ Life Orb
Ability: Defiant
Level: 50
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Iron Head
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
- Protect

If you have any other idea please tell me :D
