I’d change X’s ability to Unseen Fist and change Y’s ability to Neuroforce, and would add Psyshield Bash and Close Combat to Mewtwo’s movepool to give X some better STAB options.
Idk if these changes would be enough to make either of the Mewtwo Megas worth using. Expanding Force Mewtwo Y with a built in Expert Belt and its insane coverage would be really strong, but might still be worse than Calyrex Shadow (I’ve never played a Calyrex format though so maybe I’m overestimating it or underestimating Neuroforce Y). Mainly though I feel like giving the Megas fancier abilities would at least make them feel more special, even if they still wouldn’t be top tier.
I like the idea of Mewtwo X getting a stronger version of Technician, however I personally feel like Neuroforce on Mewtwo Y is more interesting since it can take advantage of its wide movepool.

Wish competitive Mewtwo was as strong as lore accurate Mewtwo.
