Not really; it's healing mid-battle that I can't really do. It takes three heapings of luck to do so: - Defeat Yumeko in the first opportunity (AdMokou must hit with Flare Blitz and Yumeko must not activate Quick Claw)
- Stop ALilyBlack from sweeping everyone (Yumemi sacrifice, but then ARemilia must survive a Liechi'd Giga Impact; quite the tall order)
- Defeat DAlice without getting Salac swept (Without Yumemi brute force and priority are necessary)
They can't take a hit to save their lives, plus this insane teamchanging of mine is why I have 95 hours in this game. No one except Sendai can really tank or evade, and I'm not changing the ancestor's moveset. Competitive thinking?? I could say something incredibly harsh about this and its developer, but I won't.

I'm not asking you to Toxic stall while spamming healing items, and I'm not asking you to just endlessly grind to a needlessly high level just to fight things with 1530 BST. Honestly? I don't understand your problem.
I present a set of boss fights that asks the player to cover their weaknesses while being able to cover a single primary type that covers its own weakness, along with a final boss that uses a multi-typed team so that it can actually be a boss fight. You're supposed to feel accomplished when you defeat them, you're supposed to feel like you achieved victory over a difficult opponent.
You asked for advice, and you received very solid advice from people who know what they're talking about. Your replies to this actual, legitimate, thought-out advice have all boiled down to "that's too hard, I don't want to play that way, I don't want to put forth effort to beat this game."
All in all, I'm offended. I'm absolutely furious that you could discount anything and everything being told to you just because a game that is meant to be challenging doesn't conform to your standards of difficulty. You were going to cheat to obtain what you called a "broken" team because you were "tired of this game" and how "stupid" it was.
All in all, as much as I loathe saying this, your problem is essentially that you are bad, and you need to get good or stop complaining.
How DARE an endgame boss fight be challenging. How DARE the developer make me struggle!
Disgusting. Go play Snakewood or something and direct your complaints somewhere that they're deserved.

AdMokou has a 72% chance to connect with Flare Blitz onto Yumeko before Yumeko hits with Heart Break, which isn't that long of a shot at all. It's actually slightly better than that, since Heart Break is piss-weak and can be survived by an comparable level AdMokou with even nominal bulk investment. Furthermore if it fails, you have Tech Byakuren to make the roll again.
(edit: he's also the first trainer, if you get RNG screwed by him you're not exactly losing a ton of progress)
I don't know your gameplan well enough to see what you're getting at with the other two, but Dark Alice looks like an easy job for Signal Beam Yumemi w/Blazer. Failing that, Sendai can tech Fake Out if you're really desperate; it's the ace, it's something you should be handling carefully.
Toxic doesn't have to go on the bulky member of your party; the AI's lack of Full Restores means you can just apply it once and let everyone else chip away. After a point the AI will lock itself into Recover trying to deal with Toxic's increasing damage and die even if your party does a bad job of face-tanking. And, if you're not having issues with HKeine, feel free to forego Toxic; it just seemed to me like something that might be a rough spot for your team. (If it is and you still don't want to use Toxic, there are Choice Bands on the wild Chibi Flandre in one of the VR basements; stealing one of those is really annoying though)
I don't really get what the issue with "competitive thinking" is? Yes, it's a game where you're expected to think to win. That's usually the case with non-twitch games.

Yumemi has to bite it in order for me to have any chance at defeating ALilyBlack; else DAlice would be easy, yes.
Sacrifice mons to gain momentum, pinch berries, there's a lot of stuff that feels like it belongs in competitive.
You forgot the part where she has Killing Bite and somehow makes a mess out of even AdMokou.

0+ Atk Lv65 Yumeko Killing Bite vs. 0 HP / 0- Def Lv63 AdMokou: 107-127 (61.84 - 73.41%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
?????????????????????
If ALB is a problem then deal with it in a way that doesn't involve sacrificing your win condition. If Giga Impact is impossible to manage run Detect on something that baits it; the move functions like High Jump Kick in that it inflicts recoil on missing. Alternatively, figure out who is least useful and slot a Youki onto your team; he forces Giga Impact recoil just by switching into it and threatens most of Sidney's team, as well as some of the things after Sidney that seem likely to bully your team.
Don't worry about the things you're doing being considered "too competitive" as basically anything in this game is competitive in some sense. Switching smartly, using set-up moves, using priority, using powerful moves to break walls, building a team with good synergy out of strong mons...you've been doing all of this already, haven't you? These are basic aspects to competitive Pokemon, and it shouldn't be an issue that doing them helps you in-game as well. Pinch berries are just another obstacle; figure out how to beat what's in front of you, don't worry about what it's doing there. (For what it's worth you can get some yourself by robbing certain wilds, but you'll probably do just fine without.)

Must have been an unlucky crit >_>
Gonna look over it again tomorrow; I'm frighteningly unstable, as you could tell by one of my responses above.
