Scarf Mienfoo and NP Missy work extremely well together. Mienfoo with a scarf on outspeeds everything from Zeb and below,punching kicking holes into the enemy team eliminating faster mons that stop Missy from sweeping. Misdreavus loves to have these faster pokemon out of the way so she can set up a NP and win. Misdreavus also handles pokemon that give Mienfoo trouble such as other ghost types that prevent Mienfoo from just clicking HJK, Tangela, and Vullaby letting Mienfoo effectively clean late game. Why is Mienfoo chosen over Monferno when Ferno has better coverage and speed? Because Mienfoo's HJK is more powerful than any of Monferno's moves even as adamant. This nets us important KOs that Monferno just can't get for us.

Mienfoo's ev spread can be changed to 252 speed, but as of now no one is using Scarf Mienfoo so you dont need to max speed to tie with them and having that extra speed doesnt do anything since this is already enough to outspeed Zeb. Stone Edge is slashed after Drain Punch because it ohkos things like Swanna, but I tend to go with DP even though it is much weaker than HJK, it lets you decrease the risk of using a fighting move if the opponent has a ghost. Missy is the regular NP set, but I have T-Bolt before the slash because it hits Vullaby and Mienfoo deals with whatever you want to hit with HP Fighting. HP Fighting still isnt a useless slot though as it lets Missy beat Pawn 1v1.
