Recently i've acquired Sidisi, Brood Tyrant and Nekusar, the Mindrazer.I was going to build a deck for each of them but, a friend of mine challenged me with build a deck with both.And thats why im here.

For Nekusar, is kinda easy to build, just use things like Fate Unraveler and Underworld Dreams and i'll be good to go, but, the thing is that I don't know what to do with Sidisi cause I never played with tokens,and I don't know how im going Synergyse both.

Until know i only founded Hedron Crab that could potentially help me out with my deck

If theres any cards that could help me or combos, pls leave them in the comments.

Thanks for your timem, and pls have great day :D

There's always the Duskmantle Guildmage/Mindcrank combo. Mindcrank is good with Nekusar :) Stitcher Geralf, Consuming Aberration, Lazav, Dimir Mastermind and Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker are good standalone mill cards but there isn't much synergy with Nekusar. Then again, there's not much synergy between the two generals anyway

Well, first and foremost you have to figure out whether you want to use any white cards. In advance I can tell you this would purely be for pillow fort or wrath effects, of which both exist within all other colors, just maybe not in so simple a manner.

Secondly, you'll need to understand that Sidisi is not a token commander. She's a self mill. To think of it like this, if you had both Nekusar and Sidisi on the field, and you attack with Sidisi every turn, then every turn you're digging 5 cards deep into your library (though 3 are in the grave).

Only reanimator and combo players want to put themselves in such a scenario, thus I suggest going a sort of chaotic mix of both. Play cards from each color that blockade your opponent from interfering with you via attacks or spells, and then using a mixture of self mill, grave recursion, and extra draws, you just dig for combo wins like decking out with Laboratory Maniac or getting Biovisionary + Rite of Replication to go off in one turn.

I would recommend going an enchantment synergy if you decide to use white and be a five color deck, but if you go for "Yidris colors", then I suggest taking some form of the partner commanders over Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder himself.

Btw, a backup plan/"front" for the deck would be using cards like Hedron Crab to mill others out and be using them to mill others once in a while to see what they have to hit with cards like Grave Upheaval. And this would likely be true even if you were 5 colors.
