W-Wing

Hard

Two identical bi-value cells joined by a strong link on one of their digits.

Two cells with the same two candidates {X,Y} that do not see each other, plus a unit where X has exactly two candidates, one seen by each bi-value cell. If one bi-value cell is X, its linked cell in the unit is not X, so the other end of the strong link is X, which makes the second bi-value cell Y. Otherwise the first cell is Y. In both cases at least one of them is Y.

Remove Y from every cell that sees both bi-value cells.
