Q-1 I have one query if there is new Scrum team formed and dev team has question on co-ordination side then what should sm do? He should teach PO to work with lead developer to order pb such that less overlap and dependency happens or SM should teach dev team that it is their responsibilities to co-ordinate and come up with integrated increment?

Q-2 Another query if dev team wants to skip any event like daily scrum on regular basis means reducing the frequency then does it affect sprint plan and progress on resolving impediments.

Q-1:
What kind of coordination are you talking about? With other scrum teams working on the same PB?
If that's the case, then look into scaling scrum across multiple teams. Nexus is one such framework which prescribes forming a Nexus scrum team which is responsible for identifying dependencies earlier and plan for it across the teams.


Q-2
Scrum events are not optional. Daily scrum gives the team the ability to track progress of their work toward sprint goal. Daily scrum generally gives the team to uncover impediments, new discoveries etc.
I guess you could skip it, but it's not Scrum anymore.
