no idea who for a 6

Answer 1

Okay...they might say I'm freakin' crazy for this...but here it is anyways:

Use a Swoobat but NEVER put it in the D-Care

Swoobat Nature: use one that doesn't change its stats
This is my moveset:

-Areal Ace(STAB)
-Shadow Ball(no psycic type can survive without this)
Fly(I needed this)
-Psycic(STAB)

Answer 2

use your starter pokemon. they can usually have good movesets or stats
for example: my emboar has the moves hammer arm, stone edge, flamethrower, and wild charge

Answer 3

Altaria typically has better Special Defense, so make use of that.
(i.e. Dragon Pulse, Ice Beam..)
Definately use your starter. My Emboar has saved me a bajillion times, and is a great part in my team. Try not to have two of the same moves (your Volcorona). I'd teach it Flamethrower, Bug Buzz, Psychic, and maybe Hurricane? Try covering your weaknesses as well. In example, a Herdier with Aerial Ace, Emboar with Earthquake, etc.

Answer 4

I'd recomened a dark or 100% fire type, or if you can train one high, I personaly recomend Zebstrika. It has high speed and is good with attacks. Teach it discharge and stomp, and it can deal with pretty much any other moves.
Hope this helps!

Answer 5

Or you could use a ground or psycic like a golette or its evolve form
