Definitely Pyroar.
What's the rest of the team
Greninja, Heliolisk, Hawlucha, Sableye, and Aerodactyl
What about Kanto starter? Cause mega charizard either one is better
No Kanto starter to me they suck

Best answer

Pyroar
STAB attacks super effective against Viola, Ramos, Wulfric, Wikstrom, and part of Diantha's team
Weak to the main STABs of Viola's Surskit, Grant, Korrina, Siebold, and part of Diantha's team
Really solid Special Attack and Speed
Learns moves like Flamethrower and Dark Pulse
Fairly shallow special movepool
Okay defenses
Evolves somewhat late
Overlaps the Normal type with Heliolisk

Flareon
STAB attacks super effective against Viola, Ramos, Wulfric, Wikstrom, and part of Diantha's team
Weak to the main STABs of Viola's Surskit, Grant, Siebold, and part of Diantha's team
Brilliant Attack
Pretty good Special Attack and Special Defense
Learns nice moves like Quick Attack, Return, Strength, and Flare Blitz
Doesn't overlap types with any other team members
Godawful movepool
Middling Speed
Pretty bad HP and Defense

They both work in-game. However, I would choose Pyroar. It can be obtained earlier, has a slightly better movepool, and is faster than Flareon. Here's a potential set:

Pyroar @ Silk Scarf / Charcoal
Ability: doesn't matter
- Flamethrower
- Dark Pulse
- Hyper Voice
- filler

Hope I helped!

Hmm what to make of the overlapping Normal type though?
Lol should I replace Heliolisk with another Pokémon? Which one?
You've got a fighting immunity and two flying types, so I wouldn't think it's a big deal. Especially in an in-game playthrough, you should just pick whichever you like best!
Yes but how to decide though
That is what my question
*that is what my question is
Oh just realized that I have two flying types
