I am starting to build a team for doubles inside of pokemon sun and moon in which i would like to avoid using legends and ultra beasts as i want to get it legit and i don't want to go through the game again to get better ones or to have to use a lot fo bottle caps. The team i came up with would be.
Garchomp / Arcanine / Metagross / Alola Ninetales / Snorlax / Hydreigon.
It's the first time i try to make a pvp team so i would really like to have some of your feedback. Thanks

I'd like to know a bit more specific information about the Pokemon you are using. Pokemon like Arcanine require specific builds to be effective. Most notably it needs to be running intimidate. I like Ninetails as anti weather/screens, but anything else isn't going to be too useful I don't think. Hydreigon and Metagross are pretty eh, but can shine if built with the right EVs.

Also, just to clarify, what format is this for? If this is VGC, I don't know if Hydreigon meets the requirements.

So arcanine will be intimidate and anti ice pokemon and the though behind metagross was to bullet punch in case against an alola nitetales which arcanine can't outspeed in order to keep garchomp alive. The ninetales was more for both weather and also the aurora veil to boost the defensive stats of my pokemons. Hydreigon was just a filler pokemon. Wasn't sure what to put in it's spot. The team would be for vgc format.

Metagross has worked for my brother as a bulky Steelium-Z user.

I'd drop hydreigon for a special attacking dark or ghost type like gengar (who is amazing with a focus sash)
