need help picking a 6th

I have already cleared the main game, and am basically just building my team for the elite 4 round 2 and PWT etc. Cant do competitive until I get a 3ds because of a router.
Anyway, I've done some ev training, but as far as i know Lapras's Sp Def is the only one maxed, theirs a few others that are very close though. I would appreciate suggestions for my 6th.
(also not posting items because right now im just rotating lucky egg and power items, also movesets are not necessarily final)

For Espeon, replace Future Sight with Sunny Day to give morning sun a boost, it'll help Chandelure too.
Teach Lapras Psychic, that moveset has helped me soo much.
Kingdra, Ice Beam or Flash Cannon.
Chandelure, If you have hex and Will o Wisp, Shadow Ball is a waste of space, give it Enegy ball.
Umbreon is hard to give a great moveset, either Iron Tail, Double Team, Spite, or Psychic, whichever approach you'd like to take.
For your last, I'd suggest Either Dragonite, Lucario, or Metagross, or possibly Hydriegon if you have it with a physical nature. Too many special attakcers.

Dragonite:
DDance
Outrage
Aqua Tail
Stone Edge

Lucario:
Close Combat
Ice Punch
Rock Slide
Shadow Claw

Metagross:
Hammer Arm
Meteor Mash
Zen Headbutt
Thunderpunch

Hydriegon Physical
Fly
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Outrage or Dragon Rush
Ill leave you towards your decision

Grass knot or sunny day if you're keen on running morning sun.

I changed up your moves, some were quite bad, some were alright. You did have some that contradicted each other, such as Espeon and Umbreon. You need to be quite offensive in PWT, or that's how I've been doing it and fairing well. Kingdra was a disaster, you have DD and no physical moves, which meant there was no point. Toxic seems to be running through your team when I did it, it could always be swapped out for something else. I also bolded the 3 best choices at the end.
Latios would need to be modest or timid to do well really, it needs to be powerful.
Volcarona is a really good one that I enjoy using and is also another special attacker.
Dragonite would also be a good DDer, but can do supportive roles or special attacking roles. It's your choice on these 3.

I tried to minimise breeding, as I don't know if you're willing to do it. I think the only one is Chandelure with hidden power fighting.



P.S Carlos, don't double post. You can click edit post at the bottom of the post.

I've always found that Latios with soul dew can really help as a double type cover and powerhouse. Also, he passes the no legendaries rule in the PWT.

This is the problem. He has too many special attackers, he'd be walled easily. I can't remember but isn't it 3 pokes only in PWT? A ratio of 2:1 on either attacking side would be good, but having 5 special attackers on his team is stupid.

Hell, is soul dew in this game? I know it wasn't in Black or White.
