Kirby Phelps (PK)

EarthBound anyone?
Which Psychic type do you think would be better to go with Espurr or Solosis? I'm having trouble deciding on the two. And is Honedge any good? I think it's a pretty cool Pokemon, but not sure how useful it'll be. I'm not sure how much I need a ghost type on my team and as for Steel, Lucario's kinda got that covered.

I have beaten the Pokemon League. My team?
Greninja
Charizard
Gogoat
Heliolisk
Lucario
Gengar

I'm thinking of restarting, but I don't know what my team should be. I don't know about my starter either. Fennekin and Chespin are cool, but Froakie is awesome. But I already used him. Can someone tell me what the best starter is stat wise? Kind of how Samurott was the best in Unova.

So with the drop of X and Y i decided to get back into pokemon. Haven't played since yellow so safe to say its been a long time. Was looking to see if i could get some help with a post game team for online battles and such. I don't mind going out and catching anything new and grinding it up. just looking for a solid team because like i said i haven't played a pokemon game in over 10 years feeling kind of lost in these new gens. Current team used to beat Ellie four.

You need to give your pokemon moves of different types. All water moves on Greninjq is pretty bac. I didnt choose him, so i have no suggestions. Blaziken needs to lose ember.

I just beat the Elite Four and my current team is as follows:

Malamar Lv.62
Bashful - Suction Cups - Twisted Spoon

Superpower

Goodra Lv.67
Brave - Sap Sipper - Dragon Fang

Outrage
Aqua Tail
Ice Beam
Flamethrower

Florges Lv.69

Does anyone have any suggestions for my abilities, items or even the pokémon themselves? (IVs and Nature's are not important for me right now).

I am kind of unhappy with Heliolisk and Malamar, they seem to perform badly. However I only want to use Kalos pokémon and ofc no legendaries. I also have a Talonflame (Lv.59) and Noibat (Lv.58) but I'm not sure about them (3 dragon types is a lot).

Also my last question is that I've never used EVs and I want to know how to choose which one to max for each pokémon, I have some reset bags in super training so that I can start over.

All help is appreciated.

Hello new here, wondering if I could get some opinions on my future team. Not sure what roles or IVS to shoot for so opinions on that would be great.
Here it is (note golurk is posted twice bc not sure to keep it or not):
Golurk (stealth rock/physical sweeper) or Carbink (stealth rock/ rapid spin if possible. This is to help with ice pokes) or Dragalge (two of these pokemon need to be chosen)
Dedenne (lead)
Kelfkie (status or special sweeper)
Noivern (physical sweeper?)
Goodra
so any help would be great! thanks!
