This guide will give you a baseline on making winning Pokemon Teams.Note there are three sections, a single, double, and free battle section. Since ubers are illegal, I will only include them in the free battle section.
Now lets review the basics. First you decide what pokemon you want in your team. Is it a sweeper? a wall? After you decide, think about what pokemon to support it with. An example is probably BlissSkar. This combo has Synergy since they have the stats to balance eachother out. Skar has defence while Bliss has HP and special defense. Skars only weaknesses are elec and fire, so Bliss can back it up with a light screen. Just watch out for brick breakers. They can break your wall and make Skar a big targets to a boltbeam pokemon.
So now you have the idea of supporting. The next thing you do is raise EV's. I will not explain them. If you want to know what they are, read the EV training guide. Now, getting back to my example, Blissey has weak defense, meaning you should train 252 Ev's for it. This shoud also be use with an impish or bold nature since they raise defense and lower atk/special atk. Now, you probably are thinking '' Why lower attack trait?'' The answer to that is: they won't be attacking. Bliss attack is seismic toss so it wont be weakened. Now enough of the review, lets make a team!
