Hello everyone ! After finally reaching a decent Showdown ladder, I set out to create my own team. The problem is that I am far from being a team building pro, and I would therefore like to have advice to complete this team. I also specify that I have tried to create a team without legendaries. (that's my roleplay side that speaks )

[Team summary]
This team revolves mainly around Bisharp and his classic set of Sword-Dancer. The goal here is simply to place yourself, and sweep once the annoying threats have previously been eliminated.
To accompany him I chose Volcarona :Vocarona: which can not only manage the Steel type that annoys Bish, while being able to take the role of Sweeper, in case the opposing composition would make the work of Bisharp more interesting at the beginning or in the middle of the game.
Since I started with a Bulky Offense idea, I opted for a more defensive Volcarona set. At first I thought about putting Safeguard in place of Psychic, but I was afraid I would run out of response to Toxapex. I'll let you tell me what you think.
To accompany his two la, I decided to integrate Slowking into the team, because he can easily overcome the respective weaknesses of Volcarona and Bisharp, while adding pivot to the team. In addition, his access to Future Sight strongly helps them eliminate some Pokemon, such as Toxapex or Ekaiser for example.
All of this, without forgetting that Volca and Bish can also come on Slowking weaknesses, making them a trio that complement each other wonderfully.
Of course, any good team must have a rock maker. I first thought of Landorus
, but not wanting to be legendary in the team, I finally opted for Garchomp , who I have much more affinity.
And as Roigada was already the team's special tank, I decided to use the Tankchomp set to have a physical equivalent, which gives me a good check for some offensive threats, like Rilaboom or Shifours . In addition, his earthquake is essential to get rid of Heatran, which bothers Bisharp a lot and completely blocks Volcarona.
At this level I find the team rather solid, but I quickly noticed that they lacked a lot of speed control. So I added Dragapult with his Dragon-dancer set. Although a lot of people play this set with Clone and Leftovers, I preferred to go for a few more direct ones with the Life Orb and Sucker-Punch. Its role is to do the most damage to the opposing team, while being able to manage the other Dragon which, once again, greatly hinders my two main Sweepers.
However, I admit that I am really hesitant with the Spec set. I wouldn't be able to say which one is the best given my composition, so like earlier, I'll leave it to you to give your opinion.
As you can see, this team is now missing a member. But who to put? There is the question. I admit that I have no good Pokemon track, except legendary that could fit into my team. So I hope you can help me find the last missing link in this chain.
