Just hatched a shiny Torkoal but he's only 3/6 with pretty good in both defences. Could I still use him on a team?
Can this Torkoal be VGC viable?

It depends on the the desired IVs and the EV spread you provide for the Torkoal. Typically, most if not all Torkoal sets are Quiet Nature with 0 speed IV to ensure they are always "faster" (or slower) than 0 IV Gigalith in Trick Room, another popular weather user. In my opinion, technically speaking its better to have a quiet nature Torkoal in the end for comp.

If you have a Quiet nature, the ideal one for VGC, you can probably Hyper Train your Torkoal to make it have the stats of a 6IV Torkoal. But if you don't have a Quiet nature, it will not be optimal to use in VGC as its main niche is Trick Room.

Basically you are gunning for a low speed IV of 0 or 1 if you want to speed tie with minimum speed Torkoal (with Quiet and 0 or 1 IV ). You can hyper train HP, Def, Sp Def, and Special Attack, but leave out Attack, if in case you want to reduce foul play/confusion damage, or speed which will take awhile to breed or obtain one. If you don't plan to use Torkoal with Quiet and 0 speed IV, you can outspeed opposing torkoals, but I cannot guarantee that you can outpseed other Trick Room threats like Gigalith, Araquanid, or Snorlax if they have a speed stat in such a fashion.
