Hello, this is my first post.Really happy to become part of this community!
I would like to have some advice about my current team. I have been trying to build a team for competitive play but before actually building it in ORAS (soon in Sun), I have been using it in Showdown.
I have had some victories but at the same time I have had a ton of lost matches in which i couldn't do too much.
Therefore, I would love to get some help into improving or even building a new team.
I started with this:

Gardevoir @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD

Scizor @ Scizorite
Ability: Technician

EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature

Rotom-Wash @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 250 HP / 252 SpD / 8 Spe
Calm Nature

- Charge Beam
Snorlax @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Immunity
EVs: 156 HP / 252 Def / 100 SpD
Impish Nature
- Stockpile
- Rest
- Crunch
- Belly Drum
What do you think i should do to improve?
Finally, I always want to build my teams around a fire-type Pokemon because that is my favorite type,but I think I haven't been able to balance my team in a way in which my pokemon could actually shine.
Thank You!
