I am currently looking at my favorite Pokemon, Grumpig for the VGC format.

Yeah, I see a small problem here named Bisharp.
252+ Atk Bisharp Sucker Punch vs. 182 HP / 0 Def Grumpig: 206-246 (115.7 - 138.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252+ Atk Bisharp Night Slash vs. 182 HP / 0 Def Grumpig: 182-216 (102.2 - 121.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Not only is Bisharp faster and able to OHKO, Grumpig can do almost nothing to it even if you attack it on a switch-in. Focus Blast does OHKO Bisharp, but its accuracy is really unreliable.
You might also run into some other problems.
+1 252 Atk Aerilate Mega Salamence Return vs. 182 HP / 0 Def Grumpig: 261-307 (146.6 - 172.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO
72 SpA Grumpig Focus Blast vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Mega Metagross: 41-49 (26.4 - 31.6%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
72 SpA Grumpig Hidden Power Fire vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Mega Metagross: 42-50 (27 - 32.2%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
Grumpig is too slow, and these Pokemon can wall it. That being said, if you allocate your EV's differently, you may find a set that works. Just keep trying!
