depends on how you want the question to be answered

objectively, i don't think there's any singular pokemon that "deserves" to be on every team ever. there's just too much chaos to begin with that once something gains popularity (and disrupts the "balance" of a tier) it'll either get countered through whatever means necessary or banned if people are too lazy.

subjectively, i think all teams should have a shroomish.

The closest pokemon I could say should be on all competitive teams would have to be something versatile that can fill all roles. Along this line I'd say Clefable would work best on all teams in OU, but bad in higher tiers (Ubers, Legs, AG)

Actually, Scarf Ditto is the only real pokemon that could work on every single team in existence (Except little cup for obvious reasons).

None. If everyone uses the same Pokemon, they lose what makes them unique.
Yeah. I mean, the world Championship was boring this year... Not like last year, when the winner had a Pachirisu. A PACHIRISU!!

I love to play with Pokemon I love, not a Pokemo that I use just because it is good and win everything and is the same as every other one... bla bla bla, same moveset...

I love my Exploud, and my Mienshao, my Aggron, Bastiodon, Froslass, Glaceon, Jolteon, Lanturn, Ahhhhh there are so many others!!!

My teams are weaker than some other teams, but they can show that diversity is so beautiful in a Pokemon game. I love when I fight with other "Underrated" Pokemon.
I miiiiight be back?
And why am I not a supporter anymore >.<

These days it's hard to justify a team without Landorus-T or Cresselia.
The Prism League is opening for its second season and looking for new members! 6v6 Multiformat battles on cartridge are the name of the game. We implore you to join if you enjoy competitive battling in any format.

Like Mawa mentioned.
I prefer to use favorites.
Variety makes the battles fun
If everyone had the same Pokemon it would be boring
to slightly answer question in my opinion "which Pokemon do you think deserves to always be part of a regular 6-Pokemon Competitive Team?" none

For me, my typical traditions - I must always have a fox Pokemon in my team.
I ♥ Foxes and Cats!! - art i drew myself
instead of 'Catch 'em All' for me would be "gotta Pet 'Em All"

Entry hazard control isn't always necessary if you and your team can maintain offensive pressure.

Anyway, aside from the obvious entry hazard users I try to fit in a Scald, Lava Plume, and/or status absorber (bonus points if the Scald absorber can beat Keldeo); a U-turn deterrent like Rocky Helmet or Ferrothorn; and a Volt Switch deterrent like a Ground-type. For stall, Mega Sableye is generally a must-have, as is a Heal Bell or Aromatherapy user and a win condition (e.g. setup sweeper like CM Clefable). You're at a massive disadvantage vs other Mega Sableye stall teams if you don't use it. I try to fit in a Pursuit or Shadow Tag user if I can for Defoggers, too.

Closest Pokemon to this for all types of OU teams is probably Clefable. It's the best Fairy-type that isn't a Mega, and can fill a lot of roles. I put it in nearly every stall team I make because it's the only notable Manaphy check, sans Gothitelle.

I'll agree with both of you, coz I also make sure that I always have a Pikachu in my team :)
