So I could really use some help.
I am terrible when it comes to choosing a well rounded, strong competitive team and I really want a good one for Moon.
I will be using this team for Single battles ONLY and will probably make a whole other team for Doubles

I know for sure that I want to use Togekiss and Toxapex
In the past I have also used Venusaur, Lucario, Hydreigon, Zoroark, and Lapras on my competitive team
I used Ribombee, Salazzle and Decidueye in Moon while going through it and loved them all
I also really like Incineroar
However I don't know who exactly to use...
I want Togekiss and Toxapex for sure. Venusaur would be ideal if there isn't a better grass type, and I'd love to use Zoroark but not sure how to use one competitively
I also really love Pokemon that can have tricky strategies that are unique

I definitely want coverage for almost every type or at least most
I will accept any advice or suggestions!!!

Toxapex is one of the best Pokemon introduced in Sun and Moon because of its godly defenses. Note that it works best in balance and stall:
-Scald
-Toxic/Toxic Spikes
-Haze
-Recover
Nature: Bold
EVs: 252 HP/232 Def/24 SDef
Item: Black Sludge/Rocky Helmet
Ability: Regenerator

Togekiss is rather decent; it handily counters Garchomp lacking Stone Edge:
-Nasty Plot
-Air Slash
-Thunder Wave/Heal Bell
-Roost
Nature: Timid
EVs: 248 HP/80 Def/176 Spe
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Serene Grace

Alolan Marowak pairs well with both Toxapex and Togekiss because it easily covers their weakness to Electric with Lightning Rod:
-Flare Blitz
-Shadow Bone
-Bonemerang
-Will-o-Wisp
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 120 HP/252 Atk/136 Spe
Item: Thick Club
Ability: Lightning Rod

Tapu Bulu also works well with Toxapex because the Grassy Terrain it summons gives it extra recovery in addition to Regenerator:
-Wood Hammer
-Horn Leech
-Superpower
-Megahorn/Stone Edge
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
Item: Choice Band

or
-Leech Seed
-Bulk Up/Substitute
-Horn Leech
-Brick Break/Protect
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 124 HP/252 Atk/132 Spe
Item: Leftovers
