    Hoho, as always, I'll be making one of this thread again!
    I am currently just done with my second gym.
    I'll be keeping them in spoiler tag in case people needs to avoid spoilers!

    Current team after beating the first gym:

    Drizzile
    Corvisquire
    Dottler
    Thievul
    Eldegoss
    Carkol

    Drizzile, Corvisquire, and Carkol are permanent. The others less so.
     
    Update!

    Just made it past the first gym. It's Drizzile, Thievul, Sizzlipede (took awhile thanks to that !% encounter rate), and Applin. I know I want Toxel, but the last spot I'm still undecided on.

    Oh, you can 100% find one Sizzlipede in the challenge for the Fire gym so I left mine to that!
    Where did you get the Applin?

    I've made the conscious decision to rotate Pokémon in and out according to the gyms (playing Sword) while I wait for the opportunity to use the daycare to breed for my optimal team. Luckily, my Scorbunny came out Jolly with 31 IVs in Attack, so I didn't need to reset for him at all. Post Milo's gym, my team currently looks like this:

    - Lv. 22 Raboot
    - Lv. 20 Stunky
    - Lv. 19 Vanillite
    - Lv. 21 Yamper
    - Lv. 22 Corvisquire
    - Lv. 19 Zigzagoon
     
    Drizzle
    Vulpix
    Meowth
    Eevee
    Hoothoot
    Rookidee
     
    I'm not quite at the town with the first gym yet, and right now it's Drizzile and Corvisquire. With a bunch of other stuff in the remaining slots but I'm probably not gonna keep most of them long-term. Want to eventually get Galarian Ponyta and Snom on the team, but we'll see when those come along. Nevermind that I have no idea what I want in the last 2 spots.
     
    Right now I have Cinderace, Toxtricity, Eldegoss, Clefairy, Drednaw, and Linoone.
     
    Right now I have Drilbur, Arrokuda, Corvisquire, Thwackey, Scraggy and Dottler. Eventually I plan on replacing Corvi, Scraggy and Dottler with Toxtricity and Impidimp. Not sure what I want my third to be yet. Maybe I'll keep Scraggy.
     
    Done with the post game, though I've not attempted the rematch in the Challenge Cup, and here is my final team for Sword:
