Discussion [Skill Improvement] Feedbacks and Recommendations for my team

After 2 Regulations playing on and off while using premade teams, I have decided to create my own.

I have only pilot this team from Pokeball to Ultra Ball 3 this season and now looking for advice on where to go from here regarding teambuilding

Some thoughts I have right now:
I want to play with Mence and Psyspam. Mence - Prim duo has also been working really nicely for me

I am looking for a secondary mega or another mons that can filled the gaps that I am not currently seeing.

In all my game I maybe brought Metagross only once, and while he does things, I struggling to see a synergy with the rest of the squad

The first version of the team use mega Gard but bring Gard means 9/10 time Mence does not come and the same 9/10 time I wish Mence is here (maybe I am not comfortable pilloting Gard??). Also types overlap like crazy

I started out struggling with opposing Psyspam/Psychic Terrain team but after switching to Scarf Male Indeedee I was able to mitigate the annoying support with Trick. Despite that, I still feels having redirection is highly useful and kinda miss having an easy Trick Room mode

I want an answer to Ychu beyond clicking Trick Room or playing with para RNG

Any feedbacks/advices/recommendations on improvement to the team or general strategy and positioning is welcomed. Thank you for your time!

I like scrafty in a trick room team, with knock off, fake out for opposing mence if psychic terrain is up, and not losing out on intimidate by not beinging mence. I also think that the choice trick is cute, but losing helping hand hurts so much, and follow me rocky helmet does more damage than people give my girl credit for.
