I have been really enjoying using Alolan Ninetales with its supportive build in a variety of teams . Goodra has always been dependent on grim screens but ninetales is such a big upgrade to grimmsnarl that i feel that this team could work out really good.

I am confident in this core but i am not sure what else i want. Tornadus Urshifu/Drago lead can just be countered by ninetales encore + shelter and Trick room is an easy matchup . I am always leading with shelter + encore/aurora veil right now except against amoongus/toxapeck/chien pao.
The only bad matchups i can see are Chien Pao , Amoongus with spore , stuff like toxapeck , maybe gholdengo and just maybe heatran. I need help figuring out what mons will work good in the team against these matchups specially chien pao and amoongus/toxapeck and if so in what basis should i ev train them ? I also feel like life dew on Goodra is somewhat replaceable, goodra has a good sp atk and we can maybe put a sp atk move on that slot with a bold nature instead as heavy slam ohkos fluttermane anyways and body press doesnt need atk.
I have been thinking of Sinistcha but most matchups dont allow me bringing it just for hospitality and Iron Hands is maybe good against tornadus/urshifu teams. Please help .
