Went camping on Manitoulin Island for the dark skies. Manitoulin did not disappoint.

Tips for improving my team. What works here and what doesn't ? (Revised to add more information)

I am playing on my phone for free and don't have any Pokemon outside this game in the box. I am sharing my box photo as well. I don't have Incineroar that's why I am making do with Arcanine. I am at Ultraball 1 but can't seem to clear it. I am making a lot of mistakes by doubting myself. I was playing on showdown with different teams for the last couple of months and was doing ok.

Staraptor was one of my first mega pokemon picks from a random lineup. I had seen Wolfy's starapter video so I stuck with it. I have also tried building a mega Raichu Y team. But it didn't see a lot of wins.

I like garchomp and it has nice synergy with staraptor (except massive weakness to Ice). Garchomp earthquake works well with two birds in the team.

Added Corviknight for anti-fairy, anti-sinistcha use. It's also is good switch-in for taking hits. Also second tailwind setter.

I tried running two megas by replacing Corviknight with Metagross but I started losing more. So I went back to team I was comfortable with.

Arcanine has been my goat for a lot of games with intimidate and dark coverage. This is my main anti-ice attack and anti-fire defense. But sadly once I get an Incineroar I will replace it with Incin.

Whimsicott does Whimsicott things. Charm for staraptor and also works against ubiquitous physical attackers.

Sinistcha was added for mega swampert and general support.

Apologies if it's hard to read. English is not my first language.
