New Pokemon X Singles Team?
I'm working on a new singles team, and I am looking for some input, particularly advice on the 6th Pokemon for my team. I have imagined a more defensive lineup, with Dragonite serving as the key Pokemon. This would be a competitive team for online battles.
As a side note, I'm trying to avoid legendaries if at all possible.
1) ESPEON (@Light Clay)
Ability: Magic Bounce
Nature: Timid
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Spd, 4 Def
- Reflect
- Light Screen
- Baton Pass
- Psychic
2) DRAGONITE (@Lum Berry)
Ability: Multiscale
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Fire Punch/Earthquake
- Extreme Speed
3) EXCADRILL (@Choice Band)
Ability: Sand Rush
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
- Iron Head
- Earthquake
- Rapid Spin
- Toxic/Rock Slide
4) CLEFABLE (@Leftovers)
Ability: Magic Guard
Nature: Calm
EVs: 252 HP, 172 Def, 84 SpDef
- Stealth Rock
- Wish
- Protect
- Moonblast
5) SKARMORY (@Rocky Helmet)
Ability: Sturdy
Nature: Impish
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Def, 4 SpDef
- Spikes
- Whirlwind
- Roost
- Brave Bird
6) ???
For the 6th Pokemon, I'm thinking either Greninja, Mega Gyarados, or Chandelure, but I'm open to suggestions. Thanks!
I should clarify that although I'm playing on Pokemon X, I will have access to the move tutors on ORAS. I just won't be able to use any Mega Evolutions that were included in ORAS (i.e., Mega Sableye, Mega Metagross, Mega Altaria, etc).

Explanations:
Clefable:
Item: Pixie Plate - This would boost Moonblast
Ability: Magic Guard
Nature: Sassy (+Special Defense -Speed) - This would boost Special Defense, but not lower Attack as to not hurt Dig or Drain Punch in this move-set. Dig would be coverage Vs. Poison Types and Drain Punch would be coverage for Steel type + give HP back. Minimize would help make sure Clefable doesn't take big hits.
- Moonblast
- Dig
- Drain Punch
- Minimize
