You have several options:

Okay, lets get to the comparison scene, shall we? Also, keep in mind that I am comparing only the “Good” Ghost-types as it’s what OP asked for. Not all ghost-types are here.

Chandelure

Availability:Mid-game as a Litwick.

Pros:Very good offensively, with a whopping 145 Base SpAAccess to the beloved Will-o-Wisp and Hex comboHas many, many great STAB moves, including the one mentioned above as well as some more, such as Shadow Ball and FlamethrowerGood defenses, both being 90, allowing it to tank hits even super-effective onesDecent Speed of 80 base. That, if trained enough, can outspeed and sweep

Cons:Dusk Stone can be a pain to findLitwick isn’t that useful at first, forcing you to use Exp. Share on itEvolves very late

Drifblim

Availability:Late-game (postgame?)

Pros:A massive ABSOLUTE TANK with a whopping 150 base HPCan get pretty offensive with 95 Base SpAAccess to good STABs like Shadow Ball and Ominous WindAccess to the classic Stockpile-Swallow setAccess to Recover and Toxic, two classics on a Staller

Cons:Mediocre stats overallNot that good to use in a long runThe game is basically “Hyper-offense is my way!”, and while it is certainly a little offensive, its just not that strongOften relies on set-up to sweep

Jellicent

Availability:Early as a Frillish

Cons:Mediocre overall statsNot that good offensively. More of a tank, which isn’t prioritized much in-gameOnly serves as a surf-holder, when there are certainly better surf-holder

Cofagrigus

Availability:Early-Mid-game as Yamask

Cons:Mediocre stats outside of Defenses and SpAThe best as a hazard/Toxic setter, both of which isn’t prioritized much in-game

Golurk

Availability:Late-game as a Golett

Pros:MASSIVE Atk StatGood ability in Iron Fist, making it utilize -Punch moves wellAccess to Fly, making you able to travel around the regionUtilizes Fly well in battle

Cons:Very slowMediocre stats outside of Physical AttackHas a poor ability in Klutz. Good luck finding Iron Fist

So, in conclusion: Out of all the Pokemon provided here, I recommendChandelure,CofagrigusandGolurkthe best.
