Which Pokemon meets these criteria?
I want a Pokemon that can cover Dragon and Water types with good speed and good defense and sp defense and decent attack.If there is no Pokemon that meet these criteria,then just give me a Pokemon with good speed that can cover Garchomp as I am building a team around it.
EDIT: I meant someone that can KILL water and dragon types.And by covering Garchomp,I mean someone who can help cover garchomp’s weaknesses,not someone that can kill Garchomp.I’m sorry if my question was confusing and for any inconvenience this caused.

Bisharp, Scizor, Genesect, AegislashAll four of those are good offensive Pokemon, with the ability to deal with Fairy and Ice types with their STAB and also resist Dragon type attacks (Those are Chomp’s 3 main weaknesses).>Steel-types such as Scizor, Genesect, Bisharp, and Aegislash are excellent partners, as all 4 have nearly perfect defensive synergy with Garchomp, can defeat the Fairy-, Dragon-, and Ice-types that give Garchomp trouble, and are able to defeat Cresselia with their secondary STAB moves. Bisharp stands out as a partner, as it deters Pokemon with the Intimidate ability from switching in with its own ability, Defiant. In return, Garchomp is able to defeat the Fire-type Pokemon that give these Steel-types trouble.
Thundurus, Togekiss, Zapdos, CresseliaAll of those guys are immune to Earthquake - also, they provide valuable Speed control in the form of Thunder Wave and Icy Wind>Good partners that can provide Garchomp with speed control include Togekiss, Zapdos, Cresselia, and Thundurus, as many of these Pokemon are immune to Garchomp’s Earthquake- Flying-types and Pokemon with the ability Levitate are great partners in general, as they are immune to Garchomp’s Earthquake, allowing Garchomp to freely use the move without any drawbacks
Smogon Dex (Doubles) o3o
EDIT: Ok, so you said you want a Pokemon that can be good against both Water and Dragon Type Pokemon. The Water type is there because most of them carry Ice beam. In Defensive strategy I would suggest Klefki or Azumaril. You are immune to the Dragon Type Moves and Ice Type moves wont be very effective on you. If you are just looking for fast Dragon type to one hit KO another Dragon Type theres Noivern. But one hit with an Ice Beam and hes done for. So a fast Electric Type Pokemon could stop that. So basically to answer your question literally. The only Pokemon I could think of that could be super effective against both Water and Dragon type is Dedenne, His speed is somewhat above average around the same base stat speed as a Flygon or a Riachu. If hes going to be good against Dragon Types he needs the move Play Rough and obviously he can do some damage against the Water Type Pokemon. Hope this is better. These might be Pokemon you would least expect to ever use haha but I think it answers the question without getting into any of the Uber tier Pokemon
Heatran is an excellent Pokemon to cover Garchomp. It resists fairy, ice and and dragon and only takes 1/4 damage from the first 2. It also absorbs and Wil-o-wisps that head Garchomp’s way. I’m fond of Tormen-tran myself. Here’s the set I use:
Heatran @ LeftoversAbility: Flash FireEVs: 244 HP, 132 Def, 132 SpDNature: Calm (+SpD, -Atk)- Torment- Substitute- Protect- Lava Plume
You can use that EV spread on a more offensive Heatran just to keep the bulk and Air Balloon is pretty standard too but he cover’s Garchomp’s weaknesses perfectly.
As for a Pokemon to cover water and dragon moves, Ferroseed works well as it resists both. It has good defenses and decent attack as well. Here’s my favorite set:
Ferrothorn @ Rocky HelmetAbility: Iron BarbsEVs: 252 HP, 56 Def, 200 SpDNature: Relaxed (+Def, -Spe)- Leech Seed- Spikes- Power Whip- Thunder Wave
Once again the EVs are set up for maximum bulk. I hope that helps!!
I guess you could use Kingdra.
Kingdra @ Scope LensAbility: SniperEVs: 12 HP/252+ SpAtk/244 SpeedMoves:-Focus Energy-Draco Meteor-Surf-Hidden Power Fire
