So, I am currently making a team of 6 Pseudo Legendary Pokémon (excluding Goodra), and I am having trouble deciding which one should take up my mega slot. Besides Salamence, who should I use? Tyranitar, Metagross, or Garchomp?

If you're using Salamence I think Garchomp may be a bad idea. You'll have two pokemon that are 4x weak to ice. I'm not sure though since I've seen people force Garchomp through ice punches and hp ices. I think you should try all the scenarios on showdown and see which you're most comfortable with.

Should I replace Salamence with Goodra? Or Garchomp? I'm thinking Garchomp because he can't DD?

I think it can be p good with AV. It's already a really good defensive tank, so AV would make it an even better all around. It's only issue then would be speed which can be taken care of using agility. You can have adamant then too.

Goodra can't really hurt anyone though

I'm thinking of having Tyranitar be my mega. Do either you have any experience with Tyranitar? Also, how is this Garchomp set?

I've used Tyranitar to some success. I use some variation of stone edge/eq/crunch/ddance. Main thing you gotta worry about fighting pokemon. So maybe add some ghosts to your team.

I dunno, back when I used it it didn't really hurt anything. Then again I only invested in bulk.

That's probably why
150 base sp def + assault vest is plenty of bulk
Put evs into health and spa that way it can tank hits and dish back some decent damage it's pretty good imo
