How do we fix him? He gets countered by so many types, bug, fighting, fairy, dragon, ice. Hydreigon can't even compete in this VGC meta. How do we save him?

He has 6 resistances and 2 immunities plus massive coverage and moderate bulk. Tyranitar has a lot of success despite more weaknesses to even more common types. He just needs a buffing move like Nasty Plot or, better yet, a special version of Dragon Dance.

I dunno I have pretty good experience with mine. Flash Cannon deals with Ice and Fairy types, Dragons are trumped by Dragons. U-Turn the fuck out when Bug or Fighting show up, I guess. I think it learns U-Turn.

Hydreigon is perfectly fine. Don't fall for the "BL/UU means it's shit" meme.

But how does hydreigon deal with faster mons that are very common, such as tapu koko and garchomp. Hydreigons speed really hinders it

You switch out and let its teammates handle those mons.

Hydreigon is actually fairly good in the current OU meta. Not amazing, but better than people might think with the whole 'omg weak to fairys' thing.

Dark Pulse is extremely spammable, and can clean lategame. Specs, Scarf, Life Orb Roost + 3 attacks, it's got options.

Switch to a counter? That's why you have 5 other Pokemon.

Also, Hydreigon is fine. He still has a unique offensive typing and a good set of resistances+bulk that makes him an easy fit in many doubles teams. He's only not used in VGC now because Deino isnt in the Alola dex. He was everywhere in 2014 season and saw a fair bit of use in 2015 season.

Scarf Hydra is a common set. It can even switch into Chomp's and Koko's Ground/Electric STAB.

That can be the mega.
It can have a copy of parental bonds that relates to it attacking with each head.

More speed and Quiver Dance. Hydreigon packs so much power that all it needs is some extra speed to deal with it's issues.

Mega Evolution with Steelworker. +20 to all Stats.

It can take some of it's original cybernetic concepts, while still maintaining it's natural combo.

Have I somewhat helped this menancing dragon bro?
