/vp/ is not good at competitive.
Try asking in the smogon forums.

I use banded Steelix with Claydol as my rocker. Rocks put the Vikavolt in range of Stone Edge, and I've had the extreme luck of not missing so far.
If Steelix gets too low, though, it gets a lot tougher.

AssVest Inceineroar is a good check.

As long as it's not locked into Bug Buzz, Mowtom can force it out easily.

This. Literally the only thing holding Vikavolt back is its speed, but its still fast enough to break through all of the relevant walls.

I love how Togedemaru is a hard counter to a bunch of Electric-types like Vikavolt and even Tapu Koko. Best pikaclone.
