What are the neccessary parts of a team comp for competitive? I know I need a setup mon and a wall, but other than that I have Noivern and Mimikyu because they're my favorites. I'm assuming my last two should be a wall to wall off both types and a wallbreaker?

Sadly the meta revolves around countering what's commonly used

Sounds awful, why do games always have to have stale ass metas?

There's a lot of different types of teams you can have, but for a general team you should have a defensive core of 2-3 mons who cover each other's weaknesses, and 2-3 offense heavy Pokemon with enough coverage and raw power between them to kill off most threats. Sprinkle utility moves or mons based on what your team needs.
A very basic way to team build is to think of the Pokemon you like, in your case Noivern and Mimikyu, and choose Pokemon based on what will make those two do their jobs better.

Same goes for doubles too I assume, just with some moves made for double batttles? Double battles seem easier so I'm probably going to try playing them more.

Not all games do, just Pokemon due to GF's refusal to properly balance their online game like literally any other game company

Real talk, ditch Noivern for literally any other Dragon in Galar. It's actually by far the worst one, and that says a lot since we have Turtonator, Running it is actively harming your own team.

noivern just can't compete with the likes of dragapult

Sorta. There's a lot more utility moves at play, and you're going to be seeing protect a lot. You'll see that dedicated walls like Toxapex see really little usage since they're just sitting ducks. Offensive potential is generally favored in doubles.

dude no you are painfully ignorant about game design if you think this
balancing even a handful of variables in a game without some rising to the top is almost impossible, with the number of variables in Pokemon there is literally no possibility of it
the best gf can do, and it's debatable whether they actually do this, is intentionally nerf or buff certain elements to craft a meta that's enjoyable - but the only way to make if broadly balanced would be to basically obliterate the meaningful mechanical distinctions between Pokemon
