An Electric-type Pokemon is the best choice here, as resistance to Flying-type moves will also reduce damage. Of course, having a high Attack stat will still make Decidueye a difficult opponent, so your chosen Electric type must also be a tank.

Bellibolt

Even though Bellibolt is one of the easier Electric-type Pokémon to find in Scarlet and Violet, it is a great heavy tank with a lot of ability to survive.
