This matchup as AD Sion will be the hardest, you can't land your full electrocute combo, he blocks ults if he's really good, tons of poke damage, good at 1v1, and is tanky. If you are against him top as AD sion, either farm under tower, ask for gank pre-6, wait for CD and go all in, or just afk and get low priority queue.
NOTICE
For this guide, I feel like people from bronze to plat can use this, the lower the elo the better the play.

PROS
-
A very flexible champion
He has a lot of bugs in his kit that can be manipulated
Fun to play
Any playstyle works
Easy to learn, hard to master
Classic Sion can dance with his mastery emote if timed properly
As of patch 8.14, he is played very rarely and no one bans
Wins teamfights in small cramped areas
CONS
-
He is especially vunerable to cc in early trades
No taunt, so you have to be a literal wall in front of your team
His Q can be dodged/you will land a full Q 1% of the time you play Sion
Trades as a Sion are very mana costly
Ranged champs almost win lane vs Sion
Some dueling top laners (Darius, Jayce, Fiora, Garen etc) just beat Sion with their kit
His Q can be seen
High mobility champions excel against a Sion
-
AD Sion is satisfying to play against squishes once you master the art of Sion
AP Sion is satisfying to play against lane bullies once you buy and play Sion
Tank Sion is pretty useless tbh, he can't taunt meaning there's no way to soak up damage 100% of the time, why not build damage and some tanky items to survive enough
AD/AP Sion have such low CDs from items
Its just fun to play AD/AP Sion rather than do no damage
CHAMPIONS THAT EXCEL WITH SION CC
Annie is someone who needs to land her R and W and a good Sion ult or Q can allow her to place a stunning R or W which can pick off the carry of the enemy team
Sol is champion who can land a Q or a R with your Q or R to push enemies back into his nether regions which can help your team either escape or with his Q, help land a wombo combo.
Brand is someone who needs to land a W+Q+R to melt away the enemy team, so a Sion Ult or Q can fufill this combo assuming you ult into the whole enemy team. If you E and slow, even a noob Brand can W+Q to stun then kill them.
Cass is really good champion to play with Sion, this is due to Cass able to land a easy W and slow to help you Q or R and as they are stunned land a Q and/or E and maybe a ult to stun them even more.
Darius needs gapclosers like AD Sion, and a infinte stun counts as a gapcloser. If your Darius goes AD and not tank, land a R, he W and Q, and while this happens, you Q for another stun, then he aa until he gets 5 stacks and then GG
Diana is useful the second you land a Q or R, she ults in, Q+W+E then you just murder them all :)
Ekko, assuming he isn't a noob, can W in the space of your R or Q, then its infinite stun and then he can ult/q/e and its gg assuming their carry dies, I would not recommend going with a EKko for 90% of your Rs or Qs unless he's a genius like Shiptur (just to clarify, a m7 0/10 Ekko is not a genius)
This is a long stretch, I would not consider Eve as a champion who excels in CC, but as I just met a Eve main, this was my promise to put this in the guide. Eve is exception where you have to go AD in most games, why? Because once your insane Q or R lands, assuming you are using my build, eve can just ult and get at least a double kill. Its a long stretch, but its viable.
Fiddlesticks is one of the champions I hate the most in any lane because of his stupid kit. It sucks to lane against him, but as a teammate, his Ult+E+Zhonyas is really good if he is going AP. But your Q or R can help him ult in and do more damage with you. Pretty sure the stun lasts enough for him to ult in
You land R or Q, he R+E, ggwp (yeah I hate fizz)
A good GP doesn't need you to crit his barrels, but a good enemy team can predict. So you're going to have to R+Q for his E is land +R, while his R doesn't do that much damage, it slows and helps your team catch up.
