    IAmGroot (Trevenent):

    EVs: 252 HP, 48 Attack, rest in Sp. Def (204?) - WoW will do enough to absorb physical damage so focus on Sp.Def
    Moves: Substitute, Will-O-Wisp, Leech Seed, Phantom Force/Horn Leech - Phantom Force is useful for getting an extra turn to harvest your Sitrus berry, Horn Leech if you detest the idea of using Phantom Force

    Instead of Metagross, I'd recommend Espeon
    Ability: Magic Bounce
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 Sp.atk/252 Sp/4 Hp
    Moves: Light Screen, Reflect, Psyshock, dazzling gleam
    Item: light clay

    Your team is left open to hazards/ status moves so magic bounce would work well as a counter for those.

    I'd also recommend this.
    RougeLegacy (Greninja):
    Ability: Protean
    Nature: jolly
    EVs: 252 Atk/252 Spd/4/hp
    Moves: U-turn, Shadow sneak, Waterfall, and Gunk Shot
    Item: Life Orb

    This physically attacking Greninja catches everyone off guard. Greninja is a mixed attacker so this works well. Shadow sneak is for priority while the other moves give different type coverage than the other Greninja.

    [3D='greninja']
    RougeLegacy (Greninja):
    Ability: Protean
    Nature: Naive
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SpA/252 Spd/
    Moves: Hydro Pump, Ice Beam, Dark Pulse, Gunk Shot
    Item: Life Orb

    Gunk Shot lets you OHKO pretty much any Faiiry. 'nuff said

    Also, move Stealth Rocks onto Garchomp (over Rock Slide) and use Swords Dance/Fire Blast over EQ.

    P.S. Your team dies vs. Greninja and SD Talonflame, it would be nice to have a check to those 2. I'm not sure what I'd recommend though, tbh. Maybe replace Trevenant and Metagross with another defensive core? Like Heatran and something else.

    You could also put Rocks on Heatran + Choice Scarf Garchomp. I dunno.

    2 Suggestions that you can take if you want:

    * If you make changes on the team try to show us the changes that you have done puting them in the main post. With this you allow the people that is arriving to know where start helping :)

    * Try building the team in Showdown and export it to here :). So we can import it to our PC and start studying it. This will allow to work faster on the process of improve your team.
