Absol, Sandslah,and Gardevoir look pretty good.

For Heracross, definately give it megahorn. But keep brick break.
Try:

Heracross @Leftovers
ADAMANT nature
~Sword dance or Bulk up
~Megahorn
~Brick break
~Earthquake or rockslide

On Ninjask, I would use it as a baton passer:

Ninjask @leftovers
adamant nature
~Baton pass
~Sword dance
~Aerial ace
~Shadow ball

Ya, and get that Jynx because you need another special sweeping pokemon or whatever. You have 4 physical sweeping pokemon, so maybe drop one or two for tank pokemon such as umbreon or walls like skarmory, blissey, or snorlax.
 
You have a bunch of Swords Dancers. Why not just give them a Jask Pass? Also, you need more of a Special presence.

Ninjask @ Leftovers ** Sasuke
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Substitute
- Swords Dance
- Silver Wind
- Baton Pass

Absol @ Leftovers ** Ibiki
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Fire Blast
- Wish
- Baton Pass

[Pass to Gardevoir, since you have Jask.]

Sandslash @ Leftovers ** Itachi
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Aerial Ace
- Return

Heracross @ Salac Berry ** Rin
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Rock Slide
- Megahorn
- Endure
- Reversal

[Kinda hard for me to get an Endrevver to work with a Jask pass. Salac and Liechi seem pointless then.]

Gardevoir @ Leftovers ** Sakura
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Will-o-Wisp
- Psychic
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Punch

I believe that was one of my more subpar rates ever.

If you are going to use a Jask-passer, you should have a Hera like this...
Heracross@ Leftovers
Adamant Nature
-Brick Break
-Megahorn
-Rock slide
-EQ
I don't think a CB is needed on it cos after a couple of Swords Dance's from the Ninjask, you will OHKO everything!

I hate Resters!!!
Like your team, I do. But still I think you should have a Sp. someone in your life. Jynx will do. Or wait Jynx and Gardevoir are both Psychic. Keep them both until you can find Water Tank. For instance, might I suggest a BIG BAD Vaporeon (OK, maybe it isn't BIG and BAD, but it still works). Then choose the better one to keep.

Alakazam makes an awesome special sweeper (I'm not just saying that cause I like it). It's good with all elemental punches and Psychic for STAB.

If you do decide to use it, here is my favorite Alkazam strategy:
Alakazam@Salac Berry/Petaya Berry
Trait: Synchronize
Nature: Jolly (+Spd., -Atk.)/Modest (+Sp.Atk., -Atk.)
Endure
Psychic
Thunderpunch/Firepuch/Icepuch
Thunderpunch/Firepuch/Icepuch

The stratgey is to Endure a hit (with such low defenses Endure works well). Then the Berry activates. Then sweep away. Of course Alakazam is screwed if Tyranitar comes out. Because of its Sand Stream Ability, even if you Endure a hit you'll be hurt by the Sandstorm.

I beleive you mean Timid.
And Enduring Pokemon don't work too well, with out something like Reversal or Flail.
