Fine.

*Psycho Cut

Looks fine. Just change the item to leftovers

Ability: Aftermath
*Thunderbolt
*Calm Mind
*Subtitute
*Shadow Ball
Held Item
*Leftovers

Pretty standard, if you don't want a baton passer. BP over Thunderbolt is an option, Glaceon might benefit from it.

;428;Lopunny

*Bounce

Not sure about this one...

;142;Aerodactyl
*Aqua Tail
*Fire Fang
*Earthquake
*Stone Edge
Held Item
*Choice Band

Fly is a move that should never be used in battle, teach it Aqua tail for coverage. Stone Edge > Rock Slide unless accuracy is a concern.

;471;Glaceon
*HP Fight/Wish
*Ice Beam
*Shadow Ball
*Fake Tears
Held Item
*Leftovers

Could work. HP Fight to get past Steels, Wish for self-healing, Ice Beam for STAB, Shadow Ball as a filler, Fake Tears to lower SpDef. You don't need Hail or Icy Rock, since none of your team benefits from it.

Comments in bold.

Good luck using Hail when it hurts all of your other team members.

Glaceon
Modest/Timid Nature
~Ice Beam
~Water Pulse
~Shadow Ball
~Fake Tears

Also, don't carry a Contest Pokemon in your Team, because most of the time a Contest moveset would hinder a Pokemon in its battles.

Lopunny @ Choice Band
Adamant Nature, Cute Charm Ability
~Ice Punch
~Thunderpunch
~Return
~Fire Punch/Sky Uppercut

Lopunny @ Lagging Tail/Iron Ball
Jolly Nature, Klutz ability
~Trick
~Return
~Ice Punch
~Thunderpunch

I've got this on my Glaceon:

- Ice Beam
- Signal Beam
- Water Pulse
- Shadow Ball

Signal Beam is Platinum move tutor, in case you didn't know.

I run Wise Glasses over Choice Specs since I run an Alakazam and Garchomp with their respective choice items, but that's just my team. Considering the team here, I'd say Choice Specs though.
