Team actually looks pretty nice, as long they're a high enough level.

I'll try to make a few suggestions.

Torterra @ Leftovers
Adamant Nature
Ability: Overgrow
-Curse
-Wood Hammer
-Earthquake/Stone Edge
-Leech Seed/Protect

I suggested adding Leech Seed to help deal with the Wood Hammer recoil.

Poryogn-Z @ Life Orb
Modest Nature
Ability: Adaptability
-Nasty Plot
-Tri-Attack
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt

Idk. STAB Tri-attack, and BoltBeam combo.

Glaceon @ Wise Glasses
Modest Nature
Ability: Snow Cloak
-Ice Beam
-Shadow Ball
-Water Pulse
-Wish

Idk either. Just slapped Water Pulse on to deal with Fire-types and the like.

Lucario @ Choice Specs
Timid Nature
Ability: Inner Focus
-Aura Sphere
-Dragon Pulse
-Psychic
-Shadow Ball

Almost exactly the same as Rayray posted.

Dusknoir @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
Ability: Pressure
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Payback/Shadow Sneak
-Will-O-Wisp/Toxic

A variation of the ResTalk set. To be honest, I think the elemental punches should work just fine, though you might also need a STAB move. As lv37_mohawk_knight mentioned, Pain Split is also a viable option.

Absol @ Life Orb
Jolly Nature
Ability: Pressure
-Swords Dance
-Night Slash
-Superpower
-X-Scissor

I just put in some somewhat random moves along with Swords Dance. You do have Platinum, right? *Looks at title of thread* Oh, wait, never mind.

Hope I didn't sound like a jerk. Due to recent harsh experiences with Balmund, I'm trying to watch what I say.

Well, with Leech Seed, you get more PP, and you only have to waste one turn to "activate" it. With Synthesis, you only get a meager 5 PP, and you take up too many turns when you try to heal. Also, Synthesis depends greatly on the weather. If it's raining or a sandstorm is brewing, the HP recovery gets cut by about half, or more.

Torterra Adamant
Leftovers
Woodhammer
Earthquake
Curse
Stone Edge/Leech Seed

You do not need a Dragon type move when Ice types pose the biggest thread to Torterra. Stone Edge to tackle that. Curse for Atk and Def boost in exchange for Speed (drops), EQ for STAB.

Porygon-Z Timid/Modest
Life Orb
Recover/Nasty Plot
Ice Beam
Shadow Ball
Thunderbolt

This set seems solid; either Nasty Plot for Sp Atk boost or Recover to regain health from Life Orb cost.

Glaceon Modest
Any Item
Ice Beam
Shadow Ball
Toxic/Hidden Power (Electric/Fighting)
Wish

Wish for health boost/support. Hidden Power electric for Water types who resist Ice type attacks, Hidden Power fighting for Steels and Rocks.

Lucario Modest/Timid
Scope Lens
Dark Pulse
Aura Sphere
Water Pulse/Psychic
Dragon Pulse

Dark Pulse to tackle Ghosts and Psychics, Water Pulse for Fires and Grounds or Psychic for foe Fighting types, Aura Sphere for STAB and Dragon Pulse for filler, basically. Or you could put Psychic in instead of Dragon Pulse.

Dusknoir Adamant
Leftovers
Thunderpunch/Ice Punch/Fire punch
Will-O-Wisp
Shadow Sneak
Curse/Pain Split

Annoyer. Choose an elemental punch based on what you wish for Dusknoir to cover, Will-O-Wisp for attack drop, Shadow Sneak for STAB and speed priority, Pain Split for health gain if his health is lower than the foes.

Absol Jolly
Super Luck
Any Item
Psycho Cut
Swords Dance
Night Slash
Aerial Ace

Take advantage of Super Luck for Night Slash. Aerial Ace for Bug types (or Breloom/Heracross), Psycho Cut for Toxicroak or anything else weak against Psychic, Swords Dance for Atk boost.
Changes in Bold. I may be wrong about certain things, though...
