4, sorry. But here are some improvements.

Umbreon@Leftovers
Bold Nature
Trait: Sychronize
-Mean Look
-Baton Pass
-Taunt
-Moonlight

Yeah. Umbreon Passes the Mean Look to Celebi, who:

Celebi@Leftovers
Bold Nature
Trait: Natural Cure
-Perish Song
-Psychic
-Recover
-Heal Bell

Umbreon and Celebi sets taken directly off of Smogon, btw. This combo works though, so why not? Pass the Mean Look to Celebi, who Perish Songs away.

Mew@Leftovers
Jolly Nature
Trait: Synchronize
-Bulk Up/Swords Dance
-Brick Break
-Shadow Ball
-Softboiled

Jirachi@Leftovers
Timid Nature
Trait: Serene Grace
-Calm Mind
-Psychic
-Thunderbolt
-Wish
 
Another Mew:

Mew (Modest/Timid Nature if you can get it) @Leftovers
-Psychic/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam/Flamethrower/Surf
-Psychic/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam
-Calm Mind
-Softboiled

Surf/Flamethrower are ingame... but Boltbeam/Psychic are better choices.

Yes, SapphireL's Mew is the standard, but I suggested a Physical one simply to avoid redundancy. And also, you don't have any Physical Pokemon, and Mew is really the only one in that team that can pull off that role, hence the Swords Dance/Bulk Up set. The standard Mew is generally better, but I believe that Physical Mew fits more into the team...ah well, your decision.

Number rates are not allowed.

You should really post up your Pokémon’s Natures. It’s the only way we can tell which is a good moveset for Mew.

10/10! A perfect team!

Mew ;151;
-Psychic
-Flamethrower
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt/Calm Mind/Softboiled

A special sweeping set with or without a heal/stat up move.

Celebi ;251;
-Psychic
-Giga Drain
-Leech Seed
-Recover/Substitute

Healing moves might help due to Celebi's many weaknesses. It can also learn Shock Wave and Water Pulse, but they only have 60 power.

Jirachi ;385;
-Psychic
-Doom Desire
-Thunderbolt
-Wish

Thunderbolt > Shock Wave. Never Miss attacks aren't powerful without a very high attack power and STAB.

Umbreon ;197;
-Mean Look
-Shadow Ball/Wish
-Toxic
-Confuse Ray

This isn't a reliable moveset, but at least Umbreon can hold on its own. Many people choose to use as Supporter which has no attack moves or status move due to its low attack.

My mew's nature is naughty.
My celebi's nature is relaxed.
My Jirachi's nature is timid.
My Umbreon's nature is jolly.

^Wow, people just don’t listen.

Naughty Mew?
You could make it a Subpuncher:

Mew @Leftovers
-Substitute
-Focus Punch
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Beam
 

Frost Nova

The predator awaits.
Or more like people have a reading problem: number rates are totally unhelpful and should not even exist in the first place.

Jirachi@lefties
Relaxed Nature
- Calm Mind
- Psychic
- T-Bolt / Thunder
- Substitute

Thunder is there to take advantage of Serene Grace.

Umbreon@lefties
Impish / Relaxed Nature
- Wish
- Substitute / Protect
- Toxic
- Baton Pass

Wishpasser. Much, much better than the annoyer moveset in the fact that it helps your whole team.
