Tyranitar; Doesn't need Hyper Beam as a finishing move as HBeam has 5 PP, can miss and even if it is a finishing move it leaves TTar open for attack the second turn. And I doubt you would have a surfing Sharpedo with Kings Rock for an attempt to flinch the opponent. If you're doing double battles. Hate to say this but you'd be better off with an elemental move on the bugger. Like Ice Beam or Outrage or something. Or maybe Brick Break/other.

Golem; Okay, you have a Rock/Dark type, why do you want a Rock/Ground type, it;s basically weak to the same things, and is probably slower than TTar. And since you have TTar, you'd be better off with Skarm instead, so;

Skarmory; Toxic/Spikes/Roar/Something, seems to be the standard. And with TTar's Equake, and maybe a Quick Claw to Ttar too, it'll be fast enough to OHKO electric types.

Espeon; Psychic/Reflect/Light Screen/Protect|Calm Mind|Bite|Morning Sun, Espeon is best used as a screener/special attacker than a supporter.

Meganium; Standard, though you could try for something over Body Slam. Like Toxic, but it's good none the less.

Entei: As you're going for a special attacker, have Modest @ Sunny Day, Solarbeam, Flamethrower, Bite. Or you could drop Sunnyday if Mega is faster than it, and have something else, or drop Sunny Day from Mega if Entei > Mega in speed, for something else.

Suicune: Get a nature that +Special Defence or +Special Attack, and have Ice Beam/Surf/Mirror Coat/Rest|Calm Mind|Other, no Rain Dance. Rain Dance bad. Rain Dance can hurt you more than help.

Tyranitar
Naughty@ Quiet @ Leftovers
Rock Slide
Crunch
Earthquake
Hyper Beam

Hyper Beam doesn't have a place on Tyranitar anyways. Tyranitar's Atk. power makes it pointless.

Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Crunch

Normally Taunt would be there, but this is InGame Colosseum.

Golem
Adament@ Leftovers
Rock Slide
Protect
E-quake
Brick Break

Double-Edge is the move you want instead of Protect if you have Rock Head.

Espeon
Sassy@Twisted spoon Modest @ Leftovers
Psychic
Helping Hand
Reflect
????

Don't use items that boost the power of a specific move type. That set could use some help as well.

Calm Mind
Psychic
HP Fire
Bite

Get it to a move relearner.

Meganium
Calm@Miracle Seed Leftovers
Sunny day
Solarbeam
Synthesis
Body Slam

Remember what I said for Espeon. I use that set too, so I can't argue against you.

Entei
???@Charcoal Adamant @ Leftovers
Sunnyday
Flamethrower
Bite
Swagger

I've said it twice by now, but remember the rule for type-enhancing items.

Calm Mind
Solarbeam
Flamethrower
Substitute

Solarbeam and Flamethrower are in conjunction with Meganium's Sunny Day. CM up on the first turn to allow Meganium to SD. Maybe Entei would be better if it actually had worthwhile moves to go with it's high Atk. stat.

Suicune
???@Mystic Water Modest @ Leftovers
Rain Dance
Auora Beam(but become Ice Beam)
Surf
Mirror Coat

You know what I'm about to say in regards to the item.

Calm Mind
Surf
Ice Beam
Rest

It actually works really well, from my experience.

I'll be training them to 68. Or should I use my Fire Red instead?

That last part rhymed. (FireRed instead =D) I suggest FireRed then.

Your Pikachu is ok. Iron tail doesn't have the best accuracy and anyway you have brick break to get rid of rock types. you should dump Iron Tail.
Toxic on a low defense pokemon is bad and it doesn't even have protect or attract on it. You should have waited until it evolved and then you could have given it better moves.
You have two moves of the same type on Gyrados. Not good. Though I mostly say this because I hate Hydro Pump.

Its a good team I think though it does have flaws.
