Not sure on this.

Togekiss
Item: Metronome (this IS a Flinchax right?ifi t, repeated Air Slash will own from Metronome)
Aura Sphere
Air Slash
Flamethrower
Roost

Changes are in bold.
 
If you want to 'flinch hax' with togekiss you need thunder wave. Without it isn't even going to be going first unless you give it timid + 252 spd evs, which then makes it useless at taking hits like it is meant to do.

flamethrower is useless on togekiss. air slash hits grass and bugs harder.
 
Choice scarf on Roserade makes a great lead.

Roserade@Choice Scarf
Trait: Natural Cure
Timid 252 sp.atk / 252 spd / 6 hp
-Shadow Ball
-Hidden Power [Ice]
-Leaf Storm
-Sleep Powder

It's trait works well since if any thing trys and gives you a status then simply switch out and it's gone since most will try and give you a status if they know your running a choice version of it. Hidden Power ice is nice on dragon leads, Shadow Ball for gengar leads.
 
why not give gengar sludge bomb, sure it has bad coverage, but when nothing hits for super effective sludge bomb is the most powerfull move he's got.

You just answered yourself.

Anyway;

Hypnosis + Dream Eater is a bad and over-rated combo of moves. The person you're playing will just switch, and with Sleep Clause being a standard rule, Hypnosis/Dream Eater is useless. It works in-game but not in competitive.

Thunderbolt
Shadow Ball
Hypnosis
HP Ice / Explosion
@ Life Orb

Destiny Bond
Counter
Explosion / Shadow Ball
Hypnosis
@ Focus Sash

Two alternative sets for Gengar. The second is better used as your first Pokemon out.

Roserade @ Choice Specs
- Leaf Storm
- HP Fire / HP Ice
- Shadow Ball
- Sludge Bomb

Rhyperior doesn't need Hammer Arm. Put Megahorn over Hammer Arm.
 
Rhyperior Megahorn and Avalanche>Hammer Arm

Togekiss roost/wish>Flamethrower

Scizor Brick break>iron head and batonpass>night slash

Arcanine@Life Orb
Adamant/Jolly
252 attack 252 speed 6hp

Extremespeed
Flare Blitz
Crunch
Thunderfang

The only good canine moveset there is, extremespeed to hit fast and finish off or final blow b4 u die, flareblitz for stab, thunderfang for waters and crunch for type coverage

Gengar@Wide/Zoom Lens
Modest
252 sp.attack 252 speed 6 hp

Hypnosis
Thunder
Foucs Blast
Destiny Bond

Hypnosis for sleep b4 attacking and thanks to zoom lens or wide lens, missing is reduced whcih is good for gar's attacks, thunder is a definite OHKO for gyara and prolly mence as well, focus blast for type coverage and destiny bond if you predict gar is finishing, it also works with a sash set
Hypnosis
Thunder
Focus Blast
