Alright, first of all, the stats, I don't know what they are, but if they are meant to be ev's, then you have to remember that you have 508 points, mostly spread 252/252/4. Then the pokemon:
Galvetula: seems fine, aside from electro web, make that thunderbolt.
Greninja: swap toxic spikes for dark pulse
Charizard: get rid of dragon calw, and get another special move in its place
Sylveon: swap draining kiss for a non-fairy special move
Haxorus: seems fine
Snealsel: evolve it, weavile is stronger. Swap ice beam for night slash and calm mind for hone claws.
