Well besides the fact that none of these Pokemon have any real offensive capabilities, they are currently doing their jobs wrong, sort of.
You want Forretress to have at least one attack, especially if you're playing through the game itself. It's not doing much with no attacks and Iron Defense right now away -- nothing is going to happen if you send it in and Toxic Spikes, then Iron Defense. The most you can do is Explosion, but why did you Iron Defense?
Gengar -- the only thing that seems right is Hypnosis. Dream Eater is a pretty bad move unless you're rather lucky with the Hypnosis hits, meaning a 60% chance to hit, and the risk that the enemy wakes up before you can hit them. If it hits, great. Gengar gets healed, but generally Psychic is better. Gengar wants Thunderbolt or Shadow Ball there to make up for the team's lack of offense, though a lot of Gengar use both anyway.
Blissey's awkward last three attacks should definitely be swapped out for something more useful, like Aromatherapy to heal your team, Seismic Toss because Blissey has moot attack and Seismic always does the same amount of damage, Toxic / Thunder Wave if you want to status, or Stealth Rock -- the most god attack in the game.
If there's one thing that can't tank, it's Shuckle. Even though it has the highest defenses in the game, it has no HP to back it up. Furthermore, it also has no attack, so it's better off using things like Toxic, Wrap, Bide, or Stealth Rock to rack up damage.
Slaking is okay, but you generally want to replace Slack Off with Earthquake or Return.
I don't know about Ninjask, but I think it needs a bit of Baton Pass. I don't think Swagger is warranted on this team, because few things could take a +2 fighting move on a strong enough Pokemon. Roost is bad here because of Ninjask's low health anyway, so use Swords Dance.
