Scarf is... eh. Use Lum Berry to counter Persian and Rapidash leads, and U-Turn to scout.

This Shuckle is okay.

It's a custom set, but eh... You'd rather give those 80 EVs to Speed, so at least you reach 208, making you faster than some stuff that could cause you problems. I still prefer the Agility Hitmonchan, though.

I've provided you a better EV spread.

Ew, no Thunder Wave. Manectric just doesn't need it. I've also provided a spread that puts you above Base 100 Speed Pokémon, and give you some more HP. Use Substitute with Petaya Berry and an even HP number so Petaya activates after three Subs, but get an odd HP number when using Life Orb + Charge Beam.

I guess it can work as mixed wall. Oh well. Roar works for PHazing, but Yawn is always useful, and Toxic will be your only way to hit Lanturn and Dewgong.

Separate Pokémon analysis are bolded in the quote. Now, for the overall~
Your team cannot deal with Leafeon. Just can't. If the opponent manages to kill Manectric, your team is dead. Shuckle can't do anything to it if it Subs, and Shuckle can't really hold his guts against a +2 Atk Leafeon. So preserve your Manectric well, or add in a Swellow.
Talking about Swellow, again, Shuckle is your only hope against it. You'll have to revenge kill it, but then it'll just U-Turn to a counter.
As a whole, your team depends too much on Manectric and Shuckle. I'd really consider making that Hitmonchan an Agilichan so you have some more hope of sweeping a team. Following the above member's advice of using Stealth Rock on Shuckle may help out with Swellow, too.
So, my advices are;
Keep Manectric alive. It'll be your late game sweeper.
Do not send Shuckle repeatedly in. It's your only hope against many sweepers.
