I really want to have a competitive eevee team, I know they are not the best but I find them fun to use.. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with movesets that would give me more of a competitive edge.

Espeon magic bounce
Light screen or dazzling gleam
Reflect
Calm mind
Psychic

Umbreon synchronize
Dark pulse
Payback
Curse
??

Vaporeon hydration
Rest
Rain dance
Hydro pump
Toxic

Flareon guts
Will o wisp
Sunny day
Flare blitz
Dig

Leafeon chlorophyll
Sword dance
Leaf blade
Dig
?

I would put wish and protect on the vaporeon. I also have a magic bounce espeon with wise glasses.

For your Espeon, I would suggest replacing Psychic with Psyshock. With this move, you could take down a range of specially-defensive Pokémon that walls Espeon, such as either Chansey or Blissey. EV spread—I would suggest 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe. Make sure that it's got Timid nature and is holding a Light Clay, by the way. (:

Also, since this is about team-building, I'm moving your topic to Battle Center.

Moved.

Thanks got the help guys. I really like the ideas you guys gave me.
But as for sylveon, I was checking his learned and breed able moved and it's not listed. How is he able to learn it?
I appreciate your help, this is the first pokemon game I've played since red, and am trying to learn more about competitive play

You have a lot to learn about competitive play, I'm afraid.

As Nymphadora mentioned, use a Dual Screen set for Espeon, as this is its best bet outside of Baton Pass teams:
-Reflect
-Light Screen
-Psychic/Psyshock
-Hidden Power (Fire)/Baton Pass
Nature: Timid
EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 Spe
Item: Light Clay
Ability: Magic Bounce

Curse only benefits Payback. Speaking of Curse, it needs a lot of support to work effectively, and Umbreon is better off giving Wish support:
-Wish
-Protect
-Foul Play (Gen V move tutor move)
-Toxic/Heal Bell
Nature: Calm
EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 SDef
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Synchronize

Hydra-Rest isn't viable on Vaporeon anymore, due to the nerf to Drizzle. It's even worse when it's combined with manual Rain Dance:
-Wish
-Protect
-Scald
-Ice Beam/Toxic/Roar
Nature: Bold
EVs: 248 HP/252 Def/8 SDef
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb

Flareon is considered the worst of the Eeveelutions, due to its shallow movepool. This is the best it can do post-Bank:
-Flame Charge
-Facade
-Superpower (Gen V tutor move)
-Flare Blitz/Protect
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
Item: Toxic Orb
Ability: Guts

Dig is too easy to play around, so even though it gives Leafeon coverage against Steel Pokemon, it's not worth it:
-Swords Dance
-Leaf Blade
-Double-Edge/Return/X-Scissor
-Heal Bell/Baton Pass
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 160 HP/124 Atk/224 Spe
Item: Leftovers

Sylveon can only have Pixilate from a Hidden Ability Eevee (Anticipation in its case; it can be obtained from a Friend Safari). It can also learn Wish via egg move, as can the other Eeveelutions. Also, here are better Sylveon sets for you to try:
-Wish
-Protect
-Moonblast (with Cute Charm)/Hyper Voice (with Pixilate; it only affects Normal moves, not ones that are already Fairy type, also a B2/W2 tutor move)
-Shadow Ball/Hidden Power (Fire)
Nature: Bold
EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
Item: Leftovers

or
-Calm Mind
-Moonblast/Hyper Voice (see above)
-Shadow Ball
-Hidden Power (Fire)/Psyshock
Nature: Modest/Bold
EVs: 252 HP/252 Def (Bold) or SAtk (Modest)/4 Spe
Item: Leftovers
