    So i'm fairly new to pokemon in the newer generations, and need some help please, with team order and items too!

    Team -

    Haxorus: Outrage, X-Scissor, Dragon Dance, Dragon Claw
    Samurott: Grass Knot, Ice Beam, Surf, Scald
    Crobat: Air Slash, Toxic, Venoshock, Hypnosis
    Heracross: Mega Horn, Close Combat, Stone Edge, Arial Ace
    Chandelure: Flamethrower, Psychic, Shadow Ball, Will-O-Wisp
    Scrafty: Brick Break, Hi Jump Kick, Feint Attack, Crunch

    Thanks
     
    Give Haxorus a Dragon Fang, and try teaching it Brick Break or Earthquake so you don't get walled by steel types.

    Samurott needs a Metronome or Mystic Water, depending on your preference. Wise Glasses are also an option, but I would personally prefer the 20% boost to half of my moves over a 10% boost all-around.

    Chandelure needs (my mind blanked...it's the balloon item that makes it immune to ground-type attacks until popped). Teach it Energy Ball.

    Scrafty is too STAB-oriented. Try giving it some more diverse moves like Head Smash, which will give it a fighting chance at Flying foes, and most dragons IV Gen and older (Flygon...rawr).

    Heracross needs an Expert Belt or Focus Sash if you fear Flying types.

    Crobat needs a Wide Lens to make Hypnosis viable.
    -----
    You should lead with Samurott to KO Stealth Rock leads, and since your team has a great lack of need for set up, just follow with whatever has a type advantage. This team isn't bad STAB-wise, but a general lack of a utility belt gambit may come back to haunt you.
