I think my team might need a redo.

    So, after playing on the OU tier for a little bit. I have came to the conclusion that my team needs a redo (or at least a major change) and that I need to do something about it. First thing is first if one of my pokemon faints, it is game over for my team and second the pokemon I was building around (Porygon2) just sits there and does nothing. What happens most of the time is that I send out Porygon2 get alot of damage done to it and be unable to use it for the rest of the battle. Sylveon is not much help either as when I need to use it, I am usually against a physical attacker. In other words, my core is useless. Talonflame which is my only sweeper on my team has trouble finding an opportunity to safely switch in. The other half of my team does work decently. Especially, Quagsire and Scizor however, they both fear special attacks and my only specially defensive pokemon is Sylveon. Finally, my team has no win condition so it just ends up being something that just sits there until something good happens. So yeah, my team is not working well. Also, here is what my team looks like:

    Porygon2 @ Eviolite

    Bold Nature

    - Toxic

    Sylveon @ Leftovers
    Ability: Pixilate
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 SpD

    - Protect

    Talonflame
    Ability: Gale Wings

    - Acrobatics
    - Flare Blitz
    - Roost

    Quagsire @ Leftovers
