    Zoroark isn't as good as it used to be this gen because of the Fairies running around. A better Dark Pokemon to use is Greninja because of Protean and its better Speed:
    -Hydro Pump/Surf
    -Ice Beam/Dark Pulse
    -U-turn/Dark Pulse
    -Hidden Power (Fire)/Extrasensory
    Nature: Hasty/Naive/Timid
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Expert Belt
    Ability: Protean

    or
    -Spikes
    -Hydro Pump/Surf
    -Ice Beam/Extrasensory/Dark Pulse
    -U-turn/Taunt/Hidden Power (Fire)
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Focus Sash

    Hidden Power Ground is the preferred option over Psychic, but Psychic is still viable if you can't get the right Hidden Power type.

    Cloyster is NOT a good Rapid Spinner this time around because of its bad defensive typing. Forretress is the better option because it has a better defensive typing; not only can it get hazards up, it spins them away:
    -Stealth Rock/Spikes
    -Rapid Spin
    -Gyro Ball
    -Volt Switch
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers

    Mega Garchomp is only good with Sandstorm support from Tyranitar or Hippowdon. This team contains neither one of them, so Mega Garchomp isn't worth it. That, and Mega Chomp is slower than its regular form. Use Choice Band as the item.

    Florges is outclassed in OU. Sylveon does its job better:
    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Hyper Voice
    -Heal Bell/Shadow Ball
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Pixilate

    Sad to say, but Torterra is still terrible in OU. Even with Assault Vest, it still folds to Ice moves. Metagross is the better Assault Vest user:
    -Meteor Mash
    -Earthquake
    -Zen Headbutt/Bullet Punch
    -Pursuit/Thunder Punch/Ice Punch
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef
    Item: Assault Vest
    Ability: Clear Body

    Trevenant, Gourgeist and Mega Venusaur are also better Grass Pokemon to use over Torterra because of their better utility:

    Trevenant:
    -Horn Leech/Wood Hammer
    -Earthquake/Rock Slide
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Rest
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/180 Def/76 Spe
    Item: Leftovers/Lum Berry
    Ability: Natural Cure/Harvest

    or
    -Horn Leech
    -Shadow Claw/Leech Seed
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Protect
    Nature: Careful
    EVs: 244 HP/16 Def/248 SDef
    Item: Sitrus Berry
    Ability: Harvest

    or
    -Substitute
    -Leech Seed
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Phantom Force
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/180 Def/76 Spe
    Item: Sitrus Berry
    Ability: Harvest

    Gourgeist (Super):
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Leech Seed
    -Seed Bomb
    -Shadow Sneak/Pain Split
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Atk/252 Def
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Frisk

    Mega Venusaur:
    -Giga Drain/Power Whip
    -Sludge Bomb/Sleep Powder
    -Earthquake
    -Synthesis
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Venusaurite

    or
    -Giga Drain/Leech Seed
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Hidden Power (Fire)
    -Synthesis/Protect
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 SAtk
    Item: Venusaurite
     
    Just wanted to say that Florges is NOT outclassed by Sylveon. Florges is a better special wall. It takes special hits better than Sylveon without having to max the sp.def stat which means you can put EVs into its def too and as thus it can take hits better from both sides of the spectrum. It also needs Toxic over Energy Ball too to wear down threats. Energy Ball sucks and is random and doesn't even hit anything relevant.

    As for Garchomp, he wants Stone Edge over Fire Fang and Swords Dance over Dual Chop so you can nail Togekiss who otherwise hard walls you, amongst various other things such as Gyarados AND it gets a boost from Sand Force.

    Also speaking of Garchomp, if you are gonna use its mega forme, using Tyranitar might not be a bad idea to activate Sand Force. This also covers your horrific Talonflame weakness.

    Hope this helps a bit good luck.
     
    You can use Cloyster if you want. Cloyster's a good Pokemon. It's just that you need a different set that actually makes use of its ability. Yes, Cloyster has great defense and can learn Spikes and Rapid Spin, but its terrible HP and Sp.Defense and typing prevent it from spinning and laying down hazards. Cloyster is meant to sweep:

    -Cloyster w/Focus Sash or King's Rock or something
    Nature: Jolly/Naive
    Ability: Skill Link
    EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP
    Moves: Shell Smash, Icicle Spear, Rock Blast, Razor Shell/Hydro Pump

    That is how you Cloyster.

    And like Dark Azelf said, if you're gonna use Garchomp's mega form, put Tyranitar in the team. If not, then don't use Garchomp's mega form. And follow his move suggestions.
     
    thanks for all the help guys, but this really sucks, I want to make torterra shine, its my favorite pokemon ever! I just found this really awesome move called Rototiller that boost grass type's attack and s. attack.
