    Here's what I'd do with the Pokemon you've chosen.

    Machoke
    Leave him as is. Evolve him if you are able to. Light Screen is a good move to have to protect from Psychic-type moves.

    Cherrim
    - Toxic
    - Energy Ball
    - Sunny Day
    - Solarbeam

    Bunerary
    - Foresight
    - Return
    - Bounce
    - Rock Smash, then replace with Focus Blast upon evolving.

    Drifblim
    - Fly
    - Shadow Ball
    - Thunderbolt
    - Psychic

    Lumineon
    - Surf
    - Ice Beam or Blizzard
    - Silver wind
    - Gust

    Garchomp
    - Dig
    - Dragon Claw
    - Crunch
    - Flamethrower

    Giratina replacing Garchomp
    - Aerial Ace
    - Shadow Force
    - Dragon Pulse
    - Earthquake


    Since you're replacing Garchomp with Giratina, you will need a Pokemon that can learn Fire-type moves. Maybe teach Machoke Flamethrower or replace Buneary or Machoke with a Fire-type. A good idea would be to choose Chimchar as your starter, since he is a good Fire-type. This could replace Machoke since it is also Fighting-type when evolved.
