    Iron Head and Outrage don't let Gyerados accomplish much. Fairies are already hit fine by Waterfall, while a neutral unSTABed Outrage does as much as a neutral STAB Waterfall. Non-Mega Gyarados is better off using Substitute + Dragon Dance for easier setup opportunities without the Mega Stone:
    -Substitute
    -Dragon Dance
    -Waterfall
    -Bounce
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant
    EVs: 88 HP/220 Atk/4 Def/196 Spe
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Intimidate

    Yes, we get that Magical Leaf doesn't miss, but it's not that strong, really. If Serperior must use an alternative Grass move besides Leaf Storm, that move has to be Giga Drain to replenish lost health:
    -Leaf Storm
    -Dragon Pulse
    -Hidden Power (Fire)
    -Giga Drain/Taunt/Substitute
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Miracle Seed/Meadow Plate
    Ability: Contrary

    Heatran should replace Breloom, as you need a Talonflame check/counter:
    -Stealth Rock
    -Lava Plume
    -Toxic
    -Taunt/Protect/Roar
    Nature: Calm
    EVs: 248 HP/192 SDef/68 Spe
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Fire Blast/Magma Storm
    -Flash Cannon/Hidden Power (Ice)/Stone Edge
    -Earth Power
    -Stealth Rock
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe
    Item: Air Balloon

    Why, oh why, are you using Hyper Beam and Echoed Voice on Sylveon? The former is strong, yes, but it makes Sylveon a sitting duck the next turn, and that's bad, considering how slow it is. Echoed Voice takes a bit too much time to get going and Sylveon isn't meant to say in battle for too long. Hyper Voice is the consistent Fairy STAB to use; it has no drawbacks whatsoever and is still powerful enough to leave dents in anything. Sylveon also needs Psyshock to deal with Poison Pokemon on the switch:
    -Hyper Voice
    -Psyshock
    -Shadow Ball/Hidden Power (Fire/Ground)
    -Baton Pass
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 244 HP/252 SAtk/12 Spe
    Item: Choice Specs
    Ability: Pixilate
