    So I've been planning to play online for a while and i've made my team before, but I just need help editing it. I've tested this team with friends and I haven't lost yet, but my friends aren't that good so I'm not sure if I'd do remotely well online.

    Thundurus-T-Electric Gem-Jolly Volt Absorb
    Focus Blast
    Nasty Plot
    Thunderbolt
    Dark Pulse

    Blaziken Life Orb Adamant Speed Boost
    Sky Uppercut
    High Jump Kick
    Shadow Claw
    Flare Blitz

    Ferrothorn Rocky Helmet Lax Iron Barbs (Speed IV=0, i now hate breeding with a passion)
    Power Whip
    Wood Hammer
    Gyro Ball
    Iron Defense

    Starmie Choice Scarf Timid Natural Cure
    Thunderbolt
    Psychic
    Ice Beam
    Hydro Pump

    Haxourus Dragon Gem Impish Mold Breaker
    Outrage
    Dragon Dance
    Dragon Claw
    Superpower

    Mamoswine Ice Gem Adamant Snow Cloak
    Icicle Crash
    Earthquake
    Superpower
    Ice Shard

    How do you think this team would hold up online and how are the moves on my Pokemon?
     
    I'm assuming Gen V, as some Pokemon aren't available in X/Y. I'm afraid you'll need to re-breed some of your Pokemon, as painful as it sounds. EVs would totally be appreciated too.

    Jolly is a terrible nature for Therian Thundurus. Timid is the superior nature in every case:
    -Nasty Plot
    -Thunderbolt
    -Hidden Power (Ice)
    -Focus Blast/Grass Knot/Substitute/Agility
    Nature: Timid/Modest
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe (Timid) or 128 HP/252 SAtk/128 Spe (Modest)
    Item: Life Orb

    or
    -Agility
    -Thunderbolt
    -Hidden Power (Ice)
    -Grass Knot/Focus Blast
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb

    or
    -Thunderbolt
    -Hidden Power (Ice)
    -U-turn
    -Superpower/Grass Knot
    Nature: Naive
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Expert Belt

    or
    -Thunderbolt
    -Hidden Power (Ice/Flying)
    -Focus Blast
    -U-turn/Volt Switch
    Nature: Naive/Timid
    EVs: 4 Atk/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf

    Blaziken can get away with just Flare Blitz and Hi Jump Kick, as they're stupidly powerful and can dent even resists:
    -Swords Dance
    -Flare Blitz
    -Hi Jump Kick
    -Protect
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Leftovers/Life Orb
    Ability: Speed Boost

    Iron Defense isn't worth using on Ferrothorn because it's massive setup bait. An entry hazard must be used if it wants to make use of its support move pool. No it can't learn Wood Hammer:
    -Spikes/Stealth Rock
    -Leech Seed/Stealth Rock
    -Power Whip/Protect
    -Gyro Ball/Thunder Wave
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/48 Def/208 SDef
    Item: Leftovers

    Starmie should use Trick over Psychic to cripple walls. If a wall comes in and Starmie hasn't used a move yet, you can just Trick the Choice Scarf away.

    Impish is a waste of Haxorus' offensive capabilities. It's not the defensive kind of Pokemon, as it's somewhat frail:
    -Dragon Dance
    -Outrage
    -Earthquake
    -Low Kick/Taunt
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Lum Berry/Yache Berry
    Ability: Mold Breaker

    Thick Fat is still Mamoswine's preferred ability.
     
    If this is Gen. 5, it's also worth noting that five out of six Pokemon you have are in the OU tier. The only one that isn't is Blaziken, as he is banned from OU for some reason. Infernape is a very similar alternative if you want a Pokemon with a similar typing, or you could choose Sharpedo, who has a different typing, but still has the wonderful Speed Boost ability.
