    I'm getting into competitive battling and I need some opinions on the team that I have currently.

    Blissey@Leftovers
    Ability: Natural Cure
    EVs: 252 Sp. Def./ 252 HP/6 Def.
    Nature: Bold

    Aromatherapy
    Wish
    Seismic Toss
    Toxic

    - Okay. So, Blissey is here to sponge special attacks and for general team support. She also checks Gengar's weakness to other Ghost types.

    Jolteon@Air Balloon
    Ability: Volt Absorb
    EVs: 252 Sp./ 252 Sp. Atk./ 6 Atk.
    Nature: Timid

    Volt Switch
    Shadow Ball
    Thunderbolt
    Hidden Power Ice

    - Jolteon's my special sweeper. He checks Vaporeon's weakness to Electric and with Volt Absorb, he heals himself with every Electric hit.

    Vaporeon@Leftovers
    Ability: Water Absorb
    EVs: 252 HP/ 180 Sp. Def./ 78 Sp. Atk.
    Nature: Bold

    Wish
    Surf
    Protect
    Ice Beam

    - Another special wall. She checks Arcanine's weakness to Water. She can also pass around Wishes to heal team members.

    Arcanine@Life Orb
    Ability: Intimidate
    EVs: 252 Atk./ 252 Sp./ 6 HP
    Nature: Adamant

    Flare Blitz
    ExtremeSpeed
    Morning Sun
    Wild Charge

    - Arcanine's my Physical Attacker. He checks Vaporeon's Grass weakness.

    Gengar@Leftovers
    Ability: Levitate
    EVs: 252 Sp./ 252 Sp. Atk./ 6 Sp. Def.
    Nature: Timid

    Substitute
    Disable
    Shadow Ball
    Focus Blast

    - Gengar's for crippling pokemon with Disable. He checks Arcanine's and Terrakion's weakness to Earthquake and I guess other ground type moves. He also checks Blissey's weakness to Fight.

    Terrakion@Rock Gem
    Ability: Justified
    EVs: 252 Atk./ 252 Sp./ 6 Def.
    Nature: Jolly

    Substitute
    Swords Dance
    Close Combat
    Stone Edge

    - Another Physical Sweeper. He's there to bust through walls....and stuff.

    ...Well that's it! If there's anyway I can better my team, please tell me! Oh and my team's going to be used in all tier battles except for Ubers. :D
     
    Well as it is, there isn't really much to stop strong dragons tbh. Latios can come in on Terrakion and Gengar w/o fear and kill them with Psyshock, Jolteon has bad defense so it can easily be defeated by basically any dragon (HP ice, sure, but you don't have Stealth Rock, and as a result Dragonite can come in without being hurt and yeaaah). Jirachi can fill the role of Blissey pretty well - with ghost attacks not really hurting it, it can take a hit from Latios - and if it has HP Fire then you'll know Gengar can kill it and can generally take hits from most other dragons and serve as a Pokemon to pass wishes AND give you SR support, so Dragonite isn't as annoying. It can't heal your team from status, but still, it can be really useful:

    Jirachi@Leftovers
    Serene Grace
    252 HP / 224 SpD / 32 Spe
    Calm
    - Iron Head
    - Body Slam / Thunder Wave
    - Wish
    - Stealth Rock
     
    Ah! Okay! Jeez...I hadn't thought about Latios or the other Dragons... >.< I'm dumb. But thank you so much! I'll try to fit Jirachi into my team to make it better! :D

    Move the Special Defense EVs to Defense on Blissey. What's the point of using a Bold nature when you're not investing in Defense?

    Give Jolteon Choice Specs; it could use the power.

    You can use Scald on Vaporeon for the burn chance.
