    Any suggestions or feedback would be appreciated.
    FYI I will most likely be using this team for single or triple battles.
     
    A quick question: is this for Battle Spot, or for full-on competitive battling?
     
    I would say it's for battle spot, since that's what I have used it for. It would be nice to do full-on competitive battling tho.

    Blaziken, Aegislash, Mega Kangaskhan, and Greninja are Uber Pokemon; they can't be used in OU teams. OU is the standard environment. Uber is a ban list for the Pokemon that are too good for OU and is a tier within itself as well.

    If this team is for Battle Spot:

    Brave Bird doesn't let Blaziken do anything noteworthy. Muscle Band's boost isn't high enough to make it worth using. Here's a better take on Blaziken:
    -Flare Blitz
    -High Jump Kick/Low Kick
    -Knock Off/Stone Edge/Protect
    -Swords Dance/Protect
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 SDef/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Blazikenite
    Ability: Speed Boost

    The Swords Dance + King's Shield combination is easy to play around against experienced players, as on the turn you use King's Shield, Aegislash may risk getting burned or being set up on. Here are better takes:
    -Shadow Ball
    -Shadow Sneak/Sacred Sword
    -Iron Head/Flash Cannon/Sacred Sword
    -King's Shield
    Nature: Quiet
    EVs: 244 HP/12 Def/252 SAtk
    Item: Leftovers/Weakness Policy

    or
    -Substitute
    -Toxic
    -King's Shield
    -Shadow Ball/Flash Cannon
    Nature: Modest/Timid
    EVs: 252 HP/252 SAtk/4 SDef (Modest) or 252 HP/4 SDef/252 Spe (Timid)
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Iron Head/Shadow Claw
    -Shadow Sneak
    -Sacred Sword
    -King's Shield
    Nature: Adamant/Brave
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef
    Item: Life Orb/Leftovers/Weakness Policy

    Greninja really needs Gunk Shot. In X/Y, it struggled to deal with healthy Fairy Pokemon with Hydro Pump alone, and in OR/AS, it gained Gunk Shot as an extra coverage move for Fairies:
    -Hydro Pump/Low Kick
    -Ice Beam
    -Gunk Shot
    -Dark Pulse/Grass Knot/Hidden Power (Fire)
    Nature: Naive
    EVs: 40 HP/216 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Protean

    If this is for standard play:

    Remove Blaziken, Greninja, Aegislash, and Mega Kangaskhan. They're Ubers as I already mentioned. Substitutes are Infernape, Azumarill, Feraligatr, Wash Rotom, and Diggersby. Include Jirachi and Therian forme Landorus, as neither are Ubers

    Infernape:
    -Fire Blast/Flare Blitz
    -Close Combat
    -Gunk Shot

    Thanks for updating me on the meta. I haven't payed any attention to the list of ubers. You are very detailed and informative in the information you presented me. Looks like I'll have a lot of tinkering to do, especially if I want to be in the competitive scene. Btw you didn't say anything about Thundurus-I. Is he viable in the meta or is landorus better?

    Incarnate Thundurus is still viable, yes. Prankster Thunder Waves are a useful thing to have.
