    Half your team is weak to Fighting, and that's not a good thing. If I were you, I'd take out Snorlax. Scizor is a better fit on the team because it forms a Volt-turn core with Manectric:
    -U-turn
    -Bullet Punch
    -Superpower
    -Pursuit/Knock Off
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 248 HP/252 Atk/8 SDef
    Item: Choice Band
    Ability: Technician

    I'd use Gyro Ball over Power Whip or Protect, tbh.

    Talonflame can use an EV spread of 48 HP/252 Atk/208 Spe to outspeed Timid/Jolly base 120s.
