I don't know why I started doubting myself about my main team. I mean, I trained EVERYWHERE in Sinno. Iron Island, Eterna Forest, vast oceans, freezing cold blizzards, fought the eliet four dozens of times,and beaten my friends dozens of times.(How I got my name)

If you want a really quick fix for your team, you can do this.

You have so many same-type attack moves on your pokemon. Flamethrower AND Blast Burn, Surf AND Waterfall. You don't want that at all - chop and change your movesets around so you have some different type moves. Like Infernape, for instance, would probably want Flamethower and Focus Blast for sure. And I believe he can get Grass Knot as well, and you can round off that set with Nasty Plot to give your special moves a boost.

That set is more of a rough example, but its INFINITELY better than what you have. Floatzel, Staraptor, Luxray... They have THREE moves of the same type. What if Luxray comes up against a ground-type, for instance? He's screwed. What if Floatzel finds another Water-type? He has no move to beat him. What if Staraptor finds a rock-type? He lacks his almost signature move for a Flying-type in Close Combat, so he won't be able to defeat it.

Which is why people would cry at the sight of four grass moves on Roserade. Double check the sticky in here, basics to a competitive team, and improve your movesets in this way. If you want a really good team, you'll want to rebreed them all for some much better natures. Most hinder you at the moment - and you'll want to EV train them as well. What I've outlined here is a half-decent short-term fix.

To be fair, you did ask for our help. And also - Swapping moves around won't take long at all, and completely retraining to competitive standards would take two weeks tops.

They don't need to be level 100 either - Many battling facilities such as wifi will automatically raise/lower your levels to 50 or 100.
