I had given up breeding pokemon but I decided to rethink my team. I want to know if you guys approve of it and constructive criticism is very much welcome!

Charizard
Item: Charizardite X
Nature: Adamant
Ev: Maxed out attack, speed and health
Moves: Flare Blitz, Sky Drop, Dragon Rush, Shadow Claw

Scizor
Item: Expert Belt/Scizorite
Nature: Hasty :NO:
Ev: Maxed Attack, speed and special defense
Moves: X-Scizzor, Aerial Ace, Iron Head, Night Slash

Machamp
Item: Expert Belt/Metronome
Nature: Adamant (duh)
Ev: Maxed Attack, Special Defense and Health
Ability: No Guard (all attacks hit on both sides)
Moves: Thunder Punch, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Dynamic Punch

Greninja
Item: Wide Lens
Nature: Hasty
Ev: Maxed Special Attack, Speed and Special Defense
Moves: Ice Beam, Hydro Pump, Dark Pulse, Grass Knot

Honestly, no idea on what the other 2 should be. I hate using status moves, so no status suggestions.

You're gonna want Timid on Greninja. Hasty Greninja will get his life taken with an already arse defense. Also put choice specs or life orb on him for boosted attack. Is its ability Protean? Other than that, its an alright set-up

On a side note, you should use status moves. Status moves can make or break a battle and a team. Take for example player A sends out Bisharp. Player B sends out Sableye. Player B uses Wil-o-wisp and goes first since Prankster. Bisharp uses swords dance but its moot since his atk stat has been cut. Player B has been saved from a sucker punch sweep.

Would try belly drum charizard x. It's a beast in 2 turns

Jolly, max atk/speed

Belly drum
flame charge
dragon claw
roost

Everything is nearly one shot, bar potentially heatran.
