unfezant Adamant nature big pecks Return toxic Steel Wing
fly
Return does more damage than Quick Attack. Steel Wing so you're not walled by Rock-types. Adamant nature because Unfezant needs its speed to not be lowered.
Go with Modest as your nature. If you want to run Substitute, run Charge Beam > Volt Switch, as Sub + Charge Beam can be used for boosting.
lucario Mild nature inner focus Aura Sphere Ice Punch
shadow ball Work Up
Mild nature so you can go mixed, as Jolly reduces your Special Attack. Aura Sphere + Shadow Ball get perfect coverage. Ground and Fighting get similar coverage, so go with Ice Punch > Dig to hit Ground-types, who are Lucario's biggest threat. Work Up to boost both offences.
serperior Adamant nature overgrow
coil
leaf blade Aqua Tail Outrage
No point using the Mild nature if you're not going mixed. Aqua Tail and Outrage for better coverage.
azumarill Adamant nature huge power Aqua Jet Return ice punch Brick Break / Superpower
Bold is a horrible nature for Azumarill as it lowers its more important stat: attack. Aqua Jet for a very strong priority move. Brick Break or Superpower for coverage, and Return for neutral coverage.
anyone suggest a change of moves? or is my pokemon choice so bad i have to make a completely new team?
Comments in bold.
You're going to want to rebreed all of your team to get better natures, since natures are important in things like the Subway and PWT (a 10% change to stats is quite significant). Also, you might want to list items and EVs if your Pokemon have any. Hope this helps.
Xerneas, the Midgard Pokemon. Xerneas's branch-like horns are reminiscent of those
of the tree it guards. Its mighty horns contain jewels of dazzling colours. It chomps at
upper branches by craning its neck toward the sky. Xerneas protects the horizontal world. credit // IGRMT Singles Rate Thread // BW2 Ingame Tiers // random text etc etc

ah well, currently i plan to breed each of my party Pokemon until i have the natures zhanton suggested, then i will try to EV train them (as in giving the held item for the stat making it first and switching out to one of my tougher ones), and during that time try getting each of the moves suggested.
also by the way, does anyone know how to find out exact EV values of a Pokemon? i don't feel like writing down stuff for each and every single encounter i fight.

I don't see a point in a Dragon move on a non-Dragon type. It won't hit as hard as an SE hit. Replace it with Substitute. It will prevent status, something that can hamper his walling ability.

nah, it's better to use Hasty/Naive to boost Speed, or Mild/Rash/Lonely/Naughty to boost offensive power. Zoroark is a glass cannon anyway, so it won't be bothered by its defense/sdef being lowered, since they're already low to begin with.
In fact, N's Zorua you got during the storyline is a good one for Mixed set, it has Hasty Nature, and fixed to possess all 30 IVs.
Zoroark
Hasty Nature
~Night Daze
~Flamethrower
~Focus Blast/Low Sweep/Hidden Power (due to the all 30 IVs, its Hidden Power is Fight with 70 base power)
~Return/U-Turn

i gotten n's zoura and already used it throughout the storyline, meaning my EV's on it aren't really that well spent
