You've got a pretty glaring weakness to rock here. Stone Edge users that resist Extremespeed will tear through everything but Empoleon, and Empoleon isn't really the greatest wall ever. Setup sweepers might give you a bit of trouble, since your only status inflicter is Togekiss, which falls quickly to physical attacks.

Run Justified over Super Luck; Absol can barely eat a resisted hit, but the attack boost could help you. Consider Fire Blast over Psycho Cut; Mega Absol has base 110 special attack, and it can be a good way around common Steel-type walls that would otherwise be soft counters.

Talonflame should probably be Adamant; Speed isn't very important when you have priority.

Dragonite is similar. I prefer to run 252+ Attack / 252 HP / 4 Speed; you will get outsped, but maximum HP investment allows you to set up in front of Greninja, then OHKO after an Ice Beam.

Descriptions would help under each Pokemon to tell us why you've chosen said set, rather than writing a line at the end but uh.

Rock/Fighting/Ice are your main weaknesses here, Rock more than anything, which can be a problem since Rock moves are one of the most common movetypes nowadays. As are Fighting and well.. Ice honestly. Fighting not so much but still, you can never be sure.

I've seen Fire Blast variants of Absol, so you might want to try that since Absol has a killer base special attack, which allows it to neutralize things such as Ferrothorn, and even lets it have a crack at Mawile before it Mega-Evolves.

And yeah, as said above, Justified over Super Luck to get the +1 if a Dark move hits it.

Gale Wings give Flying moves a +1 priority, so that means you go first when you use Brave Bird, and any other Flying type move which makes Talonflame a rather reliable asset to you and a pain in the ass for others, rather hard hitter and can put up a fight against Excadrill from what I've seen. Maybe instead of Natural Gift, give it U-Turn?

This team's a mixture of OU and other tiers, but I'm sure if you take care of that impending Rock weakness, you should be okay.
