Mamoswine@Focus Sash
Oblivious/Thick Fat
252 Attack 252 Speed 4 HP
Jolly
-Stealth Rocks
-Earthquake
-Icicle Crash
-Ice Shard
Mamoswine here is the lead of my team. Mamoswine will usually set up SR, but in some cases, the attacks will be used.


Talonflame@Life Orb
Gale Wings
252 Attack 252 Speed 4 HP
Jolly
-Flare Blitz
-Brave Bird
-Roost
-Swords Dance
This is my Talonflame. Everything is self-explanatory.


Breloom@Expert Belt
Technician
252 Attack 252 Speed 4 Sp. Defense
Adamant
-Mach Punch
-Spore
-Seed Bomb
-Drain Punch
This wasn't very well planned out when I built this here. Anyways, Mach. Punch is STAB along with Drain Punch and Seed Bomb. Spore is Sleep induce.


Blastoise@Blastoisite
252 Sp. Attack 184 HP 70 Speed
Modest
-Aura Sphere
-Hydro Pump
-Dark Pulse
-Rapid Spin
Behold! The coverage and Mega of my team, Blastoise! Hydro Pump is. STAB, Dark Pulse and Aura Sphere are coverage, and the all-mighty Rapid Spin is the Rock-Ridder!


Gengar@Black Sludge
Levitate
252 Sp. Attack 252 Speed 4 Sp. Defense
Timid
-Substitute
-Will-O-Wisp
-Shadow Ball
-Sludge Bomb
Pretty self explanatory. Again.

Sorry for the small descriptions. Anyways, now for my last Pokemon, what should I add? I'm thinking of a Pokemon that resist Gengar's weaknesses, and is Specially Offensive Tank.

Pretty good team there. Let me suggest a few changes:

Mamoswine - Perfect.

Talonflame - Talonflame is too frail to run this set, in my opinion. If I were you, here's what set I would have:

Talonflame @ Choice Band
Ability: Gale Wings
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd (or invest more in Speed if you want; HP EVs are good though for taking recoil)
Adamant Nature
- Brave Bird
- Flare Blitz
- U-turn
- Steel Wing

Swords Dance and Roost aren't very good choices for something as frail as Talonflame. If you choose to do the set I recommend, make Talonflame your lead and then set up SR with Mamoswine after he faints.

Breloom - Having an Expert Belt honestly isn't that good of a choice if you're only running two Attack types. Consider changing the item to a Big Root or a Fist Plate. It looks good besides that.

Blastoise - Perfect, except Hydro Pump is lacking in accuracy. Water Pulse would be better for this place since it gets the same power as Surf with the ability's boost, and it can cause confusion.

Gengar - If I were you I'd trade Substitute for Destiny Bond and give Gengar a Focus Sash to play it safe. That way, it can either sweep or reliably set up a burn and/or take something down with it. And since you already have a status-inflicting move, switch Sludge Bomb with Sludge wave for added power.

Last Pokemon - If you'd like a Pokemon that resists Gengar's weaknesses, get a Dark-type. They resist Psychic, Ghost, and Dark, and are weak to Gengar's resistances: Fighting, Bug, and Fairy. If you are looking for a tank, choose Umbreon.
If you want something specially offesnsive, choose Zoroark. (Zoroark is especially good to use if Gengar is last in your party. That way, your opponent will try to use super effective moves and end up failing.)
If you want a mixture of the two, choose Hydreigon. It has a great movepool, and its stats let it hit with lots of power and take some hits as well.

So there's my ideas on how you could improve the team. If you have questions (or anything else), please leave a comment and I'll do my best to get back to you. Hope I helped!

EDIT: I went to bed before I finished making this answer, and while I was asleep I guess someone else rated it. I guess you're just lucky enough to have multiple perspectives on the team. :D

For Breloom, instead of Mach Punch, people commonly use the Focus Punch and Spore combo, as Focus Punch can be used when the other pokemon is asleep.

Mamoswine is PERFECT.

I don't like Talonflame, but the way in which you use it is very good.

Breloom is good, but see the mentioned above.

Gengar could use Sludge Wave, which has more power than sludge bomb.

For the last pokemon, I suggest one that can use multiple status and stat changing moves, like Dusknoir or Sigilyph or Scolipede.

Just a suggestion. You don't have to change it. Its an overall good team.
