Comments

Marowak and Typhlosion don't do much other than stacking weaknesses with the team. Replace them with Torkoal and Infernape. Replace Volcanion's hidden power with earth power to cover electric and poison. Give Heatran 4 HP/252 SpA/252 Spe timid for more power. Replace protect with taunt to prevent stuff like hazards and setup sweepers. Give Victini a choice scarf to make it better at revenge-killing, and 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe jolly to take advantage of u-turn, v-create, and burn immunity. Teach it v-create, u-turn, bolt strike, and zen headbutt.

Run a Choice Scarf Infernape somewhere in there
Choice Scarf Nihilego and Terrakion can easily overwhelm this team as he eases up the rock weaknesses along with Heatran.

You already have Volcanion and Charizard Y as special attackers so I don't typlosion adds much
For Charizard Y you want to add either Dragon Pulse or Focus blast to ease against threats like Latios, Garchomp and Tyranitar

Torkoal is another good option as a drought setup
Plus he can rapid spin away rocks, and can be a good stealth rocks lead

Thanks so much, @sumwun! What do I make Infernape - Scarf, Band, or Specs?

Like Bchen said, I'm pretty sure choice scarf is the best item for Infernape on fire teams.
