You can use Impish instead of Relaxed on Groudon; also, Double Dancer Don needs a second move instead of Stealth Rock to be effective. :P

Sucker Punch doesn't have much Merit for Scarfed Yveltal; a coverage move would be better. :P

Marshadow isn't great with a Focus Sash; a Life Orb or Choice Band will guarantee more KOs and is more re-usable. :P
Use marshadium z
Using two Z-Crystals is ill advised on a team, especially since they're using Ultra Necrozma.

Also, the lack of speed investment on Necrozma is concerning since it's liable to getting outsped by a lot of threats in the meta after Ultra Burst. Perhaps it might be better to run a different item on it?
Choice Band is fine but I personally prefer Life Orb to prevent Marshadow from being locked to a move on a threat it can't hit.

Those are just my thoughts

I prefer Arceus-Normal because it gets Extreme Speed STAB. Shadow Claw for Ghost types that Extreme Speed can't hit. This set for Arceus has pulled me through in tight pinches because of Extreme Speed's priority.

Groudon-Primal Is #1 in Ubers, though I think I use it differently than everyone else. I chose Earthquake(100 Accuracy) over Precipice Blades(85 Accuracy) because of Accuracy. I have been screwed over many times, and I prefer Accuracy every time. But, if you want power, Groudon get's access to Hone Claws. Thunder Punch for the 4x weakness to Water(though Fire Punch is STAB, and Iron Head for Xerneas's Geomancy sweep.

A super effective iron head is weaker than a neutrally effective precipice blades and only 1/15 stronger than a neutrally effective earthquake. It's usually useless and should probably be replaced with stealth rock or rock polish.
