Milotic and Suicine provide the same role for a team, it's unessesary to have both on one team.

This team lacks adequate speed control, status moves or counters to status moves and inadequate coverage moves.
What are the 240 speed EVs on Landorus trying to outspeed. If not running the scarfed variant, it would only make sense to boost it with tailwind or have another form of speed control to compensate for the speed boost necessary to make Landorus effective.
Also Yache berry may save you one turn but unless you removed the threat, you're in serious trouble.
Investing all EVs into Def for Sylveon doesn't really capitalize or maximize on the amount of bulk it can obtain. Don't be afraid to be more diverse with defensive EV spreads. I suggest investing a few speed EVs into Sylveon to speed creep other Sylveon. Most Sylveon run between 0-48 Speed EVs when used outside of Tailwind teams.
Also you don't have any Fairy resistances on your team other than Heatran but all Heatran does is give you more Fighting weaknesses and other than Sylveon, you don't have a good enough answer to that.
This is the wrong way to run bulky Kangaskhan (yes I'm telling you this). First off, if you want to go for more bulk, you need to invest a little less into Attack and HP and make the spread more diverse maximize bulk. Facade is too situational. By running Power up Punch over Facade, you get to the attack stage which neutralizes the effect from burns plus it is less contingent to status moves and increases the overall damage output of Kangaskhan. I suggest running Fake Out, Return, Power Up Punch and Sucker Punch.
Invest more into bulk than into offenses with Milotic. Milotic has the Competitive ability to rely on hence you don't need to invest more than around 60-144 SpAtk EVs to be effective support. Plus Milotic is the only Pokemon on your team with a speed controlling move so it needs to stay around longer.
