I would swap Garchomp for Hydreigon because I see Gengar as a huge threat to the team as it has access to Taunt, Icy Wind, Shadow Ball and Sludge Bomb.
Aegislash has Shadow sneak but 8 Atk Aegislash-Blade Shadow Sneak vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Gengar: 98-116 (72.5 - 85.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO vs 252 SpA Gengar Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Aegislash-Blade: 162-192 (97 - 114.9%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO.
Aegislash is the only counter to Gengar which is a problem plus Gardevoir is the only special attacker so Intimidate/Burn will rekt the team seeing how Lando-T and Rotom-Wash are not going away anytime soon.
Even though Tailwind is the key to having this team work, Max speed Jolly Mega-Metagross, Garchomp and Talonflame do not need Tailwind boost and the opposing team just needs to survive hits and OHKO. I have not done much calcuations but I think Mega-Metagross and Gardevoir will stick around because they need to get 2OHKO or more like they will.
I think you need a fighting-type because Bisharp will run over this team with Sucker Punch and Iron Head. Also Paralysis will make everything almost useless. Otherwise, a very decent offensive team but I would change it to counter these threats.
