The Metagross EV spread was taken from Black117. The EV spread is meant to do the following (copy and pasted from his thread):
-Outspeed neutral base 100 Pokemon like Mega Kangaskhan
-Outspeed positive base 85 and 86 Pokemon like Suicune, Heracross, Rotom-A
-Takes one unboosted Shadow Ball from positive special attack Aegislash
-Takes one Life Orb Sucker Punch from Adamant Bisharp
For Togekiss, here are the reasons for the EV spread (taken from Positron38):
Damage Calculations: Defensive
252+ Atk Landorus-T Stone Edge vs. 252 HP / 192 Def Togekiss: 250-296 (66.8 - 79.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO (You don't really need the defense investment because at 0 or 252 Def, it will most likely be just a 2HKO from Landorus-T, unless it's a crit. I just put it there to survive a crit from Rock Slide Tongue.)
252+ Atk Landorus-T Stone Edge vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Togekiss: 272-320 (72.7 - 85.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252+ Atk Landorus-T Rock Slide vs. 252 HP / 192 Def Togekiss on a critical hit: 282-332 (75.4 - 88.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252+ Atk Life Orb Bisharp Iron Head vs. 252 HP / 192 Def Togekiss: 312-369 (83.4 - 98.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO (Yes, if you're up against a life orb 252 atk Bisharp, it will take 2 hits to KO. That's pretty kewl
252+ SpA Aegislash-Shield Flash Cannon vs. 252 HP / 44+ SpD Togekiss: 32-42 (8.5 - 11.2%) -- possible 9HKO (This is amazing. Even at 44 SpD ivenstment, it will still take at least 9 hits of Flash Cannon for it to KO Togekiss.)
252+ Atk Aerilate Mega Salamence Double-Edge vs. 252 HP / 192 Def Togekiss: 262-309 (70 - 82.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Damage Caculations: Offensive
0 SpA Togekiss Dazzling Gleam vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mega Salamence: 228-270 (68.6 - 81.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
0 SpA Togekiss Dazzling Gleam vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Bisharp: 139-165 (51.1 - 60.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
As for the Milotic, here's the EV spread reasons (posted by Eeveeli):

252 SpA Rotom-Wash Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 64 SpD Assault Vest Milotic: 72-86 (35.6 - 42.5%)
I agree with your points about the Hydreigon. I'll make the necessary changes! And I'm totally down to battle sometime.
