Sorry dude, this team is kind of awful. The members have no synergy, coverage and the physical:special split is awful. It seems like Manectric was slapped on to try to patch up the huge weakness you have to Electric types with only 1 other immunity and no resistances, which means once Manectric is dealt with (quite easily due to lack of bulk) Electric-types have a field day. It also gets hard walled by common Pokemon like Amoonguss and Cresselia, as well as Ferrothorn.
And for the other team, the fact that you even suggest using Hippowdon suggest you don't know anything about the format, as well as pairing Klefki up with 4 ground types (the fact that you have 4 ground types is worrying enough) which love to spam EQ just suggests you haven't thought it through.
I'm sorry if I sounded harsh, but I suggest getting more familiar with the VGC format before making teams for others.
