Sweet Jesus.
You didn't mention if this is a cart or showdown team so I will have to refer to both.

First of all you ought to fix your mon's natures. Its just silly to invest EVs into a stat and drop it with a hindering nature.
Typhlosion should not be timid if you are investing in attack. If you need to run it mixed you should sacrifice def or spd.
Likewise with Greninja, you invest 252 into speed but just throw away 10% of the stat with a hindering nature. Gren's nature also boosts it's awful defense stat, greninja isn't tanking anything.
Floatzel also has this problem. If surf is important to the set you shouldn't be dropping is damage by 10%.

I know that typhlosion has a dry movepool, but you can do better.
You should switch out defense curl for anything else. Moves that boost only one stat by only one stage are never worth the turn they take to use, and defensive typhlosion is just silly. I would suggest running a physical fire move. Your only stab is eruption so I would suggest flare blitz, flame charge, or even flame wheel. Rollout just isn't a good move, I would replace it with EQ or rock slide. The leftovers aren't doing it much good ether.

Flygon needs to be running u-turn, even moreso because this is a choice set. If possible it should be running defog too. Ditch fly. Two-turn attacks give your opponent a practically free switch-in.

I'm not sure what to say about Floatzel, there is probably a better item you you could switcheroo, like a scarf maybe. I wouldn't run surf. Ice punch would be best, brick break could or aqua jet work otherwise. Floatzel's spa isn't much, so scald imo is a better special move than surf because your damage is going to suck but at you get a secondary effect.

I would suggest running return over double-edge on sawsbuck, imo bulky mons shouldn't using recoil moves if they don't have too.

Greninja and Nidoking look fine.

If this a showdown team I would suggest replacing Greninja with a lower-than-OU mon so you can play this team in UU. I don't know much about the UU meta but I'm sure you will have more success there than in OU.
As it at the moment your entire team is speedy or bulky offense so I would suggest incorporating some kind of bulky support.
I don't explicitly ask people to replace mons on their team, but if you want to run this in any serious way you ought to consider it.

Also there is already a team advice thread right here:

He's right you autistic 9 yearold
Your team is shit, just start over completely.
If your team looks like that you might as well just play ubers.

Thank you very much, and sorry about being so shit.

Also is this a good replacement for Greninja?

Its fine.
Not a whole lot we could do make your team good without starting from scratch.
