Erm... Without a Poison-type Pokemon or a Rapin Spinner, your team is lying pretty prone to all entry hazards. Infernape and Ninetales hate Stealth Rock while Spikes hurts all six members of your team. Toxic Spikes specifically will put on some hurt with only Durant escaping its thorny death.

Roserade is a pretty cool option. It hits harder than Lilligant and can absorb Toxic Spikes. Venusaur can abuse the sunlight as well while performing a similar duty. Other options include Nidoking, Nidoqueen, and Drapion. Forretress is an obvious option for being available to spin away those entry hazards, despite its glaring weakness under sunlight.

I really like the core of your team a lot and love that you're using some highly successful underused sets. My only piece of advice at the moment is to be either be wary of opponents who attempt to set up or bring in one of the above options.
