Just brick break against Sandslash to keep veil from going up- if it does, you lose. Zard lives the Icicle Crash, so if you don't flinch you're fine.
Klefki is a clean one-shot with Garchomp's Earth Plate boosted Dig. It's pretty physically bulky, so you're probably going to want 252+ Attack with a good IV.
Scizor is easily handled by Turtonator. I did get stupid good luck against it between the quick claw proc, burn, and crit, but all of that is unnecessary. The +1 defense that you get from Shell Armor because of the field allows you to live a +2 Bullet Punch and you should be able to beat it pretty easily with flamethrower.
Excadrill is a bit interesting- Kingdra has to be slower than Excadrill for this strategy to work. Enter with a seed to get yourself King's Shield, and then because Excadrill will be faster, it's Sandstorm will be used first- then your Rain Dance goes second, activating your Swift Swim and letting you safely one-shot with Surf.
Empoleon is the same as Klefki.
Aegislash is the one mon that kept outright ending my runs- it has a tendency to just get to +6 and one-shot you. Chipping it with Flygon (Either 2 Earthquakes or a single +1 Earthquake will be enough to) is mandatory, then you have to finish it off with Dig. Pulling Dig off on a turn that it uses King's Shield basically guarantees the win- Garchomp is faster, so it can't hit you by using Sacred Sword, and Shadow Sneak is priority, so that can't hit you either. The invulnerability afforded to you by Dig is what makes this battle possible.
