Mega-Audino with regenerator makes it basically the perfect cleric, able to wish pass much more reliably. And with Moonblast, it gets that extra little bit of oompf it might sometimes need. But out of the two, regen definitely makes much more huge of an impact. Being able to heal itself at the same time it heals others is very nice, and it doesnt have to risk wishing at low health time to time. And the offensive sets can heal themselves reliably! To be completely fair, it wouldn't probably stay in the tier if it gets Regenerator.
Poison touch Garbodor wouldn't make much of a difference. At the moment, Aftermath + Rocky Helmet is a really cool combo that whittles down physical attackers. All poison touch does is add a poisoning chance on moves that make contact. But it doesn't do much with it using moves like drain punch against steel types or even Focus Blast, which doesn't make contact at all. I suppose the best you could get out of it is getting a PSN on Regirock and Rhydon, but they already risk it switching into a Gunk Shot, and get poisoned by toxic spikes too if they are on the field.
Flash Fire Pyroar doesn't make sense to me personally, but it would make Pyroar able to pivot into other fire-types much easier, as it's quite frail to do it otherwise. Having a nice normal stab alongside with a boosted Fire Blast makes it a threat when gaining the position. There arent many things that safely switch into Pyroar after that.
Regirock with Solid rock sounds pretty insane. Given it's insanely bulky already, able to safely stay in on some super effective moves to Thunder Wave for example, it would be very tough to break down. It also avoids 2hko from Tauros, allowing it to go fully specially defensive, making it even more tough to bop with coverage moves by the mons it switches in on. It would also give it a needed niche over Rhydon and Steelix as a stealth rocker.
Guts Skuntank deals with ghosts. Done. And it gets a nice attack boost to justify the physical set, making it a bit more threatening to switch into.
Nominating Rotom-Fan + Hurricane. I know, I know, sounds very boring, and it is. But the point is to give it a stronger flying stab, and then there is the added fact that all the other Rotoms bar regular Rotom learn a high power high miss chance move. It would only be reasonable :D
