DPPt/HGSS Save Shiny Traded Torterra! *Gasp* *Pass out*

Help!

I recently got a shiny, level 100 Torterra off the GTS. Intially with the Torterra, I was going to trade it again, but *gasp* it was shiny! Now I want to keep it, but it has a terrible moveset. How can I save it?

(In addition, I bet the EVs are messed up.)

Species: Torterra

Nature: Docile

Item: Came with a Lum Berry

Moveset:

Protect
Leaf Storm
Wood Hammer
Earthquake

It's highest stat is Attack.
 
Torterra@ Something generic
Nature: Doesn't matter

-Seed Bomb / Wood Hammer
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge / Rock Slide
-Crunch / Superpower

Straight forward I believe.

First move is STAB. Pick between either No recoil or recoil and a Base 80 attack move versus a Base 120 attack move.

Earthquake is great with STAB.

The Rock attack deals with Flying-types.

Superpower slams Ice-types and gets some noteworthy coverage on some types.

Crunch is also a decent option for hitting Ghost-types and Psychic-types.
