Here is my team right now:

Feraligatr
Lvl 56
Surf
Ice Fang

Hydro Cannon

Ampharos
Lvl 56
Thunder
Discharge
Strength
Thunderpunch

Arcanine
Lvl 56
Extremespeed
Flame Wheel
Fire Blast
Iron Tail

Scizor
Lvl 56

Night Slash

I'm currently in Celadon City about to face Erika. Now I've been looking at other teams, and I've seen A LOT of Gengars. Should I add one to my team? Or any other pokemon for that matter? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

If you are keeping hydro cannon, replace feraligatr's surf with waterfall. And don't teach bad hms to main team pokemon. Replace Scizor's hm moves with swordsdance and bullet punch. Other than that, it's a great team.

Feraligator@Leftovers
Adamant
-Waterfall
-Ice Punch
-Earthquake
-Dragon Dance

Dragonite@Life Orb
Adamant
-Dragon Dance
-Earthquake
-Roost
-Dragon Claw

Gengar@Life Orb
Timid
-Shadow Ball
-Focus Blast
-HP (fire)
-Energy Ball

You have a small quake edge weakness. Rock-2/6 and ground-3/6 which totals to 5/6
I don't think that it's that big a deal but you should wach out a bit. I do think that gengar would be a good idea for this team.

Thanks man.If you think I should add a Genegar, who should I drop? Also, sorry but what is HP fire? Sorry for being so naive, just never heard of that.

You could use another special sweeper, although not necessarily Gengar.

Gengar @ Modest/Timid
~Levitate
-Shadow Ball
-Focus Blast
-Energy Ball
-Hypnosis

Thanks. But again, who should I get rid of for Gengar?

Probably Nidoking, its the weakest Physical sweeper you have.

Just so you know, HP means Hidden Power and Fire was the type it should be. It's okay, I only recently knew what that meant, too!
