Veteran newbie ^_^
Swampert
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-EQ
-Rest

Sceptile - Leech Seed and Substitute over the last two. Thunderpunch over Dragon Claw perhaps (if you have access to it, that is).

Blaziken
-Flamethrower
-Sky Uppercut/Brick Break
-Swords Dance
-Rock Slide

Espeon
-Psychic
-Calm Mind
-Baton Pass
-Bite/Substitute

Espeon is better in-game IMO than Umbreon

Hm...

I think Focus Punching Swamperts are pretty Affective...

Swampert
Earthquake
Substitute
Focus Punch
Surf/Rest/Rock Slide

In game a Special Sweeping Espeon would be more effective...

Bite
Psychic
Calm Mind
HP Ice (said Ice because you'll need an Ice move for the elite 4...)

Substitute and Focus Punch aren't needed on Swampert and its best to go with Surf and Ice Beam.

I'd rather Baton Pass Calm Minds to Swampert/Sceptile.

Fear the Deer
5th Pokemon

Crobat
Jolly Nature
Item:undecided
Attacks:
Fly
Poison Fang
Mean Look
Sludge Bomb

Aerial Ace
Steel Wing
Shadow Ball
Sludge Bomb

Adamant for Crobat since ingame there's very little chance you're going to meet something that's going to outrun you (aka Jolteon and Aerodactyl).

I'd use Adamant since Crobat needs the power and its going to outrun 99% of ingame pokemon anyway.

Edit: Shouldn't have waited so long. ;/
 

yazzel

fear the elements!!!
crobat:adamant nature/item:lefties or choice band
Attacks
sludge bomb
aerial ace

Also I thought of the next pokemon:

Donphan, raised from Lv.5
??? Nature(Not hatched)

Earthquake
Rollout
???
???
 

Ludakrix

Legen-waitforit-dary

Rhydon @ Lefties
Rock Head
Adamant Nature (+ Atk, - Sp. Atk)

Rock Slide (FR/LG move tutor at the end of rock tunnel, or BF)
Earthquake
Megahorn (good for the dark types)

Baton Pass isnt as necessary in-game as it is in competitive battles.

-Anyway...I suggest a Skarmory for another member.
-Try Exploud! Its one of the most useful pokes ingame because it practically learns everything.
 

Ludakrix

Legen-waitforit-dary
He has crobat, and doesnt need Skar.

Exploud isnt very good, the only elemental moves it learns are frie moves, and this guy already has a blaziken. Plus i would say Overheat instead of Flamethrower if your using a physical sweeper set.
 

Rudibaker

^^Pure Genius
Hm...

Oohh...

Use Skarmory instead then :)

And by the way Exploud can use Ice Beam and Solarbeam and...well check it out in the pokedex
 

Frost Nova

The predator awaits.
You've gotta be kidding me. Donphan's good, dammit. :)

Donphan@lefties
Impish Nature
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Rest
- Counter

Great physical wall, just don't leave it in against special pokemon.
