I was bored, so I went over the entire thing:
-Sandslash should have Aerial Ace as an option for the last slot, for killing Breloom/Heracross. I mean, it's not like Brick Break is really going to be doing anything.
-Mr. Mime should have some mention of Encore
-Girafarig should have Reflect/Light Screen/Thunder Wave/Aglity/Wish as other options
-Steelix should have Screech as an option
-Swalot should have Encore as an option

you seem to have forgotten Mix Nidoqueen.

Here's a suggestions for Metagross move-set form Metagross master/lover ;D :
Metagross@Leftovers[for staying longer] Or Lum berry [to heal status problems and with clear body, it's stats won't get lowered, so what will you do to annoy him XD]
Trait: Clear Body[there isn't any other options, and even if there was this is the best]
Nature: Adamant [+ATK, -SP.ATK]
Meteor Mash [a strong steel move that also gains a STAB bonus]
Earthquake[to cover fire, and many other types]
RockSlide [for Charizard/Ho-Oh/Skarmory [yea it has good def, but Metagross has goos attack, so one or two RS will KO skarm]
Aerial Ace[for earthquaking fighting types]

to tell you the truth, this isn't a very good set. if your gonna put all attacking moves on him, at least give him a choice band. AA isn't needed as STABed MM does more damage to fighters. RS isn't that good in-game because it's mainly for Zapdos.

Well it's good for me, and it didn't fail me, anyways there are other sets like the one above but insted of RS agility for it's speed problem, also there is this:
Meteor Mash
Earthquake
Shadow Ball/Sludge Bomb/Explosion
Agility
this is the set I use if I want speed AND KOing ghosts/hiting foes with the powerful SB that might poisen/ and explosion is a rare option but I use if I feel that i'm running out a stroong oppenet like Houndoom with Flamethrower after a sunny day.
And it'd be holding the same either Lum berry OR Leftovers.
 
I am sure that the Gross' that Airlock listed are fine.

Stalkchamp is needed, yeah.

Some more things:
-Selfdestruct Mewtwo
-Counter Politoed
-Counter Quagsire
-Seldestruct Qwilfish
-Sludge Bomb>Crunch on physical Houndoom. Crunch+Shadow Ball is really redundant and Howl should be boosting something other than Shadow Ball.

I advise this Sneasel moveset:
Sneasel Moveset
Item: Shell Bell/Leftovers
Nature: Adamant

Attacks:
Brick Break
Aerial Ace/Double Team
Swords Dance
Slash

EVS:
Max out EVS in attack and defense

Strategy using Sneasel:
Start with swords dance a couple of times. If your sneasel knows double team throw in a couple of those too. Then attack with slash or brick break. Use Aerial Ace if it is strong against the pokemon you're fighting. If not I advise the other ones. I do not advise using special attacks with sneasel.

triple post due to lag, and my set so far has not lost
 
GameFreak hates Sneasel. =(

Breloom @ Leftovers
-Spore
-Substitute
-Leech Seed
-Focus Punch/Sky Uppercut

Generally a fun alternative. Sky Uppercut if your opponent keeps breaking your Subs.

Heracross @ Leftovers
-Megahorn
-Rock Slide
-Rest
-Sleep Talk

Hariyama @ Leftovers
-Cross Chop
-Rock Slide
-Rest
-Sleep Talk

Some nice Guts sleep Talkers.


Why isn't Swords Dance mentioned on the first Rhydon set?

Anyway, I think Boah deserves a mention since it can rip through (stallish) teams, even though you need a 31 HP IV and it's a bit overspecalized ingame.

Tbh, I'd rather use a different mix set with Rock Slide and three Special moves.

I use this Cradily all the time and it's great for me. It's the big healer of the team in my Sapphire:

Cradily@Leftovers

-Recover
-Giga Drain
-Sludge Bomb
