hey for emboar i would do
flair blitz
hammer arm
wild charge
scald

Carracosta
-Shell Break
-Aqua Jet/Waterfall
-Rock Slide/Stone Edge
-Earthquake

Shell Break is a crazy move (+2 Atk, SpA and Spe, -1 Def and SpD). Aqua Jet is probably the better of the two water type moves due to priority. QuakeSlide combo for super coverage.

or

Carracosta @Muscle Band
Adamant Nature
Solid Rock
-Curse
-Earthquake
-aqua jet
-Rock Slide

Simisage
-Seed Bomb
-Brick Break
-Rock Slide
-Crunch/Shadow Claw
Rock Slide covers four of Simisage's five weaknesses. Crunch is more powerful but you must wait until level 41 as a Pansage. Shadow Claw allows you to evolve as early as lvl 22. Crunch and Shadow claw get the same supereffective's anyway.



hope this helps
 
Emboar @ Charcoal
Adamant
Blaze
- Flamethrower
- Focus Blast
- Bulk Up
- Wild Charge

The "boost power" items for specific attack types are basically worthless. Get rid of them and use something else for EVERYONE on your team. Additionally, Emboar is really not the best for special attacks (especially with Adamant -- what?!), so give it something to replace Flamethrower and Focus Blast. I mean, I usually don't like Focus Blast anyway.

Simisage @ ??
Rash
Gluttony
- Grass knot
- Crunch
- Dig
- Seed Bomb

Dig is probably not the best choice. Take off Grass Knot and use Energy Ball instead of Seed Bomb (probably). Possibly replace Knot with Rock Slide? I dunno, but take off Grass Knot for better coverage. Actually, try and get one with a nature that's beneficial for Attack and go with a similar moveset to this.

Volcarona @ SilverPowder
Naive
Flame Body
- Psychic
- Quiver Dance
- Heat Wave
- Bug Buzz

Two fire-types on one team is not a great choice, but I'll roll with it, since they're very different fire types. Naive is a very middle-of-the-road nature for Volcarona. I also personally prefer Fiery Dance to Heat Wave, but that one's up to you.

Carracosta @ Leftovers
Brave
Sturdy
- Surf
- Hydro Pump
- Stone Edge
- Shell Smash

Brave is not a great nature for Carracosta anyway, and certainly not the way you have him set up. Rebuild his attacks to include more physicals and use Adamant nature. He also definitely doesn't need both Surf and Hydro Pump. I'd suggest either Aqua Jet or Waterfall (though my preference is heavily with Aqua Jet here since Carracosta is really freaking slow). Earthquake is also good. Maybe replace Shell Smash with Curse just to make him a little more brutal.

Excadrill @ Soft Sand
Impish
Sand Rush
- Rock Slide
- EarthQuake
- Swords Dance
- Sandstorm/ ?

Take advantage of Mr. D's big Attack stat by using the Adamant nature. I also would recommend Sandstorm be removed for X-Scissor. Forget about trying to get STAB with Excadrill, by the way; his Steel-type moves suck.

Mandibuzz @ ?
Adamant
Big Pecks
- Dark Pulse
- Whirlwind
- Toxic
- Fly

That nature with those moves? Hell no. Fly is somewhat functional, but you could get a better Flying move than that. Mandibuzz doesn't have many good Dark-type physical attacks... we'll come back to that. Whirlwind is just not very useful. I wonder if Steel Wing could work for Mandibuzz if you were to breed it on? I doubt it, but... Maybe set it up as Rash to keep Dark Pulse.

Well, one of my friends has a suggestion:
Mandibuzz @ Leftovers
Big Pecks
Modest
- Substitute
- Nasty Plot
- Air Slash
- Dark Pulse

I'm just going to go with that because I have no freakin' clue how to do this. Just get someone to trade you a Braviary.
