Metagross: I would replace Rock Smash and Confusion with Meteor Mash and Earthquake.

Manetric: I would replace Bite with Iron Tail, since you might teach it Iron Tail.

Kyogre: I would replace Body Slam with Thunder, since you are going to teach it Thunder.

Aggron: I would replace Cut with Earthquake.

Swampert: Pretty good moveset in my opinion.

Salamence: I would replace Ember and Dragon Breath with Flamethrower and Dragon Claw.

I hope I helped! :)

Petaya Berry for Manectric, and make sure its HP is divisible by 4.

Relaxed for that Swampert please.

you can't change its nature, but you can get a new one with the right nature by breeding.

and he wasn't talking about hidden power, he was talking about Health Points.

For the nature, you must get a knew Swampert. It may sound hard, but it is worth it :). Hidden Power, or "HP", is amove that varies by the Pokemons IVs. Because you can't really controll what IVs Pokemon get makes the correct HP hard to get ingame.
