Here's what I came up with for the set you suggested, the EV's look real nice in my opinion :D
Swampert (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 44 HP / 28 Atk / 156 Def / 124 SAtk / 156 SDef
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Ice Beam
- Surf
- Endeavor/Rest/Roar
- Earthquake
It gives him a whole lot of defence, nice Special Attack, and a nice Attack stat.
His HP is set so Leftovers gives you an extra 1 HP back each turn aswell :P
I would go with Rest if I were you, he can tank like that :P.
Here's a set I personally like using for Swampert, may aswell chuck it in..
Swampert (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 44 HP / 176 Atk / 96 Def / 96 SAtk / 96 SDef
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Substitute
- Focus Punch
- Surf
- Earthquake
You could opt for Sassy Nature if you wanted for some extra Special Defence.
Looking at Swamperts sets and movepool has got me thinking.. :D

Not everything, I was disappointed when I found out Exploud couldn't Subpunch (He can't Focus Punch).
Definately not cool, he has hands that you know, punch.. so yeah.
He has a decent Sp.Atk stat aswell, so Subpunch + Sp.Atk woulda been nice on him.
Oh well.. you get that.

Thats dumb,it should be able to subpunch.

I know, and so should Metagross, since it can Thunder PUNCH.
Anything that can PUNCH should be able to.

... Is there sand in your eyes? The four Beldum that make up Metagross are basicly its arms. What suprises me it that Metagross can Dynamic and element punch =|...
Swampert shouldn't have so much Sp.Atk if all it can do is Surf and Ice Beam. I mean, what is it really gonna catch off gaurd or even outspeed =\.

Now now, it's all good.
kantai's set would work pretty well in-game you know, and after all the section is called GB Strategies and Movesets :P
But, kantai, if you were to bring that on Netbattle, it would lose out due to not being able to gather enough power to kill anything.

That doesn't count though, the Pokemon CPU thing lacks sense =(...

I know, but we can't auto assume people are suggesting teams for online battling since most of the new people here don't know you CAN battle online.

You don't want more than one move of the same type, for battling. So you'd replace Dive and Waterfall with better things: Earthquake, Ice Beam. Rest, HP Bug?!?, Curse.
Your set looks more like a SwissArmyKnife set, for traveling, not a battle set (it's all utility moves, which are mostly - except for Surf - weak in battle).

Anyone have good sets that don't require an Egg Move (Curse)? Is LH's
- Endeavor/Rest/Roar set decent? And does it really make sense to Curse up just for EQ?

you curse up for the defense mainly
That way you can special and physical tank
