  Other two moves are crap and need replacing - any sugestions?

To have your team suggested or rated you need to read this on how to make a thread

Then once your done with that i highly suggest you go to Smogon for how to build a team and learning the tiers.

Also S&M doesn't make teams.

You will probably wonder why this team probably should be scrapped, you have one pokemon from the OU tier (gengar) but the rest of your team is UU or below meaning you'll have to fight OU pokemon with UU/NU pokemon severly hindering your chances of winning.

Giving yourself 4 stab moves on marowak might seem passable in game but competitively you are shooting yourself in the foot, as all your oponnent needs to do is switch to a flying type and your marowak will then need to switch out. Your movepool either needs to do something strategy wize or provide the largest type coverage that deals with common metagame threats. Quick claw is also a luck item, it is covered under standard rules and can't be used.

Please read the above links.

Marowak: NU http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/marowak
Ampharos: NU (And not much of a threat there either I'm afraid...) http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/ampharos

Steelix: UU http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/steelix

Shiftry: NU http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/shiftry

And Quick Claw is banned, by the way.

The team could definitely be re crafted into a UU/NU team, but I wouldn't be the one to ask about this.
