I have done my research on hordes (mainly just messing about where hordes of pokemon roam) and I have discovered that a horde of pokemon are usually half the level of singular pokemon in the area, and that there can be different species of pokemon in a horde that can (and in my case with a horde of 2 sevipers and 3 zangooses) and most of the time will attack eachother.

UPDATE:
Thought hordes were nice, ran into a horde of wobbuffet in the glittering cave. My worst nightmare, took down my whole team.
Also has anyone thought that each pokemon has a certain value or chance of being in a horde. Because the only time i have ever run into gulpin is in a horde.

I don't really like them at all. They're annoying because five Pokémon can gang up on you with stuff like Sand-Attack, Confuse Ray or such. They just take forever. If it wasn't 5-on-1 maybe they wouldn't be as bad for me, but overall I don't find them fun. I did get my Crobat evolved from a Zubat that was in one, though. :P

On Route 5, I saw a few lone Gulpins at normal levels.

Also on Route 5, I'd once seen a Plusle horde with a single Minun but never gave a thought to catching either, thinking I'll get my chance later, and two-shotted the horde with Incinerate. I did find some stray Plusles later and caught one of those; however, Minun never showed up and, I think, is horde-exclusive.

A second electric horde finally showed up today. I had Nincada (Lv.18) leading, and the large number of moves lowering attack (they know two moves to lower Attack, one being the new move "Play Nice"), plus the fact that Nincada couldn't one-shot them to begin with, it took a while to defeat them. They had no actual attacks, so I leisurely lowered Minun into the yellow then took out the four Plusle before capturing my Minun. :)
