Maybe with a little help with the GS for more :P, you can max the Pokemon's EV's or whatever. But these Pokemon that you choose are up to you because you have to choose your battling style

One suggestion I have is to drop your Swellow for a Breloom, who can deal with Glacia pretty well if trained up.

Breloom
Mach Punch
Facade/Return
Iron Tail
Bulk Up

Try using that.

The best teams are always varid. So I thought this was quite a good team:

Charizard- Great Fire/Flying type

Dragonite- Awesome Dragon who can learn a lot of moves

Alakazam- Saw in a YouTube video using Thunderpunch and Ice Punch, also a great Psychic type

Tyranitor- A powerful Rock/Dark type which can learn some powerful moves

Blastoise- A very helpful Water type

You can choose your own sixth pokemon. Highly recommend a type different than any of these!

Hope this helps!

Well as a mod will probably say, "You could go with six Pichu's and win. Pick your favorites and go with it. Locked."

Lol, I dunno. I'd say pick your fav based on looks (:

Pretty decent team though. You WILL have a decent amount of trouble with gyms to come, though. Your team has a high risk of super hits from Ground, Electric, Water, and Fighting.
I know it may be one of your favs, but I'd say either drop Gyarados, or Magcargo for a Glalie. Glalie has decent Speed, Sp. Attk, and Attk and has a decent enough movepool. Teach Gardevoir an electric type attack, since it'll save you in the long run, or Light Screen, since every other gym and Elite Four member us Special types. A Vileplume or Bellosom would be decently effective as well.

Salamence and Metagross are staples in any team, with Swampert being the helpful legendary. Now, look at their weaknesses, Dragon, Ice, Ground, Fire, and Grass. Try to fill in the blanks using those types of pokemon and moves.

Slamence, Metagross and Swampert don't have to be the ones. Pick one you absolutely have to have, and partner it with it's polar opposite.

Both Sharpedo and Crawdaunt are decently even. Crawdaunt has more Defense though, so it all comes down to which one you favor more.
And if you're wanting a Ghost type, Dusclops can hold it's own in battle for a while with its giant defenses. That, and its ability to learn different move types such as Ice beam and Earhquake, come in handy.

I have Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.

**Also have LeafGreen and FireRed. I can get to Mewtwo by 20 hours gameplay, though my personal best for that was a Squirtle run of 12 hours.**

Was wondering what the best Pokemon are for speeding through these games quickly?

I'm torn for the starter point.
MUDKIP or TORCHIC? Mudkip's later typing is awesome, but Blaziken has that Fighting-type needed for Badge Five. And Norman is just annoying and slows me down. All the time.

I have narrowed it down slightly to what is good for a few choices.
Is there anything else I should go for?

~Torkoal or Torchic
~Tentacruel, Gyarados or Swampert
~Swellow
~Linoone for HM trashing and PICKUP
~Magnemite (evolved)
~Jynx, as traded from Kanto's Cerulean City trade

Are any "version exclusives" or Pokemon more common in one version than the other (Koffing vs. Grimer) worth considering?
Should I trade some other stuff from FR/LG to Ruby/Sapphire ?

i play emerald and the best team for me is:
Blazikan (or your other starter pokemon)
all the 3 legendary pokemons (R K and G)
Tyranitor (i dont have it but you should put it)
Flygon
they should be on lvl 70+-
and they will have deadly attacks which can win everything :]

This should be asked here.
But Blissey and Skarmory are good defenses.
Having something with high attack, and somehthing with high Special attack is good too. And maybe something with an even balance of most stats too.

Either starter can go a long way. If you're wanting a SPEED run, go for Torchic, it'll save you the trouble of finding a Torkoal, which are decently hard to find. (Not overwhelmingly hard though.) Gyarados OR Tentecruel are pretty good choices as well. Though Tentecruel can take advantage of both of it's type better than Gyarados can.
Jynx is a good Pokemon, but has horrific Defense. I took one out with a single Strength from my Raichu once. :/ So its best to stick with a pokemon that can hold its own for a little while. Glalie would be good for that. Not only that, but its stats are always equal, making it very adatable with its movepool.

Hope it helped a LITTLE bit.

Hello there! I have beaten LeafGreen as well but had some difficulties. I suggest training team a little bit more. Can you give me Blastoise's moves and how far have you gotten on the Elite 4?
