So it has to be Relaxed with these EVs: 252 HP/164 Atk/92 Def.
Cacturne: Even with Jolly, it's still too slow. You can go with an Adamant nature, your current EV spread and this set:
-Substitute
-Focus Punch
-Sucker Punch
-Seed Bomb/Swords Dance
Item: Leftovers
Quagsire: Why Surf when it's Impish? Also, the Water/Ground combination is walled by Grass types. Replace Surf with Stone Edge or Ice Punch.

I don't really like focus punch, and I like leech seed so much...
I'll make a relaxed hippopotas then.
Thanks for the advices.

Whiscash @ Life Orb/Leftovers
Adamant Nature
4 HP - 252 ATK - 252 speed
Anticipation
Waterfall/Aqua Tail
Stone Edge/Rock Slide
Earthquake
Dragon Dance/Zen Headbutt
also, whether you use Whiscash OR quagsire, make sure you have a pokemon that knows Fire, Bug, Flying or Ice-Type moves... (bug is best in BL, as Gallade has Leaf Blade, but you are in NU, so you could use any)

I meant waterfall, sorry XD
I'm keeping quagsire, since I want recover 'cause I want to be defensive.
I have waterfall to deal with other earth pokémon (since earthquake hits rock and steel) but I think ice punch could be fine (that way I have an ice move) and I already have a bug move on my magneton... So I'll look for a fire move and see how to get it... maybe I can replace someone and get a camerupt?
