First of all, you should learn never to give a Pokemon two attacking moves of the same type. That means choose either Surf OR Dive, not Surf AND Dive (hint: Surf is way better).

Also, never use any HM moves on your main Pokemon except for Surf. All the other moves suck. Give them to a Pokemon that you don’t want to raise, like Zigzagoon, Spheal, or Slakoth.

Finally, there’s no point in telling us your Pokemon have Amulet Coin or EXP Share or whatever attached to them since those items don’t have any effect in battle. Items you should use include Leftovers, Choice Band, maybe some berries, etc.

Swampert is a great Pokemon, too bad that by being Bold, your Attack gets lowered :( Curse can fix that, but only if you can find a female Swampert to breed with. Rest lets it last for long time.


Groudon
DROUGHT
Nature: Adament
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Bulk Up/Swords Dance
- Fire Blast

Whoa, Adamant Groudon, you’re very lucky to get that nature. Rock Slide is way better than Slash and Swords Dance lets Groudon hit harder than Bulk Up (its Defense is already good enough and besides, it doesn’t have any physical weaknesses). Both require you to trade from Emerald/FR/LG though, but both are worth it.

Altaria (F) @ EXP. Share
NATURAL CURE
Nature: Calm
- Dragon Claw
- Sing
- Fire Blast/Flamethrower
- Rest

I assume you’ll be evolving Swablu soon. Anyways, Altaria can attack physically or specially, but since this one has a Calm nature, you should go with the special attacking version. Besides, its fire attack will get a boost from Groudon’s Drought. And Rest is just awesome on Altaria, because with Natural cure, it will wake up instantly after you switch it out.


Banette (M)
INSOMNIA
Nature: Brave
- Shadow Ball
- Will-o-wisp
- Thunderbolt/Return
- Destiny Bond/Screech/Knock Off

Bannete is a cool Ghost type even though Dusclops is better (but it’s a bit harder to train). Brave nature is pretty good, since its Attack gets a boost. This guy has a ton of options to choose from.
Shadow Ball and Will-o-wisp are musts.
Thunderbolt lets you hurt things like Skarmory (don’t use Thunder, its accuracy is halved in the sunlight). But Return works better with its high Attack.
Destiny Bond is a bred-on move, but its pretty awesome for taking down tough opponents. Screech works if you’re using both Shadow Ball and Return. And Knock Off won’t work well in game, but in link battles it’s great for knocking off the opponent’s items.


Swellow (F)
GUTS
Nature: Relaxed
- Peck
- Aerial Ace
- Wing Attack
- Quick Attack

What’s the point? You already have Altaria as a Flying Pokemon, another one will just increase your weakness to Ice attacks. Also, this Swellow isn’t very good, a Relaxed nature DECREASES its Speed, and Speed is Swellow’s best stat. Replace it with another Pokemon, something that has high Sp. Defense and resists Ice attacks…Regice is your best choice.

Flygon (M)
HYPER CUTTER
Nature: Serious
- Earthquake
- Fire Blast
- Rock Slide/Dragon Claw
- Screech/Crunch

When Trapinch evolves into Flygon, you’ll have another Dragon Pokemon with a 4x Ice weakness. You should either get rid of Flygon or Altaria for something else. Flygon is a better Dragon than Altaria, but Altaria is still pretty good. The above moveset can vary depending on if you have access to Rock Slide. If you do, go with the moves on the left column. If you don’t, make Flygon a special attacker with the moves on the right. Always keep Earthquake and Fire Blast though, they’re its best moves.

But if he teaches HMs to one Pokemon, then he won’t need to go to the Move Deleter all the time. Besides, Pokemon like Zigzagoon, Spheal, and Slakoth can learn multiple HMs at a time. That’s why we call them “HM Slaves”.

Whoops, sorry, didn't see the ♀ next to your name. ^^;

and, where is this move deleter?
The move deleter is in Lilycove City. His house is to the north, right next to the Department Store.

and, i don't have any of the regis
well, they're not too hard to get since they stay in one place. You just need to do a lot of things before you find them
