Nature: Bold

Believe it or not, Victreebel is a formidable sunnybeamer (Sure beats Giga Drain). The Bold nature sucks since it cuts down Victreebel's Attack (Weakening Sludge Bomb) but it should still be able to accomplish something with it. Sleep Powder is a nice filler move as when you get the Chlorophyll boost (Doubled Speed) Victreebel should be able to outspeed a great deal of pokémon and incapacitate them with Sleep Powder. Quite nasty. But do evolve it, Weepinbell is far too weak to be useful. At any rate, Victreebel is best of in NetBattle where you don't have to worry about where to get the appropriate berries. In fact, I'd suggest going with something else for the frontier.
Nidoqueen (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Poison Point
Stats: HP 210, ATK 135, DEF 141, SATK 127, SDEF 127, SPD 128
Hardy Nature (+nothing, -nothing)
Crunch Ice Beam
Aerial Ace Thunderbolt
Ice Punch Substitute
Swagger Focus Punch
Optional Nidoqueen, and actually quite useful against a great deal of formidable opponents (E.g. Salamence, Gyarados, and Tyranitar), although lacking the raw battering power of CB Nidoqueen. It's an option, certainly, although CB Nidoqueen is probably easier to handle.
Notes for Nidorina: If this doesn't need any improvement, I'll be quite shocked. o.O
Gengar (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
Stats: 152 HP, 104 Attack, 96 Defense, 145 SP Attack, 127 SP Defense, 157 Speed.
Careful Nature
Confuse Ray Ice Punch
Thunderbolt
Destiny Bond/Hypnosis
Shadow Ball Fire Punch/Giga Drain
Ugh, no...not Careful Gengar...Careful Gengar makes my Cradily cry...;__; Meh, special attacks are still the way to go. Ice Punch complements Thunderbolt nicely, between them you only have a handfull of resistant opponents. This is then further cut down by the third damaging move. If you'd like an additional edge against things like Metagross or Magneton, go with Fire Punch, but if Lanturn and Swampert are more of a treath go with Giga Drain. For the final move, Destiny Bond is a viable option, but Hypnosis also provides some...interesting opportunities. Will-O-Wisp is nice too, but that requires breeding so let's not go there.
Gardevoir (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Trace (x.x)
Stats: 175 HP, 91 ATK, 95 DEF, 192 SPATK, 162 SPDEF, 123 SPD.
Modest nature
Psychic
Shock Wave Thunderbolt/Fire Punch
Fire Punch/Calm Mind
Defense Curl Hypnosis
Meh, pretty standard Gardevoir. Psychic for damage and Thunderbolt and Fire Punch for extra type coverage. Optionally, one of them can be replaced with Calm Mind since Gardevoir actually has some chance of making use of that move, especially if you incapacitate your opponent with Hypnosis first. Will-O-Wisp is also an option for the last slot, but since it requires breeding I decided not to suggest it. As for trace, despite your little smilie there, it's actually got its uses, great for stopping sunnybeamers (Switch in, copy the Chlorophyll trait and outspeed, using Fire Punch for an OHKO) among other things, so don't knock it until you've tried it.
