Yup. My first run through i picked
Sceptile too. I was so jealous of not having
Swampert i traded all my good stuff to XD after i beat the game and started over so i could play with
Mudkip. He's now my favorite starter of all time.
We'll have to see how
Infernape does in the next installment
<Pearl>.
If you are really scared of trying to get *Hidden Power
InGame you could go with *Thunderbolt / *Thunder Wave / *Metal Sound / *Rest - and just switch out to
Sceptile against (Ground) types. You really shouldn't be standing and fighting (Ground) types with him anyway considering he's 4x Weak against them.
Also when you're
Shelgon turns into
Salamence I'd give him <*Earthquake / *Aerial Ace> TM's and he will become a beast. In fact if you go back to
Mauville City GameCorner you can buy a *Flamethrower TM for like 80,000 and give it to
Shelgon. He will take out that
Skarmory for you too i think but you'd still have some trouble with the other flyers which is why i suggested
Magnemite.

<EDIT> Wait a second...Don't you need *Waterfall HM to get a
Bagon in the first place? Did you hack in a
Bagon at the begining of the game? If not how do you have one at Fortree City?
Well if you are Sharking them in you might as well get a
Swampert while you are at it. Then i'd go with HP(Ice) for
Magneton as well. His IV's would have to be: <HP 31 / Att 31 / Def 31 / Sat 31 / Sdf 31 / Spd 30>. That'll give you Hp(Ice) at 70 Base Power.
