    Yeah, how about Rhydon or a Donophan?
    They can both learn Earthquake moves and some fairly sharp ground moves, also Donophan is fast.

    I'd add a Tyranitar. It's ground (I think) and dark, giving it two full resistances.

    Hmm... Not a bad idea mate, but remember one thing if you're going to use this team to battle friends/people you might want to consider that a LOT of people do use Tyranitar some movesets could KO a ground/dark type, watch out...

    I want to add a Ground type to my party as well, the only ground types I think are pretty cool is Phanpy/Donphan or Cubone/Marowak. I like them you should try one of them

    U can always add tyranitar, although it is kinda cheap. I would only go with Marowak if it is holding thick club, teach it stuff like earthquake, hyper beam, iron tail, and dynamic punch if u want a good fighting move to take advantage of t-tar's 4 time fighting weakness....
