-Rock Slide/Brick Break/Ice Beam/HP ?

and

Sceptile @ Leftovers
Overgrow
Modest Nature (+ SP Atk, - Atk)
-Substitue
-Leech Seed
-Dragon Claw
-Leaf Blade

any changes?

also i need movesets for Arcanine and Dusclops.. maybe

Arcanine @ Leftovers
Intimidate
Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def)
-Overheat/Fire Blast/Flamethrower
-Iron Tail/HP Fighting/HP Grass
-Extremespeed
-Crunch

and

Dusclops @ Leftovers
Pressure
Calm Nature (+SP Def, -Atk)
-Will-o-Wisp
-Confuse Ray
-Night Shade
-Taunt/Rest/Mean Look/Pain Split

OK, replace Surf with Waterfall. Sceptile should have Dragon Pulse & Leaf Storm, instead of Dragon Claw & Leaf Blade. He didn't necessarily lose those moves from the fourth-gen switch (remember, Leaf Blade was special, but now physical. Sceptile runs off special moves) but there overshadowed with these new moves.

Swampert @ Leftovers
Torrent
Rash Nature (+ Def, -Spd)
-Curse
-Earthquake
-Surf
-Rock Slide/Brick Break/Ice Beam/HP ?

Hmmm... there are two different setups for Swampert. There's CursePert and basic Swampert. I'll give you them both:

CursePert:

Swampert @ Chesto Berry
Impish Nature (+Defense, -Special Attack)
- Curse
- Earthquake
- Rest
- Rock Slide

Curse raises Attack and Defense, but lowers Speed. No use in using a Special attack when your Attack will go through the roof after a few Curses. Between Earthquake and Rock Slide, Swampert can hit anything for some serious damage. Rest + Chesto Berry to give a free recovery turn.

Or there's the basic Swampert, which I tend to prefer more than CursePert:

Swampert @ Leftovers OR Chesto Berry
Relaxed Nature (+Defense, -Speed)
- Surf
- Earthquake
- Ice Beam
- Rest

I like this one a bit more, but it's rather uncommon. Surf and Earthquake for STAB, Ice Beam to take out any Grass type that comes in to pwn you, and Rest to keep him alive. Leftovers is preferred, but Chesto Berry gives you a free healing turn. If you have Aromatherapy/Heal Bell support, go with Leftovers.

He said it was for netbattle, therefore Leaf Storm and Dragon Pulse = not available in 3rd Gen.

Now Sceptile:
Substitute
Leech Seed
Hidden Power (Ice)
Leaf Blade
Timid Nature should be ran on it.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw that all he had was third gen moves, but I didn't know what netbattle meant. I saw netbattle, and assumed online D/P play. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
