Your team is good but you should change Pinsir as he honestly doesn't improve or contribute much to your team, you should use a Psychic, Dark, or Ghost pokemon instead.
As for movesets, I can help with that, but this forum demands the use of natures and more detailes so I'll go...

Feraligatr
Adamant / Jolly nature
Moveset:
Ice Punch
Crunch
Waterfall
Earthquake

Ampharos
Modest / Timid nature
Moveset:
Thunderbolt
Thunder Wave
Signal Beam
Power Gem

Infernape
Adamant / Jolly nature
Moveset:
Flare Blitz
Thunder Punch
Close Combat
Earthquake

Dragonite (Dratini obtained in cave after 8th badge)
Adamant / Jolly nature
Moveset:
Fly
Extremespeed
Dragon Claw / Outrage / Dragon Rush (I recommend Dragon Claw, safe and strong)
Aqua Tail / Fire Punch (reommended Fire Punch against Ice which Dragonite is extremely weak against)

I have no idea about Pinsir...............(actually I do I'm just to lazy...)

Porygon-Z
Modest nature
Moveset:
Tri Attack
Psychic
Dark Pulse
Ice Beam

Good luck.

Pinsir can learn some really cool attack like earthquake and some psychic natured attack 2, so he isnt that bad, he is just underated... i will think about those move sets, i liked more some of them, and some of them i liked less... thanks tomer :)

Pinser is nice, but Heracross puts him to shame.

If your set on using Pinsir though...

Adamant/Jolly
X-Scissor
Close Combat / Superpower (depends if you want to breed or not)
Earthquake
Stone Edge

Like I said though, Heracross outclasses him, due to STAB Close Combat, Guts, Megahorn, Night Slash, etc...

Screw Heraross. I like Pinsir more than Heracross (Physical Appearance-wise). Heracross just looks so kind, whilst Pinsir is like, RAWR. Anyway, I have to agree on this. SameTypeAttackBonus(STAB) does work way too well for Heracross than Pinsir.. Sad, I know.

I like both Heracross and Pinsir. But Heracross does have more weaknesses (4x Flying, Psychic) too, so... although I personally prefer Heracross, I think it comes down to personal preference.

True. But Heracross packs more resistances, most notably, a Stealth Rock neutrality thanks to it's Fighting type. It's also resistant to Dark and Bug, two types with attacks that are more common than Flying and Psychic. Heracross isn't made useless by Burns either, though I must admit, Pinsir can hit Weezing with Earthquake which is nice.


@Hatchet, I'd go with DCT's suggestion on Infernape, but when you can, replace Thunderpunch Grass Knot on Infernape, since you lack Grass moves, and have an Ampharos waiting in the wings. Also, Earthquake is kind of redundant on Infernape, as Close Combat hits a lot of what Earthquake hits super effectively. Consider replacing with Swords Dance to boost the power of your main sweeping moves or Mach Punch to give you a bit of priority on the team. Final thing, Hasty or Naive nature, or if you prefer more power, Naughty or Lonely nature. Generally though, + speed natures are better on Infernape.
