    Yeah, my team is mostly offensive, because I find the AI to be not so hard. My team is in training near the Safari Zone, getting ready for the Steel Gym. I'm really looking for some help with what you think would be better moves at this point of time and maybe some strategies. My team right now is;

    Feraligatr (Poseidon) Lv35 @Mystic Water
    -Headbutt
    -Crunch
    -Surf
    -Ice Fang

    Ampharos (Zeus) Lv35 @Silk Scarf
    -Tackle
    -ThunderPunch
    -Discharge
    -Thunder Wave

    Fearow (Kenya) Lv35
    -Fly
    -Fury Attack
    -Assurance
    -Aerial Ace

    Magmortar (Torcher) Lv35 @Charcoal
    -Fire Punch
    -Ember
    -Confuse Ray
    -Faint Attack

    Eevee (Psy) Lv32 @Soothe Bell (Eevee --> Espeon)
    -Quick Attack
    -Bite
    -Shadow Ball
    -Dig

    Yeah, I'm training them to Lv35 and I really think their moves could be better. By the way, by the time you're reading this, they will probably all be Lv35

    Not bad at all.

    Although I usually evolve my Eevee around LV15 or so. That way it can learn Confusion and Psybeam after it becomes an Espeon. Personally, I would breed another Eevee and evolve it much earlier. If you don't want to do that, I recommend evolving it before LV36, because Espeon learns Psybeam then.
     
    All right for Feraligatr replace headbutt with Return (You can get up to like 110 power) and later on Surf for Waterfall. Ampharos looks good except for tackle try to get return for that too. Fearow looks good but I don't really know since I don't really raise them. Magmortar has, IMO, too many physical moves, try to find flamethrower or fire blast for him. Finally, my favorite pokèmon, Eevee, like Jab said try to evolve it soon because if you don't your next Psychic type move will be future sight, @ level 43, until level 64 or Saffron City when you get Psychic in both
     
    I evolved my Eevee at Lv33 so I got it to Lv36 and it knows Psybeam. Right now, I have no Fire TM's so Magmortar can't really change. I taught Feraligatr Strength over Headbutt becuase its a stronger physical move and I needed a Strength user. I'm going to change that in Blackthorn city, after I get some Heart Scales. I actually don't know where to get some Return TM's, but i reckon they would be good. I don't really think I want to breed an Eevee, it took me long enough to make it happy and I'm not really a patient trainer, unless I NEED to train, like the Steel Gym, even though Magmortar kicked their asses. I'm up to the Team Rocket Base in Mahogany Town. I'm planning on getting a ExtremeSpeed Dratini from Blackthorn and Exp. Sharing it. Any ideas on him before I get him? Also, My team now is;

    Feraligatr Lv35 (Poseidon) @Mystic Water
    -Strength (Change Later)
    -Crunch
    -Surf (May Change)
    -Ice Fang

    Ampharos Lv35 (Zeus) @Silk Scarf
    -Tackle (NEED Change)
    -ThunderPunch
    -Discharge
    -Thunder Wave

    Fearow Lv35 (Kenya)
    -Fly
    -Fury Attack
    -Assurance
    -Aerial Ace

    Magmortar Lv35 (Torcher) @Charcoal
    -Fire Punch (Change Later)
    -Ember (Change Later)
    -Confuse Ray (May Change)
    -Faint Attack (Will Change)

    Espeon Lv36 (Psy) @Soothe Bell
    -Psybeam
    -Bite (May Change)
    -Shadow Ball
    -Dig (May Change)

    Not much change right :P

    EDIT: My team now, up to the Ice Path is stronger. I plan on getting Slash for Feraligatr when I get rid of Strength.

    Feraligatr Lv40 (Poseidon) @Mystic Water
    -Strength (Change with Slash/Return)
    -Crunch
    -Surf (Change with Waterfall)
    -Ice Fang

    Ampharos Lv40 (Zeus) @Silk Scarf
    -Tackle (Change with Return/Other)
    -ThunderPunch
    -Discharge
    -Thunder Wave

    Fearow Lv39 (Kenya)
    -Fly
    -Fury Attack
    -Assurance
    -Aerial Ace

    Magmortar Lv40 (Torcher) @Charcoal
    -Fire Punch (Change with Flamethrower/Other)
    -Lava Plume
    -Confuse Ray
    -Faint Attack (Change with Sp. Atk)

    Espeon Lv40 (Psy) @Soothe Bell
