    I got me a new DS and I bought Heartgold; now I'm kinda worried about getting a team because this time I'm iffy about what I want. So I wanted to make my team based on my dark team; So here I go.

    Weavile
    @Adamant
    -Surf
    -Metal Claw
    -Night Slash
    -Revenge

    Honchkrow
    @Jolly (?)
    -Wing Attack
    -Fly
    -Night Slash/Dark Pulse
    -Psychic

    Drapion
    @?
    -Fire Fang
    -Bug bite
    -Bite
    -Venoshock

    Houndoom
    @?
    -Fire fang
    -Will-o-wisp
    -Bite
    -Solarbeam

    Shiftry
    @Adamant
    -Razor Leaf/Seed Bomb
    -Silver Wind
    -Sucker Punch
    -Aerial Ace

    I need suggestions for a 6th member. I'm thinking of a Sharpedo but I don't know where to find a Caravaha :[
     
    Either a Bulky Umbreon set or Sharpedo would be your best choice, ground and fire attacks already hurt quite a bit of your team. If Honchkrow is dead a Earthquake user could rip apart that team pretty easily, and if Houndoom is dead I don't really see anything that could take strong fire attacks to easily. Personally I would pick Umbreon because a lot of your team is already frail, and Sharpedo would only add to the frailty. In the end it is your choice though.
     
    Surf or any special attack on Weavile's about as effective as trying to kill a rhino with a plastic fork, don't believe me look at its special attack stat for a few seconds. Sorry to be so harsh there but it's true sadly.

    For Weavile I would recommend replacing Surf, Metal Claw, and Revenge with Swords Dance, Avalanche or Ice Punch/Shard if you're willing to breed a bit, and Brick Break so you can have an effective physical sweeper on your hands.

    For Houndoom go with Nasty Plot, Flamethrower/Fire Blast, Dark Pulse, and either Thunder Fang or Taunt to fill in the last moveslot there.

    I'll go into more details sometime later though but good luck with your team regardless <3
     
    If you want a Carvanha I can get you one in a few days, my emerald version should be out of the shop soon.
     
    Venoshock in HG? O.O VShock didn't exist in Gen IV. Probably you were saying Cross Poison instead of Vshock?
     
    If you want to keep solor beem on Houndoom, I'd replace replace Will-o-wisp with sunny day, fire fang with a more powerful fire move like flamethrower and I'd replace bite with Crunch.

    Air Slash might be better than fly for honkrow, but I guess you'll want that move so you can fly.

    Have you also thought about Spritomb or Sableye?

    I'd say anything to cover all of those dark type, so preferably a psychic type or a pokemon whose fast and can learn psychic type moves, and or a fire type to get those nasty bugs (Houndoom is awesome so good job for that) but definitely a psychic for those hard hitting fighting types, (Although Honchcrow can help out a bit with flying type :D)
