Raising a team and need an opinion

The only thing that bugs me about this team is its lack of a good Ground move (i.e Earthquake) and hence a lack of a way to take out Electric types.
Ambipom @ Focus Sash
Agility
Nasty Plot
Baton Pass
Substitue/Swift/Double Hit (Can't decide…)
Ambipom is my lead- he sets up and Baton Passes to whatever I feel like (Ampharos if I need a special sweeper, Ursaring if I just want to go physical). Focus Sash for his somewhat low defenses.
Ampharos (Roscoe) @ Quick Claw
Thunderbolt
Signal Beam
Power Gem
Focus Blast
Already raised, hits like a truck, and is waiting to sweep. Quick Claw because hes slow . . . really slow. His speed ended up being like 60.
Arcanine (Rahzar) @ Zap Plate
Flamethrower (I looked at Fire Fang, looked at his special attack, and chucked it for Flamethrower)
Thunder Fang
Crunch
Extremespeed
Zap Plate to boost Thunder Fang, his weakest move.
Ursaring (Ringo) @ Flame Orb (Guts)
Protect
Façade
Crunch
Brick Break
Protect to activate the Flame Orb and then pound away. Crunch for ghosts, Brick Break for steels and rocks. Im hoping Ambipoms agility will pair nicely with him, boosting him up so he can outspeed more than he can now. He's pretty slow as well…I think his speed came out to 85 or so.
Poliwrath @ (item yet to be chosen)
Waterfall
Body Slam
Attract
Double Team/Submission
Planning on a possible Parattract. The fourth move has me wavering, though; Submission is fun, but Double Team might be irritating (also fun).
Glaceon @ Brightpowder
Blizzard
Hail
Water Pulse
Shadow Ball
Basically something to take out dragons. Takes full advantage of Blizzard+Snow Cloak.
Tips or opinions, please? This is the first team Ive made thats actually got a set-up; in the past, Ive preferred sweepers. Im hoping this is the team thatll finally beat my brothers.
