Level up your team because it's really underleveled. Dark moves work very well there, in the past I've used Pangoro to win my 4th badge but that was before EP17. Surely it's still good though. Ampharos can deal with his Gengar due to the field and thunderwave (hopefully you have it). Mightyena's Crunch can dish out some nice damage, especially if you have Moxie ability on it. Your Charizard should be able to take out Doublade and Dhelmise. I'd recommend that you teach it Fire Pledge if you already haven't. Tutor is in the building to the left from the bug gym. Sandslash should be able to deal with his Mimikyu.

 

You could possibly to it without changing your team at all. Level up and come up with a strategy that may work, hopefully you can find some use from my text above.

Well seems like this is already answered, but I was just wanting to add in that if you have moxie on mightyena and some status move like sleep or paralysis (possibly from ampharos?) To put on Gengar, you can stack up a couple of X speeds from the department store and pretty much sweep the entire team.
