Waterfall/Foresight Surf could work nicely

Ludicolo

??? Perhaps Ice Beam or Blizzard?

Comments in bold. I may have overdone it with Surf, but it's really the best water move.
 
I know this is a bit late, but just in case you're still looking for suggestions...

Swampert:
It's just a personal preference of mine that Surf and Fly are the only worthwhile HM's to use in actual battle. So, I would say ditch both Strength and Waterfall in favor of Surf and Foresight (or even Toxic). You could even turn in Brick Break for Protect to stall out Toxic more effectively if you really wanted, since Brick Break's strengths are also covered by Earthquake (most noteably Rock and Steel).

Ludicolo:
Depending on its ability, you might want to consider giving it Rain Dance and Leech Seed. Rain Dish + Leech Seed + Mega/Giga Drain = well...lots of HP. Rain Dance would also kill the effectiveness of fire-type attacks. Surf or Hydro Pump to round it out.

Sharpedo:
Scizor King had the right idea, but go with Earthquake or even Ice Beam. Skull Bash is a 2-turn attack, and Sharpedo's weak Defenses don't really afford it a lot of time to do its work.

Starmie:
Lots of options. Confuse Ray is learned naturally at level 33 (though you'd probably need a Heart Scale at this point). It can also get Ice Beam or Light Screen through TM's, and of course, there's always Surf.

Kingdra:
Dragon Dance and Return/Facade. I know it's not the most effective spread of moves type-wise, but this is only a monotype run anyway, right? DD boosts Attack and Speed and then you'll have a move to take advantage of its raised Attack stat.

Milotic:
Surf, Recover and Facade. Facade gives Milotic a second way to utilize a status effect, the first being its Marvel Scale ability. Surf and Ice Beam for a usual arsenal, and Recover to increase its staying power.
