FIXES IN BOLD
Alakazam @ Lum Berry
Male/Timid/Syncronize
EV's, [252-Sp.Atk/252-Spd/6-HP]
- Thunder Punch
- Psychic
- Calm Mind
- Fire Punch
Don't have Psybeam. You already have Psychic. 2 Of the same Type of moves on one dude is too much... Wasted space for a move. Thunder Punch cuz Water is really Common. Fire for Bug. A Psychic Weakness. Or Ice Punch for Ground cuz a Strong STABed Earthquake ownz Alakazam.
Gardevoir @ Leftovers
Male/Modest/Syncronize
EV's, [252-Sp.Atk/252-Spd/6-HP]
- Psychic
- Calm Mind
- Hypnosis
- Dream Eater
2 Psychics on 1 Team. I don't really see a problem with Gardevoir but you already have an Alakazam.
Raichu @ Lum Berry (If only Light Ball worked for Raichu and not just Pikachu.)
Male/Naive/Static
EV's, [252-Sp.Atk/252-Atk/6-Spd]
- Volt-Tackle
- Thunder Wave
- Body Slam
- Thunderbolt
I'm not to sure about this one. But it's my best Advice. And this time, I beleive it's not a waste to have both Thunder Bolt and Volt Tackle.
Machamp @ Leftovers
Male/Adamant/Guts
EV's, [252-Atk/252-Spd/6-HP
- Rock Slide
- Cross Chop
- Bulk Up
- Brick Break
Rock Slide for Flying Types. Brick Break for a Reliable Fighting Attack. Cross Chop for Power and Bulk Up to Raise Attack and Defence.
Well, those are my suggestions to you. Hope I helped. Also, I really think you need 2 more people on your team. You havn't covered much Type Weaknesses. A good Ghost Attack could Take out Machamp, Gardevoir and Alakazam. Well, hope my advice helped.

In the Battle Frontier, these 2 Old ladies are in a house somewhere around there. They will teach someone a Move for Battle Points. Fire Punch, Thunder Punch and Ice Punch are 48 Battle Points.

Not that bad choices for pokemon, but there are a few important ideas people use a lot in pokemon that will help you out loads.
1. Use a STAB move
STAB means Same Type Attack Bonus. When the move is the same type as the pokemon using it, it does an extra 50% damage. E.G the Psychic on your Alakazam.
Moral of the Story: Psychic on Alakazm is Good :)
2. Never have the same type of attack more than once on a single pokemon.
Basically, each type of move has advantages against specific pokemon. If you make sure each of your attacks deals damage against different types, thus it can take down more pokemon by itself.
Moral of the Story: Alakazam has Psychic and Psybeam. Psychic is better, try replacing Psybeam with ThunderPunch, IcePunch or FirePunch.
3. Never have pokemon of the same type on your team.
If you have a team of Psychic pokemon, a single Dark pokemon may be immune to their attacks and wipe them all out. It's wise to try and mix as many different types as possible.
Moral of the Story: You need to decide between Alakazam and Gardevoir. Most people would recommend Gardevoir of the 2.
So, onto the fix...
Alakazm (If you decide to keep it)
Nature: ???
Item: ???
- Psychic
- IcePunch/ThunderPunch/FirePunch (replaced Psybeam)
- Calm Mind
- Recover
Gardevoir (If you decide to keep it)
Nature: ???
Item: Leftovers
- Psychic
- Calm Mind
- Hypnosis
- Dream Eater
Good moveset in my opinion, but some people will recommend the Punches.
Raichu
Nature: ???
Item: ???
- Thunder Wave (guarenteed Paralyse) (replaced Shock Wave)
- Rain Dance
- Thunder
- Thunderbolt
Not very experienced with Raichu, but the Rain Dance + Thunder combo works well. Beware of Physical Attackers, like Slaking.
Machamp
Nature: ???
Item: ???
- Earthquake (replaced Karate Chop)
- Cross Chop
- Vital Throw
- Rock Slide (replaced Submission)
More types it's good ATK stat is effective against.
I'd consider raising a Swampert (get a Mudkip baby from a friend) as it's very powerful. If you're just doing it for fun, go grab a Legendary Dog and either Kyogre or Groudon. Good luck, and hope my notes helped :)

Alakazam can't last long enough for Recover to work. I wouldn't use it.

The Battle Frontier is in Emerald only. R/S has the Battle Tower, but not the other areas/things in the BF.
Got BF?

Oh, your not using Emerald. Okay. Well then, for Thunder Punch/Fire Punch and Ice Punch, I'll have to suggest breeding.
Alakazam can breed with Jynx. Jynx Learns Ice Punch. But she's always Female so Alakazam won't inherit Ice Punch.
Magmar learns Fire Punch at Level 19. Breed a Female Alakazam with a Male Magmar that has Fire Punch. Magmar can only be obtained in Leaf Green at Mount Ember.
Electabuzz Learns Thunder Punch at Level 9. Breed a Female Alakazam with a Male Electabuzz that has Thunder Punch. Electabuzz can only be obtained in Fire Red at the Power Plant.
Alakazam can Breed with Hitmonchan. Hitmonchan learns Fire Punch/Ice Punch and Thunder Punch all at Level 26. Breed a Female Alakazam with a Male Hitmonchan than has Fire Punch/Ice Punch and Thunder Punch. Hitmonchan can only be obtained in the Fighting Dojo in Either Leaf Green or Fire Red. There is only 1 Per Version.
That's my suggestion to you. Hope I Helped. :)

or, get a male medicham and use a heart scale with the move tutor to get whatever elemental punch you want and then breed it with a female alakazam. if you cant get a hold of FRLG either.
Also, sometimes it's alright to have 2 of the same type on a team. Skarmory and Magneton and Metagross are all Steel types and could each be used on a team with one another (maybe not all 3 at once though).
