Don't be so reliant on stat-up boosts, especially in such an unreliable way like Moody. Prankster Heart Swap or Unaware Heart Swap will just make your efforts useless. Also Brightpowder is a bad item choice in general.

Gengar is really overrated. A player who knows the BH metagame well can tell what's coming. They'll let one of their Pokemon get Skill Swapped and then switch the next turn and stop you with Prankster Rhydon/Groudon or just Prankster Spore in general. I would try a Prankster Gengar with Taunt over Skill Swap. This catches Gengar's counters by surprise and prevents any attempts at using Prankster Spore/Destiny Bond/Heart Swap/Nature Power.

Since you have a couple of Stealth Rock weak members, I would try to fit a Rapid Spinner somewhere.
