Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Walls allow you to switch into attacks that your sweepers can, they can chip away and heal off damage. But more importantly, what if a gyarados gets 2 dragon dances, it will kill every poke on your team if you don't have a wall.
If you're comparing it to heracross I don't think it does well:
- A hi jump kick does about as much as a close combat (slightly more)
- Medicham has lower defenses
- Medicham has few resistances, while heracross has many
- Heracross has a much wider movepool
- Heracross gets guts and swarm...
I'd say ambipom, although the monkey is becoming pretty popular now. I am also a big fan of an anti speed lickilciky set
Gyro Ball
Hammer Arm
Explosion
Curse/Power whip/fling (iron orb)
It can usually take down a poke and then explode on the next one
