DPPt/HGSS Haunter moveset and item ...

Arrgghh. I really need help with my Haunter (In FireRed). I need a moveset and an item he should be holding ... I can't remember his nature, I'll probably add it later.

Haunter @ ...
Levitate

- Hypnosis [Psychic]
- Dream Eater [Psychic]
- Psychic [Psychic]
- Curse [? ? ?]

Is this moveset OK? Which Item should I use?

NOTE:: This is just for In-Game. Not competitive.
 
Haunter@ ? beats me
- T-bolt/Thunder
- Psychic
- Shadow Ball
- Sludge Bomb

Double STAB and okay coverage, especially for the E4, where you demolish all but Bruno's Onixes and Lance(Rival varies)

Keep in mind that this is FireRed - Shadow Ball and Sludge Bomb are physical attacks in Gen III, and won't be as effective on Haunter since its Attack is nowhere near as good as its Sp.Attack.

Thunderbolt and Psychic are very good moves to have for Haunter offensively. Hypnosis is a very helpful move to have along as well, and the fourth move is essentially filler - Haunter's movepool is enormous, so you have a lot to pick from. Down to personal preference really.
