 Hmm.  Special Attacker.. I'm pretty Diamond/Pearl/Platinum right now but for Emerald, have you tried Starmie?  Starmie was pretty much the premier special attacker in R/S/E.

I haven't used Starmie since the RBY days, so might as well try it out. It'll still be a while before I can get my hands on a Super Rod or a Water Stone, but I'll manage.

So Starmie it is, then.

 

 Go for Timid Nature, 40 HP EV's, 216 Spd EV's, rest in Sp. Atk.

The standard set is..

Recover
Thunderbolt/Ice Beam
Surf
