Gyarados is weak to Electric (4x) and Rock, with a Ground immunity. This Pokémon has a high Attack stat and abuses it with Waterfall (Water) and Ice Fang (Ice) moves, so you shouldn't use the legendary here. It can also use Dragon Pulse (Dragon), and Flail (Normal; strengths as user weakens). Be prepped to use Full Heals - Ice Fang can freeze you. If you can't use an Electric/Rock move, use Kadabra/Alakazam. Your starter might manage, but that's last-ditch.
Charizard is weak to Rock (4x), Water, and Electric, with a Ground immunity. It has a wide type-coverage of moves: Air Slash (Flying), Fire Fang (Fire), Shadow Claw (Ghost), and Dragon Claw (Dragon). Amazingly, though, these moves don't cover the types Charizard is weak to. Graveler/Golem is unquestionably the best here, although Ho-oh (not Lugia - Shadow Claw) is a decent alternate.
Aerodactyl is weak to Water, Electric, Ice, and Rock. It's immune to Ground. It also has a wide type-coverage: Thunder Fang (Electric), Rock Slide (Rock), Aerial Ace (Flying), and Crunch (Dark). Water and Ice are weak to Thunder Fang and Rock Slide, respectively. So, it's preferred you use Graveler/Golem.
All three of the Dragonite are weak to Ice (4x), Dragon, and Rock. This paragraph covers the Lv. 49 ones. They both carry Thunder Wave (to make you paralyzed), Dragon Rush (Dragon; strong), and Hyper Beam. One of them will have Blizzard, and the other has Thunder. Luckily, neither of those can hurt an Ice, Dragon, or Rock type super-effectively. (Although Dragon Rush will really hurt a Dragon type.) It is strongly recommended to use Graveler/Golem on both of them if you lack an Ice move.
Now, for the Lv. 50 Dragonite. It has Outrage, a Dragon move with 180 overall Power, which will hurt for those 2-3 turns. It will confuse at the end of those turns. It can also use Fire Blast (120-Power Fire move), Hyper Beam (150-Power Normal move; rest on second turn), and Safeguard.
