Where does your arm hurt? Shoulder? Elbow? Muscles? How old are you? Soreness should be expected to a point, but not in the joints. Swelling of the muscles also is normal if you have pitched a lot; ice on your arm will help with that. Avoiding breaking balls is best until you are at least twelve or thirteen; waiting longer would be better. You might be throwing too much with your arm and not driving enough with your legs. If you want to see good pitching mechanics, I suggest you watch Aaron Harang pitch for the Reds. He is really good and very consistent with his delivery.
Pitching videos are easily found on any search engine. My sources below are the top three that came up when I googled "Pitching mechanics video".

You may not be doing something wrong if your arm hurts… I am a pitcher for my high school team and i have good mechanics but my arm sometimes still gets sore. If your arm is in pain, then you might wanna talk to your coach and see what he can do to help you.
Some tips are to loosen up before you warm up to pitch. Run a little before to get your whole body going. If you are throwing a Curve ball you really have to make sure you have good mechanics or you can do some major damage to your elbow. Always remember when you throw a curve ball your elbow goes before your arm when you throw it.

Maybe the the reason why your arm hurts after you pitch is because when you pitch you throw with just your arms and no push off with your leg because I’m a pitcher for my high school team and when I get tired I sling my arm with no lower body to help which after the game my arm hurts. An MLB pitcher that has great mechanics is Tim Lincecum of the Giants, he has the right mechanics because since he’s only 5′10 and 175 pounds he can throw 98 MPH so I would check on him for mechanics if I was you.
