I think that professor sycamore is not needed since you dont want to discard things like solgaleo prism or magnezone pieces.... four guzma isnt needed i think you could go down to two because you one hit k/o everything in the format to begin with so its better to play three skyla.... acerola...
Ive been running a two fomantis 1 lurantis gx and one of the promos. It helps beat buzzwole and helps with any 180 pokemon and also used in the gardy matchup

Yes i really love that the deck finally had a good showing at a big tournament!! I definently think that wishful baton is a very good option to maintain resources
Hey so i was thinking that maybe the third lele should go towards a third zorua beacuse right now i have been having trouble with prizing some or both and if you draw the third in later game you can just trade it. Although its the same problem with brigette
Since this is an expanded deck that stops your opponent from using items i think that ghetsis would be a must have at least with one maybe even two. It could pull some big numbers for extra draw support. Another think. At some point once the new item lock luxio is out this deck seems like it...
Yes in expanded where items are more heavily relied on this deck would be crucial especially since you wouldnt be locking yourself out of items. Hypnotoxic lasers would be so amazing along with virbank city gym. Maybe a third seviper would help to lay more damage down
i like the list except you didnt put the nagnadel gx in the list. Also i think the deck could be a very decent potential but i think that the new ultra beast energy should be in the deck. One more ultra ball would also be needed and potentially use some other support pokemon. Cynthia should also...
Yes i definently agree that with the release of cynthia some if not all of the sycamore could leave the deck. The second bridgette seems to be the best option for the drop of the third lele. Especially since that make the chance of prizing brigette much less and allows it to be in starting hand...
Question how good do you think this deck could be in expanded since there is shaymin and a lot more options?? I think it would lose hard to Night march tho.
I like the second brigette. I hadnt thought of it yet. Choice band is also nice but damage isnt really an issue its more energy on board and making attackers last longer that is an issue which is why i think gardenia is a good play if even only one of. Pal pad could be a nice two of or maybe one...
I think that the Super Rod is not necessary because in the play testing ive done so far recovery isnt usually an option. Once youve lost energy to knockouts or discarding its very hard to recover not due to resource but more to speed of setting back up again. As long as energy is used wisely...
