So I am working on a turbo Darkrai style deck for expanded and need some opinions on how to tweak it to make it better. Other than the following Deck list, I am thinking of possible moving in a Shadow circle or two in order to bypass the current growth in buzzwole usuage in expanded. Thanks for the help y'all.

I actually had an idea for a concept similar to this before, but with a slightly thicker Silvie line.

Funny enough, I thought about tossing in a few Shaymin-EX, but in my test so far, I have only been caught once or twice in a situation where I would have benefited from him, As far as Sil, I have not actually used him much in my matches online so far and was actually thinking of scrapping him, maybe with making it 2-2 it may make him more available to use...
 
IMO, the Hoopa wil not provide you an effective "wall" protection against your opponents' EX and GX Pokémon attacks given your opponent's abilities to play cards like Garbodor (Garbotoxin), Guzma, Hex Maniac and/or Lysandre. Consider dropping those for other cards, including 1 Mr. Mime (Bench Barrier). For the other slot, I'd recommend adding a 4th VS Seeker.
