Hold up - how was this list running N if UK Nationals was Standard Format without Fates Collide?

I made some tiny changes (Including Fates Collide). I took out an Ace Trainer and other cards that could be replaced by them. Now that the set is legal I would like to think this is how it would've been played.

Ah right, wicked.

I love Greninja BREAK but I find it hard to comment on - a lot of the choices are down to personal preference, some examples being:

• Whether to include Octillery or not.
• Rough Seas or Silent Lab.
• What mix of Poke Balls to use - Dive, Level and Ultra Ball.
• What mix of Rare Candy, Evo Soda and Wally to use.

That being said, I like the look of your changes and I'll test this list out later today. A couple of things to point out - no Muscle Band and no Ace Trainer; I wonder if these would still be valuable inclusions? N is more reliable but Ace Trainer is higher reward in the early game.

How does this deal with Octillery being Lysandred?

Probably needs an AZ or a float stone or two. Honestly. Drop a Wally and a Sycamore for 2 float stones
