Standard Looking For Help In Solidifying My Dusk Mane/Magenzone Deck.

Hello everyone. I have been playing Dusk Mane Necrozma for around 40 games and have around a 66% win percentage. (not sure if that's a good enough win ratio to be considered good with a deck). I really like the way the deck plays and have been trying to make it as consistent as possible. This is my list:

****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ******

##Pokémon - 17

* 3 Dusk Mane Necrozma-GX UPR 90
* 3 Magnemite UPR 81
* 3 Magnezone UPR 83

* 2 Tapu Lele-GX GRI 60
* 1 Alolan Vulpix GRI 21
* 1 Remoraid CIN 22
* 1 Staryu BKP 25
* 1 Octillery BKT 33
* 1 Starmie EVO 31

##Energy - 10

* 10 Metal Energy XYEnergy 7

Total Cards - 60

Alolan Vulpix is a new inclusion I'm trying but I feel it can be a good way to fetch Magnezones, Octillery, Starmie, etc. I've found Brigette to be a more consistent means over Nest Balls and find the Starmie helpful when Coronets aren't enough. I cut down on Sycamore as I don't wish to dump valuable resources and play Giratina as Greninja is essentially an auto loss for this deck. Some of my losses were to Greninja.
 
I second Solgaleo Prism Star. You need an option to accelerate Energy if you're locked by Garbotoxin.
 
You NEED to play Solgaleo Prism. It has potential to set up all your attackers and you need a none GX attacker(other then Magnezone) and add a Magneton because Espeon-EX is still a thing. Also, I recommend looking into the next sets Trainers, Steel Frying Pan and Lady.(yes the card is just called Lady) Thay seem to be made for this deck.
 
Giratina is unnecessary. There aren't that many Greninja BREAK decks running around to warrant this card?
 
Here is the DuskZone deck that ive been playing (and also the one that got top 8 at a recent special event).
Just to solidify what the others are saying, SOLGALEO PRISM IS BROKEN. The fact he can chill on your bench, then attach 4-6 energys from your discard after something gets knocked out, and its a normal move?! You would be crazy not to run this card.
2-2 octillery adds consistent draw, and you rely on coronet, retrieval, and abyssal hand to get your energy.
Solgaleo prism really shines against garbotoxin, where its your only way of recovering energy if you cant blower.
Dialga is a good early pokemon while you setup, just burn your hand and overclock out of your dead draw. He can do some nutty stuff with Timeless GX too!

Enjoy! :)
