This deck is based on countering GXs.
The main goal is to have Bridgette send multiple rattatas onto the bench and evolve them into raticate. Then, you attach a choice band and do 90 damage (100 with reverse valley) with the free move, enhanced fang. Once one dies, you attach a counter energy onto Shaymin and do 130 damage with its counter move rally back. The 220-230 damage is sure to knock out about 1/2 the GX's/EX's used in current meta. I added golosipod and wimpod to be able to tank hits from GX Pokemon while dealing massive damage as an option, that is, if Shaymin doesn't work to kill a GX. The Bodybuilding Dumbells are an option if Raticate doesn't have enough hp to tank a hit when needed (they have the same purpose for golosipod as well). Professor kukui is for the 240/250 hp GX's (120 [enhanced fang =10 damage + 50 due to an item +30 due to choice band + 20 due to kukui +10 due to reverse valley] + 120-150 [Rally back = 30 + 90 due to dead raticate +30 due to choice band]. I was also thinking of adding a 1-1 Flareon line for a metagross counter. Id really appreciate your feedback and will do anything to make my deck better.
 
Flareon isn't legal in Standard it rotated. Drop the wally, it's only useful on turn 1 if you go 2nd and open with A.Ratata so you can attack the first turn. Replace Reverse Valley with Devoured Field from CSI (so you don't give opposing metal decks damage reduction). Probably don't need 4 shaymin either. I'd probably add a 4th sycamore and another dumbell
