I am a seasoned player. This is a deck that I built on a whim and didn'tt plan to use officially but to my surprise, it is strong and consistent during my meta testings at League. Victories include 3 Blastroise/Keldeo, 1 TDK , 2 Yveltal/Darkrai, 1 Yveltal/Garbodor, and 2 Rayboar. I have not faced against Genesect with this deck as of now.

I'm still improving the list and any criticism is welcome.

Pokemon:

  • 4 Rattata PLF
    4 Raticate BDC
    3-3 Forretress FLF
    2-2 Milotic FLF
    1-1 Swellow XY (optional)
Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums:

  • 2 Pokemon Fan Club
    2 Skyla
    3 Professor Juniper
    1 N
    1 Lysandre
    1 Professor's Letter
    3 Hypnotoxic Laser
    2 Rescue Scarf (optional)
    4 Level Ball
    2 Ultra Ball
    1 Sacred Ash
    1 Devolution Spray (optional)
    2 Random Receiver
    1 Startling Megaphone
    1 Computer Search / Dowsing Machine
Energy:

  • 3 DCE
    9 Any Basic Energy

Strategy:
The deck simply uses Raticate's Super fang to bring your opponents Active Pokemon down to 10HP paired up with a lasers to knockout Pokemon between turns and Forretress during the next turn.

RE: Raticate

Instead of raticate I would recommend using gourgeist. It has more HP and a lower energy requirement to do essentially the same attack.
