When creating a thread in the Deck Garage, make sure that you post one deck per thread, you use the correct prefix, you have the set name/card number next to each card, you give a strategy for non-metagame decks, and give translations for all cards not available in English.
When posting in a thread, be sure to explain all your suggestions thoroughly. Additionally, do not ask for advice in another member's thread.

This is CLEARLY theorymon. Seriously, If you have used the deck, you would understand that you would have a Garchomp and a Gabite out T2-3, while you keep streaming Gabites/Gibles/Garchomps to keep the consistency on. W/o Gabite, Garchomp would be terrible as it would be inconsistent and slow(er).

Durant loses Twins, Dual Ball, Collector, Rotom, Recover Energy, Junk Arm. I guess Aggron is a gain, but not enough to replace the use of Junk Arm. Now it only gets 4 Catcher, 4 Crushing Hammer flips, and 4 Enhanced Hammer. And as far as I know, it loses Special Metal (for now, at least). And Garchomp hits the magic 100 mark either way, so it automatically OHKO's Durant. And with 2 Altaria, Garchomp OHKO's without the top 2 discard. Although with Blend Energy becoming popular, it might stand a chance, but I extremely doubt it.
what do you think of aggron/sablye heres my list so far
4 sableye dark explorers
4-4-4 aggron dragon exalted
4 devolution spray
4 rare candy
2 revive
4 pokemon catcher
4 n
4 juniper
3 cheren
4 level ball
3 ultra ball
2 crushing hammer
2 enhanced hammer
10 dark energy
the strategy is to use sableye's junk hunt to get devolution spray/rare candy/level/ultra ball/level ball/pokemon catcher back
and to use devolution spray/rare candy to evolve aron or lairons into aggrons to mill you opponents deck you can mill 12 cards if you evolve 4 aggrons
4 sableye dark explorers
4-4-4 aggron dragon exalted

Durant by it's self is dead just by losing Junk Arm, I've been testing Durant/Aggron for the past few days, and aside from one terrible game (bad shuffling cause me to have a starting hand of Terrakion and nothing but energy, and I did't get a supporter for three turns, but by then I was too far behind anyways.) I've been doing decent with it. The main problem I'm having is prized Aggron's, it hurts this deck quite a bit, but if you keep up the disruption, you can still win.

RayEels is far from being the BDIF. Garchomp, which is already getting much hype, can OHKO a Rayquaza before it even gets an attack off. Trading 1 prize for 2 prizes isn't very good for decks BW-on.

Max Potion? That's like the key card for Devolution Spray.
@OP- I think you can try something with Mew EX. If you play Prism + Blend Energy you can essentially use any of your opponent's attacks. My favorite would be Mew with Fighting to copy Garchomp, then Max Potion + Eviolite to make it hard to kill.
It makes straight Durant a risky play (you really only auto-lose if you prize 2 Durant or more), but there are other ways to run Durant. Think outside the box ~alexmf2 said:
Guys I was thinking of building RayEels but now I'm thinking more Garchomp. Can you post any Garchomp threads or just give me some tips on Garchomp. You can compare garchomp and rayquaza here. Anyways my thoughts on Durant is that straight Durant has no chance as it is way to risky and has lost most of its techs. Durant/Aagron still has a chance though.
Check out the future sight thread in the Competitve collective, I think video 10 is Garchomp.

If you're play testing and Rayquaza can't get an attack off you're playing it wrong. Rayquaza can OHKO your Turn 2 Garchomp after it has done either 120 or 160 (no energy accel, no 2 energy in 1 turn) or perhaps even the gabite/active before it can evolve if the Ray player goes first, it then proceeds to get KOd provided they did damage the second turn, or then takes damage if not. If not, it KOs the second garchomp. If it did die, the second Ray steps up and takes a prize, that's two prizes already, even prize trade so far. The other player responds with his third Garchomp, does damage, gets revenge KOd. By then I have a Raikou on the bench ready to kill off your Altarias, IF you even had any set up, usually my friend gets 0-1 using PikachuMafias deck list (slightly modified).
People shouldn't bash Theorymon either. Everything begins with an idea, once you have the theory down you're ready to begin testing; thorough testing. If you'd like, I'll post draw statistics in a while.
