So, after playing Pokémon TCG with friends for about a year, I decided to start playing competitively in local tournaments. I chose to make this deck because it is a bit cheaper than other decks and counters a lot of popular decks being used in the current format. Please note that I do not want to use Catchers or EX because I believe both somewhat ruin the format and destroy a lot of potential strategies. Also, I do not have the money for these cards.
Strategy
I am guessing most of you know how this deck works, but in case not I will explain. Basically, set up Garbodor ASAP to hinder your opponents pokemon with abilities. (Eeelektrik, Blastoise, Keldeo, Darkrai, etc.) Attach a tool to Garbodor (preferably Rescue Scarf) and while in the process of setting up Garbodor, set up a Terrakion as well. Attach Exp. Share to benched Terrakions to cause energy acceleration and take advantage of the nice Retaliate Attack. If set up well, you will be dealing 90 damage every turn. This is great because is 2-hits all EX Pokemon, and even if Terrakion is KO'd, it isn't an EX, so you can essentially trade prize cards until you win.
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!
