2 Tapu Lele GX GUR
2 Remoraid BKT (Wild River)
2 Octillery BKT

Trainers

4 N
4 Professor Sycamore
3 Guzma
2 Brigette
1 Mallow
1 Acerola
1 Professor Kukui

If anything -1 Bridgette for +1 Lusamine. Also -8 Water Energy for +8 Secret Rare Water Energy XD.

I do feel that in a deck that uses energy acceleration from this discard and does not always benefit from massive draws like Gardevoir does, Zoroark-GX is the way forward here. If it is not available to you, however, Octillery is just fine. 4 Aqua Patch is a must, and if you really wanted to update your deck with Crimson Invasion, I would just go with -1 Acerola -1 Field Blower -1 Brigette +1 Counter Catcher +1 Lusamine +1 Aqua Patch. A nice, solid deck you have here though.

I would take out a sycamore and something else and add two brooklet hills as they are extremly useful for getting octillery out/getting more pokemon looks like a pretty solid list though. I would also take a look at michael pramowats list from the league cup he won featured in a pokebeach article.

So your saying I should drop the Octillery line and put in a 2-2 zoroark line?

Yes if you can get them zoroark is much better than octillery in this deck it allows you to discard extra water energy to get off aqua patches quicker. so
-2 remoraid
-2 octillery
-1 acerola
+2 zorua
+2 zoroark gx
+1 aqua patch

Id also recomend either 2 kukui or 2 mallow not a split and id personally play 2 kukui as it is going to allow you to get 1 hits places you normally wouldnt. example if you flying flip once you can now 1 hit a gardevoir with kukui and band.
