Looking to get some suggestions on this semi-budget deck.
Any feedback is welcome.
 
I would recommend mixing the FLI ones in as well, especialy Gible since you can search it out with Brooklet (which I also encourage adding for consistency, especially since Brigette will be rotating soon). So, just all fighting Gible, and then for the Garchomps maybe a 2-2 split or so of Fighting and Dragon. This way you can mix up your offense and defense in case Gardy or Goli come knocking.

I notice your deck doesn't include any Choice Bands. You should be maxing them out (four copies) in order to inflict the most damage. You should also include Diancie {*} in order to boost your damage each turn to 250; that KO's everything in the game except Lunala GX.

You might also consider Buzzwole GX since it can start slapping immediately while you get your 'Chomp's set up.

So, overall, my suggestions:

- 1 Professor's Letter (rotating)
- 2 Skyla (rotating)
- 4 N (rotating)
- 1 Wishful Baton
- 1 Riolu
- 4 Gible UPR
- 2 Garchomp UPR
- 1 Timer Ball

+ 2 Guzma
+ 1 Diancie {*}
+ 4 Choice Band
+ 1 Brooklet Hill
+ 1 Buzzwole GX
+ 4 Gible FLI
+ 2 Garchomp FLI
+ 1 Tapu Lele GX
 
Latias prism and mysterious treasures are a must tested it out last night post rotation I ran only 5 supporters with 4 acro,4 treasure, 4 ultra ran quite well was only having a hard time with it because it's hard to stream attackers in a deck that requires 2 attachments. Shrine of punishment is also really good in this deck if you need to hire 240 or 210 and whiff the choice band you can take the knock out so long as you get a little damage on them b4 hand.
 
One thing I forget to mention is that if you can't afford (or find) Lele, you can use Alolan Vulpix to help accelerate Lucario and Chomp to set up Precognitive Aura faster.

Thanks for the suggestions! I am probably going to avoid Lele and Buzz as that would be costly and disrupt the focus of my deck. However, I will surely add in the rest and see how it goes. Additionally, wouldn't a Shrine of Punishment be enough rather than adding in 4 choice bands (allows 210 to be hit within one turn)?

With the new Fairy-type cards in Fairy Rise, Gardy's gonna be coming back. Although you do make a good point; maybe cut the Choice count down to two or so.
 
I have a similar deck that I keep playing around with. I call it #1 Waifu Deck. I still have Wally in it so it's been helpful. Diance is nice, choice bands are a must, and Cynthia is what makes the train run on time with Royal Blades. The fighting type gibbygabchomps made things a lot more easier. I know it's not going to be a tournament legal deck, but that doesn't bother me. I really only have the time to play the game small-time.
 
I got Buzzwole GX from a lucky pull and so decided to test it in this deck. It really does help out a lot, since it sets up blazingly fast and can start softening the opponent up good while Chompy gets going, so I do still recommend that if you're able to do it.
 
Hoping for a lucky pull like yours :D. I will definitely look to add Buzzwole-GX into my deck, when possible. I may be asking on the wrong thread, but do any of you have Diancie on PTCGO that is up for trade. I've got the Fighting Garchomp and Guzma. Just missing the bands, Diancie and Brooklet Hill.

Testing has gone well with this deck. However, I am still debating Brooklet Hill as I fear that it will end up helping the other deck more than myself or would it still beneficial? Any thoughts?
