Standard Espeon/Garbodor with Umbreon

[bateloche]

I'm trying to update the common Espeon/Garbodor list to deal better with Necrozma (DW hard counters it) and maybe to improve the Zoroark match up.

The idea that seems to be working better is to have an Umbreon-GX alongside Espeon as another evolution of Eevee, it could be a small change and Umbreon spread can hep get some KOs latter with Espeon's Divide.

What I got so far was the following. How could it be improved?

I though of adding Professor's Letter to this deck to help getting the right energy kind, and some consistency tweaks might be appreciated by this list too...

Umbreon does nothing to help. Espeon already has the KO potential to kill Necrozma, Dawn Wings, Buzzwole, and is better against Zoroark than Umbreon. With a Choice Band, Espeon OHKOs Necrozma with 0 Energy on it, a Dawn Wings with 3 Energy, a Buzzwole with 1 Energy, and against Zoroark, you have this equation:
T2 Divide 60:40 to 2 Zorua. If the opponent evolves the damaged Zorua to prevent more prizes being taken by Guzma or Koko, which is a much better sniper than Umbreon, then with Choice Band, Psybeam does 60(-20)=40+40(previous damage)=80. Zoroark attacking with a DCE means you can KO with Psychic next turn(60 base+60[2 energy]+30[band]=150[-20]=130+80[previous damage]=210). If they don't attach a DCE, you can just set up your other Pokemon and Psybeam Zoro until they do something.

This is small, but play all BKP Trubbish. They're just better. Crushing Hammer as an attack is better than discarding 1 wild card. Plus 10 damage, in case that ever matters.
