Expanded Expanded Latios&Latias Tag Team

This tag team is unplayable in Standard but it can actually be quite decent and fast in Expanded thanks to the DDE synergy. (Unlike Ultra Necrozma, L&L can discard it to fuel their attack.) Downside is that L&L has a damage cap whereas Ultra Necrozma doesn't, however, the number to hit right now is 210-240 (not counting Wailord) anyway and with a band you can also push the damage up to 270 if you need to.

Since 270 still isn't enough to KO a Wailord tag team I'm thinking of adding 1 Kukui instead if a Sycamore so that with 1 Giratina spread+Kukui+CB it's possible to hit 300. Not sure how realistic it is to pull it off though, (can be a bit problematic is Wailord is already in the active) but the option is there.

I'm also thinking of cutting the Marshadow and adding a regular Necrozma-GX, in case all 4 DDEs get lost zone'd - at the same time maybe it's possible take enough KOs before that happens, and there's also Giratina. At any rate, I think the card that is the least important is Marshadow, (mostly because this is one of those decks with bench space problems) so even if I won't add the Necrozma-GX, Marshadow can also be replaced with the Kukui I mentioned earlier, or with another Float Stone, since that will be another popular Faba target. I don't want to get rid of the Wobb and definitely want to keep Mime since it protects the bench from the GX attack of both Pikarom and Wailord.

Any thoughts?

I know Parallel is good but have you thought about sky field? It solves your bench space problem

Nah it's not worth it since I'm not playing Shaymin-EX and then I'd have to play Sudowoodo as well. I guess I was exaggerating a little, since bench space should not really be a problem, but with all the techs I'd have to cut Marshadow since that's the one I will not have enough bench space for usually and its role is the least important compared to other techs.
