Here are a few of my card ideas for crimson invasion:

UB-04 Kartana GX - steel - HP170
Basic

[M][M] steel slash: 40 damage. During your opponent's next turn, prevent all effects of attacks, including damage, done to this Pokémon by Pokémon-EX and Pokémon-GX.

[C][C][C] tridimensional iron cutter: 50+ damage. This attack does 20 more damage for each [M] Energy attached to this Pokémon.

[M][M][M] supreme strike GX: 200 damage. This attack's damage isn't effected by Weakness, Resistance or any other effects on your opponent's Active Pokémon. (You can't use more than 1 GX attack per game.)

Weakness: fire ×2
Resistance: psychic -20
Retreat cost: 0

UB-05 Guzzlord GX - dark - HP210
Basic

[D][C][C] maelstorm: 50× damage. Discard as many of your Benched Pokémon as you like. This attack does 50 damage times the amount of Benched Pokémon you discarted this way.

I don't think this is a really good card. I'd rather use Fisherman than do the same thing (with a slightly worse effect) as an attack.

Late game, after your raichu GX's get knocked out, you use this to grab energy back and use magnezone to dump it all immediately.
Sure, but wouldn't it still make more sense to use energy retrieval/fisherman or something? Especially considering your opponent is almost guaranteed to get a knock out after you use the attack.

  • Emolga - It's been 3 years waiting for you. Anyways, good with Magnie, not good with Raikou. 2-3 Geodudes

The KO is irrelevant in most games because you're playing a GX deck, you can play a 7 prize game with it.

Keep in mind that fisherman and other late game recovery supports get harder to use in a meta without vs seeker. You'll often end up discarding it early or end up running through your Leles, which are your only way to pull it on demand.
