Strategy:
Basically, the strategy is a normal aggressive Plasma strategy: Preferably start with Lugia or Thundurus and quickly bench multiple Deoxys and get multiple energy into play, hopefully attacking first turn, as I almost always go second. Benching Genesect has won me a good amount of games, since I'm an aggressive player and frequently Red Signal up easy OHKO's.
The typings actually work out quite well against the metagame in my area. Thundurus and Deoxys work well against Yveltal variants. Lugia resists Donphan and other fighting decks and Kyurem is a decent counter to Donphan as well.
In my area, we don't have many people playing Pyroar, in fact, I've only ever played against it twice, losing once for not being able to draw into a supporter, and winning the other by Lysandre-ing/Red Signaling up Litleos and Charizard EX.
Oddly enough, the decks I have trouble with are Night March and Metal decks. I'm also a tad worried about future cities after doing well in a couple previous tournaments and over hearing people say they should try out Pyroar or Plasma Shield decks, haha...
I'm a pretty new player (started learning metagame last year and began actually playing competitively this year), so any suggestions are appreciated!
Also, if I'm doing anything wrong, please tell me. Thanks!
 
I wouldn't think Kyurem would be best, but Beartic FuF counters Pyroars quite well... though I'm not too sure what would be best to switch (2-2 for Beartic is often good).
