Expanded ToadKazam

So, I have an upcoming expanded tournament and I was contemplating playing a mix of Seismitoad/alakazam. The thought process behind this is the same as the previous toad/bats. Toad item locks while alakazam does extra damage. Then if needed, alakazam comes out for extra damage (of course removing item lock but oh welz). I contemplated the Virbank city Gym as my stadium, but I thought if i needed to use Alakazam, dimension valley would help me out better. I was hoping to get some input on how to make this deck better. I understand it may not be the most META expanded deck, or even amazing... however I think it has potential and will likely be pretty fun as I really enjoy the concept behind M Alakazam.

I don't see much point in the mystery energy. You already have Scoop Up and AZ. A good idea would be to replace the 2 with 2 Shaymin EX, 2 Jirachi EX, or a split between the 2.
