Here are some suggestions.

-1 Darkrai GX (2 should be enough to recover energy especially since you already have dark patches)

-1 Darkness Energy (Have used 12 in my deck and seemed to be sweet spot)

-1 Trainer's Mail (2 should be plenty)

+1 Max Elixir (hitting enough max elixir's to ramp energy is huge)

+1 Tapu Lele GX (added consistency and could attack if you don't want to put a darkrai in harm's way)

+1 Colress (OP draw support in this deck especially since you fill your bench quickly)
 
When you start testing your deck, you might find it somewhat inconsistent due to "low" card-draw Supporter count. IMO, 5 is woefully insufficient; consider bumping this count up to at least 7. Also, should your opponent Item-lock (there are at least 3 different ways to do this), you would be at a significant disadvantage.

You may want to consider incorporating a few Weakness Policy; otherwise you could perhaps easily have an auto-loss to a number of popular Fighting decks.

From my experience, I find Tapu Lele GX to be a better alternative than Shaymin EX for at least 2 simple reasons including: 1. Tapu Lele GX has more HP and has no Weakness; 2. It is a bit "easier" to search and get a Tapu Lele GX since you can also use the Mysterious Treasure Item (for 1 discarded resource vs. 2 for Ultra Ball). 1 Shaymin EX and 1 Tapu Lele GX may be a better alternative to 2 Shaymin EX.

I don’t know, the Supporter count seems fine to me.

Should an opponent establish an "early" (e.g., Toad's Quaking Punch) Item Lock, the 5 card-draw Supporters will not, most likely, allow this deck to setup due to its high dependence upon Items.
 
I don't see reason to play mysterious treasure. I'm thinking about Lele. Supporters are fine while I have tested, if you were to add any supporters, what would you take away? There isn't enough space in the deck to go crazy with supporters especially since I have 4 VS seekers
