Hey everybody, just joined in search of some help refining my decks or knowing when to quit on them :D, starting with this one. I'm generally just working with what I've got so I can get wins with some consistency. I feel like trainer cards are where I'm really lacking. First post of several so please forgive any bad formatting.

Pokémon - 14

2 Eevee SUM 101
2 Spinda PRC 115
2 Umbreon-GX SUM 142
2 Inkay AOR 45
2 Malamar AOR 46
2 Tyranitar-EX AOR 42
2 M Tyranitar-EX AOR 92

Trainer Cards - 30

Item:
1 Evosoda GEN 62
1 Professor's Letter XY 123
4 Max Elixir BKP 102
3 Level Ball AOR 76
2 Ultra Ball SUM 135
2 Tyranitar Spirit Link AOR 81
1 Paint Roller AOR 79
2 Float Stone BKT 137
3 VS Seeker PHF 109

Supporter:
1 Lysandre AOR 78
3 Professor Sycamore BKP 107
4 Skyla BKT 148
2 N FAC 105
1 Delinquent BKP 98

Energy - 16

4 Double Colorless Energy FAC 114
12 Darkness Energy Energy 7

The idea is to start with Spinda to prime the opponents pokemon with uproar for 1 hit K.O.'s from Tyranitar, or stall and recover discards with Malamar while I power up Tyranitar. Umbreon-GX is easy to field with level ball and is mainly used to pivot into Tyranitar to prime opponents or absorb damage by strafing between the two of them. I've been considering removing Malamar in favor of 2 more Spinda cards?
 
Malamar and Spinda both look like fluff to me. Feels like a straight 3-3 Umbreon 2-2 M Ttar EX line plus Shaymin EX for draw (or Octillery or Oraguru if you don't have Shaymin). I get that you're trying the spread the damage for Ttar to sweep later, but Umbreon is going dishing out some very quick pain and by the time TTar is set up on your bench it's really not going to matter. Not sure why you need 4 Skyla, but you definitely need 4 Sycamore. With Energy Evo on eevee Evo Soda is not necessary.

I went ahead and made a decklist for you to look over. If you could fit EXP Share in there that would help you a ton. Sorry the Trainers section is a little all over the place I was just adding things as I thought of them.

Thanks! I'm crossing my fingers that the next versus reward is Shaymin EX :D, really appreciate the trainer suggestions.
 
To answer some questions, I wouldn't bank on Shaymin being in the ladder, while it would be nice I seriously doubt it I'd gonna happen.

Also, yes, Parallel City is pretty much the best stadium for a deck that doesn't benefit from a stadium itself.
 
Got it, I had to sub Octillery but I just finished trading for the last few trainers I needed. Hoopa was a nice addition. I'll play for awhile and see if I can afford to skim anything out for EXP Share. Thanks again!
