Strategy:

Possible Techs:
Garchomp Lv. X
Garchomp Lv. X's Restore attack could get Gyrados on the bench with FOUR Magikarp in the discard to do an extra 30 to make Gyrados's attack more viable in today's game at the cost of speed. I'd reccomend taking out a few Azelf and Plus Power to add in the Garchomp line and adding in a Premier Ball.


Use Battle Compressor to get 3 Magikarp in the discard. Then Gyrados w/ Team Plasma Badge, 3 Deoxys, Plus Power, and Hypnotoxic Laser (+ Virbank) you're doing 160 damage, and with a second plus power its a OHKO on most popular EXs for NO ENERGY. This deck can be setup on the second turn if you get a half-decent hand. Not super competitive anymore, but it's still super fun!
 
Even though you have battle compressor, I would still try Felicitys Drawing and Regice (Legends Awakened) for discarding Magikarps. Also, try some call energy or warp energy to help against Mr. Mime (Mysterious Treasures.)
 
this would go out of the way and probably be too slow but battle compressor 4 magikarp 2 gyarados into your discard, then use garchomp lv.x (Majestic Dawn) to get Gyarados out of your discard and onto your bench as a basic. This also makes it invincible against DRX Golurk's Devolution punch, which would do 60 damage and devolve gyarados, thus OHKO'ing magikarp. also Archie's Trump Card would be a good (and faster) addition in the future. combine with what you've already mentioned and you're looking at 200 damage.
 
The reason this deck is remotely competitive is because it sets up for about 150 damage first turn. If I use Garchomp it gets about 180 third or fourth turn. I actually had already thought about running Archie's Trump Card, but it has to be the only card in your hand. To run it and make use of it you have to practically build your deck around it. Are there any cards that you recommend for getting one specific card in my hand (Without taking up too much space.)?
 
i get your point.
however if you could fit it in, Broken time-space could (with a bit of luck) get you a turn 2 Garchomp LV.X
 
Added "Possible Techs" Section! :)

Added Broken Time-Space
Removed Deoxys and Plasma Badge for Muscle Band (more consistent)
