(I listed variations of many cards, since they pretty much do the same)

At the start, place Pickachu as the 1st Active Pokemon to Evolve to Raichu and hopefully have an Arceus on bench to lower taken damage, with the goal to stack energies with Magnetone for a Magnezone. If you can't place Pikachu or Magnemite as your 1st Active Pokemon, you could place an Arceus instead and wait for it to die of for the Leaf card to appear.

• Remember the Mesprit can only attack when Uxie and Azelf are on the bench.  
• Shaymin should be on the bench only, if it gets pulled to the active spot you will be forced to burn an energy to retreat.

This is also a 3 🔷deck, so you can use it in 3D challenges! 

The basis is to stop the opponent from using any trainers. Psyduck to start until gengar is fully developed. Can use amber to tank.

Bulk is the name of the game when playing with this deck, with disruption in the form of Porygon-Z being useful, especially in circumstances where you need to mitigate damage like against Darkrai EX.  With Hard Coat and Guarded Grill on Melmetal and Bastiodon, respectively, they can eliminate a lot of damage very quickly, allowing for potential mid to late game setup and insane comebacks.  

¡Only Dark Energy!

The strat is simple: 

1. Get Hypno on the Bench and Weezing (with 1 dark energy) on the Active Spot.
2. Use Hypno's ability and attack with Weezing.
3. Let Darkrai EX accumulate energies on the Bench and/or give Weezing a Rocky Helmet for extra chip damage.
4. Enjoy dealing 50-90 damage per turn plus having a 62.5%-75% chance to avoid damage on your turn, every turn (once set up).

Extra tips:

Replacement deck for the Darkrai EX meta with Magnezone until you have all the cards.

Toxicroak is more luck-focused unfortunately but with a well put coin toss it can knock down anything in a couple of turns.

Deck with only dark energies.

Send Druddigon ahead to die with RockyHelmet and run GiantCape on Darkrai or Toxicroak as needed.

Toxicroak should be used as a finisher, prioritize loading Darkrai if possible.

Plain and simple.
Druddigon in front with helmet to stall. 
Only water and lightning energies. 
A Dawn to make unexpected comebacks.
A Pokemon Communication to help that once in a while.

Very balanced deck that requires you to always believe in it. With Dragonite you could be down 0-2 and come back to 3-2 in 1 turn. It is much quicker to build up than it looks. 

Double energy: Water + dark

• damage backrow with Greninja
• swap with Cyrus
• stall with Arbok
