Strategy:

Ok so the plan here is to get Trevenant active turn 1 with Wally, so your opponent can get no items as fast as possible. Bats are there to do bonus damage and provide free retreat if they get dragged active. I have decent search ability in Repeat Ball. AZ and Super Scoop Up are there to pick up bats.

Thanks for the input!

I will edit this post or make a new one tomorrow morning when I wake up, just in case no one else replies

I will say I love your deck idea, I can see a couple of changes but you know what you want to do, and you have built around that which is nice, I will say though I don't know the state of the metagame you play in but I would add Super Scoop Ups, assuming you aren't a head flipping failure like me, they should allow for more damage per turn since you don't really want to use your supporter for the turn on AZ if you can help it
 
Given the relatively low HP of your Poké, I'd suggest you incorporate a Lysandre's Trump Card in order to recover and recycle discarded and KOd resources.
 
Hi TuxedoBlack, thanks for the input. I had a Lysandre's Trump Card in my original list, but removed it for a Muscle Band. If I were to put one in with the newly updated list, what would you suggest I take out?

Thanks,

I would be tempted to take out the Startling Megaphone for the Lysandre's Trump Card, your Trevenant blocks the placement of tools, but all it takes to get item use back is a Lysandre. Otherwise you could drop an N, but I prefer having four of those in a deck, and it would be one of the last things you would think of getting rid of. You could go down another AZ, now that you have the Super Scoop Ups he is less necessary (still run one since it is pretty decent in a bats deck).

Have you tested the deck against people? I wonder if you have enough search power, only 3 balls, and the computer search isn't a lot, since I don't know how well Wally works out yet, I feel from past experiences with other supporters, you probably only want to use Wally once maybe twice a game, and basically every other turn N, Professor or Colress. I would almost want to go down to a 3-3 Trevenant line adding 2 Ultra Balls, but Wally might be enough to alleviate the slight lack of search power

I can run a mock test once I have finished my assignments so I will get back to you on each of the changes if I have time

Hi Vracken, thanks for the input. I've tested against several different decks such as Toad/Puff, Yveltal, Plasma, LandBats, Donphan, etc. I find that on average, I use 2 Wally per game, but I am hesitant to cut them because I want to try and start with them in my opening hand. I plan on testing by taking out 1 Wally for 1 Ultra Ball and taking out 1 AZ for 1 Ultra Ball. Either one of these options sounds consistent and I will let my results be known.

Thanks
