Big Basics Deck Discussion

So I'm in the process creating another deck. This time I am going to try something that is uncommon to the Meta.

Right now I'm leaning to a Big Basic variant. I was looking through my card album and I was considering the following Pokemon:
-Mewtwo EX
-Virzion EX
-Bouffalant
-Either Tornadus EX (PLF) or Dialga (PLB)
>Tornadus EX for windfall and Jet Blast (hitting 180 with 4 Plasma Energies)
 
Tornadus EX / Thundurus EX would be a more convenient combo. Thundurus EX seems to be needed to recover the lost Plasma Energies.

Dialga EX would work with Thundurus EX too but the deck needs Prism Energy and Blend Energy which makes it vulnerable to Enhanced Hammer and energy discard in general.

I would lean more toward Tornadus but would like to see a decent Dialga EX deck.

If I went that route I'd have to include WLFM energies / Lightning energies on top of the Grass energies I have and I'm already using Virzion EX as an energy accelerator so two accelerators is too much. Plus, Thundurus can only attach to other Team Plasma Pokemon and if I don't have a TP badge on Mewtwo or Virzion, it will do no good.

Thundurus is only good for a TP heavy deck which this is not.
 
I've seen so many variants of big basics but those three are definitely staples. I played a little bit around with Dialga / Virizion / Mewtwo and I mainly used just Virizion EX setting up dialga most times (occasionally mewtwo) and colress machine most the plasma energies onto Dialga and 2HKO.
