Hi, so I've been toying with this deck but would like to have some more input in what could be changed.

Pokémon: 13
  • 1 Entei (AnO 14)
  • 1 Hoopa EX (AnO 89)
  • 2 Shaymin EX (RoS 77)
  • 3 Charizard EX (XY121)
  • 3 Volcanion (StS 25)
  • 3 Volcanion EX (StS 26)
Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums: 35
  • 1 Energy Retrievel
  • 1 Escape Rope
  • 2 Max Elixir
  • 1 Super Rod
  • 3 Trainers' Mail
  • 4 Ultra Ball
  • 4 VS Seeker
  • 3 Fighting Fury Belt
  • 2 Float Stone
  • 1 Lysandre
  • 2 N
  • 2 Pokémon Ranger
  • 4 Professor Sycamore
  • 1 Skyla
  • 1 Fisherman
  • 3 Scorched Earth
Energy: 12
  • 2 Double Colorless Energy
  • 10 Fire Energy
Strategy:

So basically the idea is to get a Charizard up with 4 energy and a FFB and start hitting with Combustion Blast while Pokémon Ranger allows for it to be used on consecutive turns when needed. Volcanion EX is there to provide support in the form of extra damage when needed.

Volcanion is the best starter with float stones to get him out for Charizard. Entei is there as an alternative non-ex attacker.

I've been trying out a couple of builds with and without Max Elixer for example and I'm not sure which way I should go, atm I'm in the middle with running 2.

Anyway thanks for reading and any suggestions are more than welcome!
