Like most decks we still have counters/weakness to Deciplume / Volcanion/ Turbo darkrai
but apart from that, it still has many favorable match ups with Mega mewtwo / mega ray / gardevoir ex and the new GX's with high weakness to Double colorless.

How does GUR improve upon this deck?
Adding 10 more dmg on top of 110 with Dhelmise wont make a difference in most match ups. Starting with it or even having no more room on the bench seems like main issue. I will still need 2hko.

Field Blower has been needed in standard for a long time. Getting rid of Fighting fury belts / bursting balloons and now choice band. Im thinking of adding at least 1 more.

Also lapras gx after a lot of play testing this deck, it keeps on doing what it does best. Most games i will start out with a strong lead only be stalled a turn by its GX attack + rough seas. Unable to recover after its first knock out. Main reason why i run a Pokémon center lady in this deck to the point where i want to run two.

Tauros GX, i havent tested it in any decks yet but playing vs him i could consider him to be a decent addition to the deck. Great at stalling out attacks, letting me set up but also letting my opponent do the same. I would guess most decks that i run into will be able to do more damage if let set up then being able to ohko tauros gx or m scizor ex.

Also why does no one run metal special energy -10 doesnt seem like alot but it could sometimes uneven the math with some attacks that would otherwise 2hko.

Thoughts?
