That's funny. Didn't think I'd see this on here. Anyways, I think you should play at least three Fighting Fury Belt to try and prolong Guzzlord GX until you find another. Also maybe up the Random Receiver count to four. Overall though, not bad. Keep up the good work!
 
updated
are there any more decks to build?

I don't know. I'm currently working on a Buzzwole GX deck that could fit here, but I was planning on Rayquaza/Eels, Keldeo/Blastoise, Vespiquen variants, quad Xuritree GX, and some others (haven't come across many Standard lists so far). Feel free to use some of these ideas (please leave at least one for me to work on though, I enjoy doing this kind of work). Good luck!
 
I'm working on venasaur genasect. wait.... i cant do that because genasect is 15$

also can someone make a brutal bash zouark deck?

You can try Venusaur with something else though, maybe Tapu Bulu GX or Virizion EX/Genesect EX (which aren't bad by themselves) instead. I wish Shining Genesect were cheaper as well though (I'm missing two for my list at the moment).

Wow! That is a lot of lists! Keep up the good work!

can pretty much any deck be budget if you replace the leles with random recivers

Yes, somewhat. I have found that Random Receiver isn't as useful as running either another Supporter you value or just increasing consistency of your list by adding more of a particular card (like Octillery, Rare Candy, etc.). I like to play one in a few decks, but I normally don't go above that. Keep in mind, this is just my preference, so if you think that the card is worth the space, finding room for it shouldn't be to hard. Hope this helps!

Correct, just depends on what you want to replace them with. Random Receiver is a viable option to replace them if you want it.

Cool idea, but I suggest you play just Tapu Koko promos (almost the same price as Decidueye GX) and some CRI Gengar to clear the 30 damage mark (with the Gnawing Curse Ability) after Flying Flip. Also, maybe add in some energy denial to compliment Gnawing Curse. Overall though, not bad. Good job!

I don't mean to picky, but would you mind posting the abbreviations for the sets from which the Pokémon, Trainers, and Special Energy come from (you can exclude basic energy) so everyone can easily recognize them? Some folks may be new here, so if they go to search up (for instance) "Mew", tons of different Mews show up (I'm assuming for this list you mean the EVO Mew that has the ability which prevents damage dealt to it from evolutions). It would greatly be appreciated, thanks!

By the way, have you tested any of these decks? Most of them I haven't heard of, so I'd be interested in hearing how they function and everything. Some of them are very interesting and I'm intrigued by how they'd do against other decks. I'll have to build some of them at some point. Anyways, keep up the good work!

Flavorful Pineapple is my deck tester, I told him to feel free to have free reign on this thread and test whatever decks he likes instead of me sending him a list to test.

Great! Glad to see some more people get on board. Seems like we have lots going on at the moment. Awesome work @AFEX, this thread is definitely going in a good direction! Keep up the good work!

most of them I haven't tested, i will add the set lists on later when i have acess to a computer with ptcgo

Don't worry about it, it seems that we already have a deck tester on board. Feel free to test if you like though, the more the merrier! On the topic of sets, you don't have to worry about all of them (sorry if that's what I implied), just maybe the ones that are the most relevant to the strategy (like the Mew for example). It's fine if you don't though, just keep it in mind. Thanks!

I think the more relevant card that need set abbreviation was Gourgeist but i fixed it and put CRI in parenthesis.
