Try it online on untap to see if you like it.
Or print out proxies.

I’d honestly drop Tag Whistle for a 1-1 Naganadel considering you only play 3 tag teams and 2-2 Naga

Hi Deadeye,

Nice deck. Consider these modifications:

Pokémon:
- 1 Mega Sableye & Tyranitar GX (The deck needs another Umbreon & Darkrai GX to start with an Guzzlord outclasses this card)
- 1 Darkrai Prism (The other acceleration means should suffice)

+ 1 Umbreon & Darkrai GX (perfect starter in this deck)

Trainer:
- 3 Cherish Ball (Tag Whistle with several Tag Team cards is better here)

+ 1 Tag Whistle (to search out Umbreon and Darkrai in addition to Blue and Red)
+ 2 Cynthia & Caitlin (searchable draw and discard card that assists this deck a lot)
+ 1 Beast Ring (since the deck cannot search for it three are required to hit them in time)

I would also attempt to fit in a third Dark City to allow all Basic Darkness Pokémon to retreat for free.

Do you think moving to 12 energy for the 3rd dark city would work?

Hi Deadeye,

Worked out fine for me since Naganadel recycles discarded energies .

try without the nagas
-2 poipole -2 naganadel -3 treasure
+2 Red&Blue +1-1 Weavile line +1 Cherish Ball +2 Tag whistle.

naga might be better but a few people I know have been trying it just using Red&Blue + weavile to some success.
