Could anyone humor me and list some unlimited trainers that discourage retreating?

Yes, yes, I know that making a competitive unlimited deck is stupid because the games only last a turn. But I'm making a few themed decks for my friends and me to play with, and I'm working on my Erika-themed one. Because the Pokemon I've chosen invoke a lot of special conditions, I'm looking for trainer cards to help make sure the opponent doesn't retreat. Obviously some energy removals will be good, but does anyone have some other ideas? Trainer cards that discourage the use of trainer cards (if there is such a thing) would be helpful also.

Also if anyone has the time, could anyone go over what some of the different healing cards are across the span of the whole game? Obviously there's potions, super potions, max potions, and Pokemon centers, and I am also familiar with all of the berries, but are there any other good ones I should know about?

Thank you so much if anyone can help me!
 
Broken Ground Gym is the antimatter version of Skyarrow Bridge. I don't know what set it's in, though.
 
Slowking Neo-G will certainly discourage Trainer Cards! Check it out.

After you've finished playing your own Trainer Cards, play Chaos Gym to further discourage your opponent, if you want.

As for healing cards, there is a healing Item with a powerful effect, but it requires a coin-flip to work. If you pack plenty of Item Finder, that will surely increase your chances of landing heads with it, though. Its Life Herb!

mirage stadium from aquapolis?

makes each player flip upon announcing retreat.
tails fails the retreat, no discard of energy though.

there is also, octillery from expedition who when your opponent retreats,
they have to discard ALL energy attached to their active instead of paying the
retreat cost only.
