This would look much neater if you used numbers instead of letters for the quantity.

-1 GHQ
-1 Snowpoint
-2 PETM
-1-1 Dodrio SV
-1 Sableye
-1 PONT
-2 Underground Expidition

+1-1-1 Gengar SF (Allows you to pick-off any benched pixies and such)
+2 BTS (With no rare candy you're better off running a few BTS to help set up multiple stage 1 pokemon at once)
+1 Palmer's Contribution (Recovery is needed in all decks)
+1 Luxury Ball
+1 Manectric PL
+1 Azelf LA (Incase something important is prized, plus allows you to lock pokemon in place if you need to stall)
+1 Uxie LA

Azelf is anoying on the bench so no you hafe to remeber i need room on the bench for techs and some times you find nothing you would need when you use time walk. I think gengar prime would be better for this deck rather than gengar from storm front that gengar isnt very use full for this deck i never really used it much. No doubt palmers can be good for getting spiritombs back in the deck but some times it can creates junk. One manetric is good i use to have two but the other one just became useless and just stays in my hand. No doubt broken time space could be good i might add that in when gengar prime comes out. The problem with luxury ball is that you cant use it when your setting up with spiritomb so no

You don't always have to use Luxury Ball T1/T2 when spiritomb is active, and the chances of it being in your hand early game are pretty low so its hardly dead weight plus the fact that it can search for any pokemon (except lvX) with no drawbacks is good enough reason to at least play 1. Same logic applies to Azelf. It's not something you ALWAYS have to use, you would of course use it after using some search card so you can see what's in your deck and make an accurate guess of whats in the prizes. It doesn't always have to hit the bench.

As for the recovery, well, it's uses are debatable but consider that one of the most common decks you're bound to face (During this format and most likely the MD-Triumphant format) is Luxchomp and Dialgachomp both having no problem shutting down/dragging up Manectric and focus on Dodrio UD essentially throwing a wrench in your boomerang strategy. You should at least consider some form of recovery.
