Strategy:

Malamar EX because of it's ability with putting on an energy from your hand to cause sleep, Hypnotoxic's Darkrai black stars are for insurance, Darkrai EX for free retreat cost. Help would be really appreciated!
 
-3 Honchkrow - I feel like you have way too many Pokemon and not enough draw.
-3 Murkrow
-1 Malamar EX - You really don't want to attach to it in the first place because it's attack is not that good. Zoroark and Yveltal outclass its damage output / Energy cost ratio very easily.
-2 Shauna - If you are playing in the Expanded format, there's no reason to even play Shauna in me opinion as there are a lot better choices for draw Supporters.
-2 Pokemon Catcher - Lysandre is better overall, and VS Seeker makes it easier to get a hold of it when you need it.
-1 Sparkling Robe - Not worth it.
-1 Trick Coin - No Malamar; no reason for Trick Coin.
-3 Darkness Energy

+2 Zoroark - More consistent Zoroark line. Brutal Bash is a really good attack, but of course you need plenty of Darkness Pokemon to do effective damage.
+2 Zorua
+1 Yveltal EX
+2 N
+1 Professor Sycamore
+1 Lysandre
+3 VS Seeker
+2 Ultra Ball - This and Dark Patch are too good to play just as one-ofs.
+2 Dark Patch

Hope you find these suggestions helpful!
