Darkrai EX / Garbodor

this is my Darkrai Garbodor Variant I will be playing at a tournament this saturday and am wondering what modifications should be made

Pokemon:
  • 3 Darkrai Ex
  • 3 Sableye
  • 2 Trubish
  • 2 Garbodor
  • 1 Absol
Trainers:
  • 4 juniper
  • 3 N
  • 2 Bianca
  • 2 Skyla
  • 1 Colress
  • 2 Random Receiver
  • 2 Enhanced Hammer
  • 3 Ultra ball
  • 1 Max Potion
  • 3 Dark patch
  • 1 Switch
  • 3 Pokemon Catcher
  • 2 Dark Claw
  • 3 HTL
  • 3 Float stone
  • 2 Virbank
  • 2 Bicycle
  • 1 Scoop up Cyclone
Energy:
  • 9 Dark

Any help would be great. Should i keep the Absol or take it out? should i keep Dark claw? because really 110 vs 90 on an ex isn't helping and 140 laser bank is only really getting Kyurem or other non EX. Another Ace spec maybe. Bike may not be needed and then energy should it be 9 or 10? also would tool scrapper be essential or only useful? thanks for the help I need to make tweaks before saturday

RE: Darkrai EX/ Garbodor

Moved to the proper forum. Please modify the OP to reflect the rules of this forum.
 
To answer your questions:
Keep Absol, he is bery useful prize exchange wise vs plasma and blastoise.
Dark claw is useful because of kyurem and darkrai also sets up for overall KO's and the math darkrai and absol offer really geps against 170hp EXs.
Dowsing machine will be the most dominant ace spec since you run low lines of catchers, lasers, dark patch, etc.
Your supporter line is big enough to ditch the bikes, Ice tested bikes in here and i fiund them useful but not effective.
The disput between 9-10 energy would beboptional but you only run 3 dark patch and 3 ultra ball, it would just be a bother to the deck unless you put in another patch.
Tool Scrapper is very useful in the VirGen and Plasma matchup, so I would highly reccomend it.

Besides that here are some personal thoughts:
-2 Bianca (there are just simply better supporters for this deck)
-2 Bicycle (read above)
Change ace spec to Dowsing Machine (read above)
+1 Tool Scrapper (read above)
+1 Dark Patch (its useful to have 4 to recover from an attacker getting knocked out. I can go on why this change was made)
+1 Colress (this deck needs big hands late game to "comeback".)
+1 N (dont make me say why)

Hope it helped!
