I like this deck that I built, I just need some help figuring out some small kinks in the deck.

Pokémon - 12
* 4 Eevee SUM 101
* 4 Sylveon-GX GRI 92
* 2 Eevee-GX PR-SM SM174
* 2 Eevee-GX PR-SM SM176

Trainer Cards - 34
* 3 Crushing Hammer SUM 115
* 2 Professor Kukui SUM 128
* 2 Team Skull Grunt SUM 133
* 2 Enhanced Hammer GRI 124
* 1 Field Blower GRI 125
* 3 Acerola BUS 112
* 2 Bodybuilding Dumbbells BUS 113
* 2 Guzma BUS 115
* 1 Mount Lanakila BUS 118
* 1 Plumeria BUS 120
* 1 Counter Catcher CIN 91
* 2 Gladion CIN 95
* 2 Lusamine CIN 96
* 1 Mars UPR 128
* 4 Missing Clover UPR 129
* 2 Diantha FLI 105
* 1 Pal Pad FLF 92
* 2 Judge BKT 143

Energy - 14
* 10 Fairy Energy SUM 172
* 4 Double Colorless Energy FCO 114

The plan is to quickly get Sylveon erly in the game with Eeveeand energy evolution then later on if sylveon gets ko'd to use Eevee GX as a buff while you try to find another Sylveon.

Diana is a great cardfor any fary deck because it lets you draw extra cards if you're fairy type pokemon is ko'd

The goal is to get rid of all of the prize cards and then use Sylveon to find the 4 clevers even if you know you can ko your aponent to get the last prize card for free. That is where the 'Deviant' in the deck name comes from.
 
I have only played against sylveon, but it would seem to me they never have a problem getting sylveon down, at the expense of some mulligans maybe, and having the eevee gx might keep you from getting turn one sylveon if you start it, since you don't play any ball search (as per usual). Also the GX attack might be fun to get 3 clovers back and cheat an extra prize card (with help from a diantha), but sylveon's gx attack is just really good in a stall deck, and I wouldn't want to skip it.

Other than that, what seem to be the kinks you've had so far?

I keep getting shut down by anti ability cards and the only time I ever win with this deck os if I go first.
 
Just a reminder, not just for you: Mulligans might give your opponent an advantage in the start, but never get discouraged about it. My secondary deck is a Wishiwashi GX deck and I usually get 4 mulligans and still win. Might not help the deck, but to me, it is good advice. I have seen some people getting troubled over the fact that they mulligan too much.
 
So with pikarom so prevalent I have won every game I have gone against a sylveon deck by turn two or three. It’s too easy to one shot even with dumbbells. I think the tag team one might be a different story and will bring the sylveon stall back possibly
