Strategy: Set up Donphan Prime first thing, and start earthquaking. Build up a damaged bench, then fighting tag into Machamp Prime. Start hitting for 150-170 damage. Machamp SF is an Umbreon counter.

NOTE: Cities is in two weeks, and I want to perfect this deck. There is a chance for a lot of Luxchomp, but my area runs a lot of meta/rogue decks, so I never know what I'm playing. Thanks in advance!

-1 palmers (2 is a bit overkill)
+1 regice (to help you vs vilegar, trainer lock murders your deck)

 

[sturtle]

Regice is an awful start, and I don't like it, really. I've tried using it and it never helped.

 

[Afro-G]

I don't think Junk Arm is really necessary since you play few trainer cards, but I don't know what you should put in instead. :/

2 warp point to prevent regi start?

 

[Zangoose]

Or you could just attach to Regice and fighting tag it to the bench bro. Donphan's just not that great in this IMO. I've had much more success without Donphan than with. IF you end up playing Donphan, make it a 1-1, that way you have a better chance in the Gyarados matchup. But it takes skill to win the Gyarados match anyway.
