Where are your Thundurus? that card really gives the deck the much desired early game pressure with a T2 Disaster Volt plus it helps with getting {L} energy into the discard pile. Also, Twins? FSL? Great Ball? and why so little {L} energy? i know the deck recycles energy but 8 is too little, plus the random Rescue Energy seems a bit redundant with Revive.

-2 FSL (Revive gets your pokemon back and Eelektrik deals with the energy)
-2 Twins (This is a speedy deck. This card doesn't fit here)
-2 Great Ball (This card is just horrible)
-1 Rescue Energy
-2 Eviolite (Far too many tools)
-1 Revive (3 will suffice)
(-10)

+3 Thundurus (Reasons stated above)
+4 {L} energy (enough to ensure a T1 Charge plus you will need to manually attach)
+1 Pokemon Communication
+1 Tynamo (i find that a 4-3 line helps to better my chances at a T2 Eelektrik)
+1 Professor Juniper


It isn't perfect, but it's a start. I'm still quite unsure about Pachirisu being in the list, putting my fixes aside - you play 9 energy in total, and a 1/1 Pachi-Shaymin split. ZPST run 13-15 energy a 2/2 Pachi-Shaymin split and still pull off the T1 set up 50-ish% of the time. It would be easier to achieve a T2 set-up with Thundurus.

Thanks i'll update my deck.

What makes great ball horrible?

Well, first off, It really doesn't help. So many cards in the game just ruin your chances of getting nice cards, and your opponent shuffling them.

X Empoleon got the energy issue, you really should run some where between 12-14. I'm so confused with why you need Pachi? I'm also confused with Shaymin.

If it were me, I'd really suggest getting rid of them. They can help, but don't do much.

-1 Pachirisu
-1 Shaymin

+2 Electric energies.

Great Ball might give a pokemon from the top 7 cards of your deck, but it won't always be a pokemon you need. In a clutch situation where you need a specific pokemon to ensure a KO or ultimately win you game, would you rather use a card that guarantees you that pokemon (In this case Collector and Communication) or leave it upto chance?

OK thanks.
