Looking to get some input on my deck. Recently got back into pokemon after 10 years of retirement. All advice is welcomed and appreciated. Primary strategy behind this deck is obviously get eevee out start with espeon gx and use psybeam for confusion and physic for ones that really use energy. Then prep garbador for couple turns while they use item cards. Espeon ex is in there to knock out for active retreaters on evolution pokemon especially useful with st 1 and 2 gx, megas. I know something tossed around with eveeloutions deck is the AOR evolutions. Did experiment with it, but did find much use in it. 9 times out 10 got one when i always need something else. If you guys could let me know what you think i would appreciate it thanks!
 
Interesting... Since I do like Espeon GX a lot, and do want to experience with Garbador, think I'm gonna try a few games in Versus mode (TCG Online) with this deck!

I'm thinking about adding a Tauros GX here (perfect with DCE, and a real threat with it's GX attack against any Pokemon which doesn't 1HKO Tauros), or replacing Espeon EX with Tauros GX...
 
Hi Pokémoncowboy1991,

Nice deck. consider these modifications:

Pokémon:
- 1 Espeon EX (not worth the effort. Most decks do not run that many evolution lines and the deck does not need it that bad. Would rather run a second Tapu Lele GX)
+ 1 Tapu Lele GX (it is a nice attacker with no weakness and a low retreat cost. In addition it can help a lot to set up.)

Trainers:
- 1 Energy Recycler GRI 123 (not needed in this deck. Run Super Rod instead)
- 2 Trainers' Mail ROS 92 (not needed with the added draw and search power)
- 2 Professor's Letter XY 123 (see above)
- 2 Team Flare Grunt XY 129 (not sure that enrgy discard is needed in a deck that can 1hko or 2hko)
- 2 Nest Ball SUM 123 (Ultra Ball is much more versatile. Run two additional Ultra Ball instead)
- 3 Crushing Hammer SUM 115 8see above. In addition odds are they will only remove 1 energy card due to the coin flip requirement)
- 1 Parallel City BKT 145 (personally I prefer Altar of the Moone in Garbodor decks)

+ 1 Professor Sycamore (beat draw supporter)
+ 1 Bridgette / Pokémoin Fan Club (helps to search out your evolving Basics and thins the deck at the same time. Remember that Tapu Lele GX can search for it T1)
+ 1 Delinquent (it is nice to force the opponent to discard three cards from their hand and their current stadium card in play. They may discard items)
+ 1 Hex Maniac (great card to shut down the opponent's abilities such as Shaymin Ex, Tapu Lele GX, Eevee, Octillery etc.)
+ 1 Super Rod (more versatile resource recovery card)
+ 1 Choice Band (Yes. It is that good)
+ 2 Ultra Ball (best Pokémon search card available because it can get everything and works well with come-into-play abilities such as Tapu Lele GX)
+ 2 Field Blower (tools are common and discarding them increases the damage output of Garbodor)
+ 2 Altar of the Moone (free reteat is awesome and you can always discard it with Delinquent to disrupt the opponent.

Since we now have one slot open I would add the eight Basic Psychic Energy to the deck. Hope this provides some initial assistance.
 
Thanks for all the input! Definitely would like to add in another tapu lee, just have the one for now though. No shaymin ex either. Could you recommend another in place Dark Espeon ? The tauros gx isn't a bad idea just worried about the draw support. Again thanks for all the input look forward to trying the changes out.
