Hello! This is more of a fun/cheap/reckless deck I've been working on. Let me know what you think!

Pokemon:

  • 4 Riolu LTR 79
    4 Lucario PLS 78
    4 Yamask PLF 55
    4 Cofagrigus PLF 56
    1 Jirachi-EX PLB 60
    2 Landorus FRF 58
Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums:

  • 4 Professor Sycamore XY 122
    4 N BW100
    1 Lysandre FLF 90
    1 Fighting Stadium FRF 90
    1 Dowsing Machine PLS 128
    4 Ultra Ball FLF 99
    2 Evosoda XY 116
    2 Bicycle II PLS 117
    3 Random Reciever PLS 138
    3 Silver Bangle PLB 88
    2 Focus Sash FRF 91
    2 Switch XY 38
    1 Startling Megaphone FLF 97
Energy:

  • 5 Fighting Energy
    4 Double Colorless Energy
    2 Strong Energy FRF 104

Strategy:
Cofagrigus uses "Six Feet Under" (knocks itself out, dealing damage to opponent's pokemon) to strengthen Lucario's "Hurricane Kick" and to strengthen N. Landorus can be used to accelerate energy. Since everything is squshy, and since you're giving up prize cards, this deck will (hopefully) either quickly win or quickly lose.
 
ok, I've been working on this deck as well - haven't seen much on it, maybe we can brainstorm.

I tried Jirachi, and didn't like it. The supporter, I find, isn't worth the eventuality of my opponent Lysandering the Jirachi out and denying me 2 potential Cofags (and, thus, damage potential). I also considered Landorus, briefly, but decided on Milotic instead, since she sets up a Lucario in 1 turn out of nowhere.

Evosoda I found superfluous, with my build, and I'm completely confused by Switch...of course, my actives always KO themselves, so I never NEED to retreat - difference in playstyles, I suppose :p

I'm also in the air about Focus Sash over Muscle Band. I understand the theory, but I'd rather secure a KO, myself...

I went a little thinner on the Cofagrigus than you, since I find I'm Junipering them away more often than not, and tossed in a Sacred Ash instead. Since I'm playing (somewhat) out of my discard, I'm finding Milotic to be a great addition - lategame she's an extra prize (and more damage as a result), and sets up a Lucario from literally nowhere.

I'm also using Ditto - it seems a little strange, but it works wonders with the Skates/Bike engine - I may thin him down to 1, untimately, but thusfar, he's kicking ass. Essentially, it lets me throw a Cofag, Milotic, or Lucario at my opponent from almost nowhere. This has helped me many times, partly because it means extra damage, and partly because it lets me empty a hand more efficiently for use with my Bikes.
